SVT-FP Raptor

Only Ford knows that answer.

Well god dammit I wish they'd share haha. Speculation only goes so far. And there's a lot of guys that are dying for another V8, myself included. I think they'd have a more well rounded market if they offered both engines. Then the pavement princesses and the offroad devils would both win

One step at a time. Ford hasnt even released official HP and TQ numbers for the Gen 2 ttv6 3.5 EB yet and itll be in the Raptor this fall.

There is no competition. If GM came out with a comparable truck and sales sagged for the Gen II then maybe you'd get your wish. But given the take rate for the regular F-150 is higher for the EB than the Coyote, why would this be a good business decision for Ford?

Well we know the numbers are going to be decent. Just imagine how much more badass the V8 version would be. Not a fan of turbos myself, but there's a lot more to a truck then how it's aspirated.

Damn I was just editing my post to say that. Great catch.

That's a great first step, clapping for you right now.

I'm clapping too, no handed

After reading through this thread, a few things are becoming clear...actually, no, that's not true.

wow, my thread has veered WAY off course considering my first post.....Since Ford is dropping the SVT off the new Raptor and will just be called a Ford Raptor will it be able to be on the SVT or now I guess the FP registry?
