I do not expect it, but I would love it if SVT would make an F-250 Raptor. Think about it. A ¾-ton could have a manual transmission. The've moved the display over from the HD trucks already, so it would be there before they started. I just want my clutch pedal back.

yep it would be nice and then put some bushwacker fender flares

It would still only tow 6500 lbs so whats the point? Just put a good standard trans in the F-150 Raptor.

Raptor Bronco better be way ahead of this on Ford's to do list.

Manual transmissions are not available on any current Ford truck. Not even the 3/4 - 1 tons. If you want a manual in a truck that size, Dodge is your only option.

Forgot to tell you this. Last time when we were talking about the Bronco's and prerunner style ones. About 45 minutes after you left an old prerunner Bronco pulled in with Fox suspension.

Was it fox shocks from a Raptor?

f150/f250/f350 all are the same frame construction/materials. Only difference is shock mounting points, and the like. (according to internets research!)

So yeah if you want a 250 raptor get a custom suspension done up that can handle more payload.

Not exactly...

The F-250/350 is a C-channel frame with different geometry and body mounting points. The frame geometry is also different in the front as it can accommodate a solid front axle. Take a look at this vid:

The F-150 is a completely boxed frame using IFS in all configs (4x2 & 4x4) (note, this vid also shows a Tundra frame):

Also the rear ends are different as are the axle shafts, shocks, springs and leaf springs. Plus they weigh at least 2000 lbs more than the 150. There are differences from the 250 to the 350 to the 450. All 3 are a far cry from the 150.
