People that have had no problems with their vehicle don't often post positive buying experiences here for the hell of it. So don't be too gun shy on buying another Ford.  You can find horror stories on the internet for any brand or model.  I have no experience towing with a Raptor but my guess would be it will pull your camper okay although you may experience some rear end sag.Towing enthusiasts here can advise on air bags/spring options and or weight distribution hitches if it is a problem.   Also the payload on a Raptor isn't that high at around 1400lbs.  A regular F-150 might have more capacity.  I'm not sure how this would compare with your Expedition.Would you be satisfied with the lesser amount of enclosed interior space the Raptor has compared to your Expedition?  It has a wider interior but obviously no third row.  Having a bed means you can haul bigger taller cargo than the Expedition although it's not secure unless you buy a topper or a tonneau cover.Although resale value fluctuates with new pricing on Raptors, in general Raptors have historically had higher resale value than most other pickups. If you buy a Raptor and decide it wasn't the best choice, trading it in will be less painful.The Raptor would be far more fun to drive in my opinion.</blockquote>
