Nope won't do it. Don't like the new body style. Don't like V6 anything which is why I got rid of jeep. I will stick with my 14 Raptor and still be drivin when all those V6 s overheat

Curious, how is it that we can put a man on the moon , but we can't make an EcoBoost engine "sound" mean?

I will go on record saying... I have absolutely no interest in the 2017 Raptor. I could list the reasons why, but simply put, I don't care for the appearance of it. I'm not going to knock anyone for buying one, we all like different things, otherwise nothing would ever change.

While completely different animals, in a round about way, its like my '69 Charger (that I no longer have) compared to the new Charger Hell Cat....The new Hell Cat is better in every single way... its faster, handles better, more reliable, more comfortable, its improved in every way. Granted the '69 Charger is a classic, my '14 Raptor is not. I know that.

But for me, my '14 is awesome, improved or not, I think Ford missed the mark with the new 2017, but like I said earlier, that is only my opinion. :)

I will go on record to say:

I wouldn't have a 2017 Ford Raptor shoved in my ass if I had the room for a battleship!!!

There, does that make you feel better?
:specialed:

We don't care what you haven't shoved up your ass yet. The question was will you buy a Raptor? Not what else you plan to shove up your ass.
