Wow that's really unfortunate. I was really looking forward to this truck. The extent to which Ford has so painfully ****** this up is just incredible...probably because they have a bunch of guys like this dude who looks like he's never laid hands on a pickup before in his life.

Unfortunately that right there seals it for me. No way I'm paying that much more for the SAME POWERPLANT. This is laughable.

I was hoping for at LEAST 475 if not 500HP. Easily obtainable numbers with that engine. Like I said, it looks like he spends more time choosing which pair of horn-rimmed glasses to don than he does understanding his vehicles (and customers), so maybe you're right, he could have misspoken. However, given everything that's gone on this year, I wouldn't put it past them to do this.

Like I said, really just sucks. Had high hopes for this truck.

He also said Fox “line” valve shocks. Even though this is from a reputable person, he’s just reading (and misreading) a bullet point list someone plopped in front of him. Don’t read too much into those scripted power numbers yet.

I am not sure I listened to the same video you did... You probably should buy something else, leave the inventory of upcoming Raptor's to people who appreciate the performance.

If you’re not sure, just scroll up to the top of this page and click the play button on the only video link displayed, and then listen to him tell everyone that they didn’t change the output at all from 2020.

IF this is true, then why has Ford still not released the numbers? If the power was not going to be any different then why would they talk about more torque in the press release to then turn around and not do anything? This is conflicting information.

I cannot remember the last time a performance vehicle was completely redesigned but the powertrain remained 100% untouched with zero bump in power. I am not saying its going to be 600+ HP but i believe he either doesn't have the right info or for one reason or another are not releasing numbers yet.
the regular ecoboost currently has the same TQ with 50 less HP, I am willing to put money on the fact that we get a decent power bump.
