I was just saying if you want a more practical truck by a regular F150 or similar truck

So I want more power and better fuel economy than the dinosaur iron block 2v 6.2 in my current Raptor, that means I should just lose all the other upteen upgrades the Raptor has, to get a modern engine equipped truck? That also makes no sense. Ford knows what they're doing, and are putting a more powerful, more modern, and more efficient engine in the Gen 2 Raptor so guys can have their cake and eat it too.

No I did not say that. I just said if you want a more practical truck then a regular f150 would be it. Also I still wouldn't call the next gen raptor practical. Gas mileage will still not be great. I like a V8 that's just me. Might change my mind when I drive the new one though.

Porsche just announced a 493 HP flat six, NA!

One-track mind: it

""I love turbocharged engines but for linearity, response, the emotional side, and for myself as a human being, I prefer a naturally aspirated engine, always. And I think most customers are like that too."

Boom!

i can't imagine what that would do to some of the raptor owners... mind blown with a "tiny little V6"

You have to wonder what Ford was thinking even to consider a V6TT for the Raptor. Or perhaps they know something we don't. Actually you can bet that they know alot we don't know about.

I am sure the v6TT will impressed a few skeptics. Time will tell all.

This is the kind of crap we can expect when the 2017 eco boost comes out

Get ready for the tuner crowd.

Hell yea. Run out to the duck blind in the raptor and the ducks will already be on their way in. I hated blowing into a call anyways. Always the worst part about duck hunting.

I am more disappointed with the raptor being AWD and selectable 4x4.

I thought it was one or the other? You have to order it that way.
