So... What do you think about the new Raptor?

[Crikk]

I'm really starting to like how it looks, I just cannot get over the v6. I understand it will have more power, be faster, and get better MPG. I get it. But I don't want it. For me I feel like I would have been counting the days, the minutes, until I could buy one if it would have a 450hp v8 in it. Now I'm just like we'll see how this plays out. I wish with the gen 2 ford would have given us a choice, see how the v6 sell and performs and if it was better use it for the gen3.

Also I was told ford built a new one with a 5.8, one with a 5.2, and the ecoboost. Also said Jamal wanted the 5.8. How much truth there is to that, who's knows, but I believe him. And that is just like pouring salt on a wound.

Does anyone else feel kinda guilty about how we've all been checking out 'the new girl' that's coming to town soon while we have a perfectly "awesome girl" sitting in our garage/driveway? Ya know, everyone commenting on her best features, likes/dislikes?

I feel like one of these mornings my baby won't start just to get to back at me.

 

[Jimbo]

No guilt here. I love my truck.

Nope, can't wait to trade mine in and ditch this 6.2 cast iron boat anchor

Not before I take some parts from it...

I might buy it from you if I can't get over how the new Ecoboost might sound.

 

[Huck]

I don't care how it sounds. I care how it performs.

I understand as I feel that may end being what happens to me when I drive one.

Hahaha, I think that way sometimes. My trucks know what kind of loyalty I have, since I kept my 98 flareside for 14 years in top shape, and I'm sure my 12 raptor will last way longer.
