New Raptor Owner!

[jchawk]

Hey guys -- I just wanted to introduce myself.

I picked up my 2017 Ford Raptor a few weeks back just before heading out to get married/honeymoon. The dealer called and said it had arrived a few days sooner then anticipated and I just couldn't resist picking it up.

I took her out yesterday for a spin and now have a whooping 80 miles on it.

Honestly this is the most fun I've had with a new vehicle. Even my wife committed that I seemed visibly happy driving this beast.

I live just North of Pittsburgh in Gibsonia PA and I'm looking forward to reading the forums! Seems like a great group!

Will do -- after yesterday I understand why the tailgate step is probably worth the money. My fat ass couldn't make the jump on the side step, fell off and rolled my ankle.

Only thing I would change is adding that tailgate step!!!

We'll, not an owner yet but will be ordering tomorrow most likely. I currently own a 15 Lariat FX4 and owned a similar 13' prior to that. It will be a long anticipated wait, I hope it's worth it !

I think at this point you'd be ordering a 2018? I'd say go for it -- awesome truck!!!
