Here we go again, another Gen2 thread full of speculation, causing confusion and misinformation.

The 2017 Raptor is not in production yet. So only Ford knows what color door handles it will have. As for the "clean" tailgate, I know what you meant. The tailgate applique will be optional, and there has been numerous pics of the Raptor with and without this applique.

Yes, I like the blue as well.

Some guy who commented on the video claims production will begin when everyone comes back from the plant shutdown on 7/18. I find that very hard to believe.

production isn't set to begin till November for the regular F150... I doubt the Raptor will start before then. Plus if he works at the plant im sure they are not allowed to talk about production schedules at all!

My thoughts exactly. At the same time, I'm ready for some specs at least.

The only thing that would support that is that Ford did say that they were starting up 10-speed transmission production last month. Three months to stock up seems like a long time, but then what do I know.

Wrong, it has the same slider that the 2016 F150's have. There isn't a visible frame like the current Raptor. The truck in this video, is a pre-production vehicle. They use parts which may not be on the final version. Which may or may not be intentional on Ford's part.
