It still surprises me just how much attention the Raptor gets. I literally had a guy fall down yesterday because he was walking across the road as I drove by and turned to keep looking, tripped over his own feet. Kinda felt bad on that one. Seems about half the time I leave it parked somewhere for more than a few minutes I come out to find people walking around it. My oldest daughter loves hitting the remote start when somebody is hanging around looking. Always gets a good jump.

I agree 100 percent on the comments! I get them from guys and gals of all ages on a pretty regular basis.

I love my raptor :cool:

Hey your daughter is like me I love sniping with the remote starter & watching them jumping back. Yesterday one of our fellow frf bro came up "Sniper Remote". I think the name fits.

It's funny driving thru an intersection and you'll see people in 3 or 4 different cars all turning there head at the same time following my raptor. Looks like there watching a tennis match lol

ROTFLMFAO, dude, your first post was great. Welcome to FRF!

Hey ! I have a public !

I also found another clever way to recharge the Prius. I tell my my wife to sit in it and slightly press the brakes .... And then I tow it down the street with the Raptor ...

Regenerative braking ;)

The sound is awful, but it saves the planet :)

U got to love eco tree ******* nut bags. I deal with a few at work and they love to brag on mpg and that the prius is the most fuel efficent car ever created. The i throw the mpg of a ford festiva and geo metro in there face and they cant believe what so ever that such mpgs were achieved back then its just impossible. Which by the way it surpasses prius by a good margin had a freind that had a metro and got almost 50 to a gallon. Then they love to pick on my carbon belching choice of vehicles i just tell em i check the sales on hybrids before i make a purchase got to keep a balance going thanks
