Me too, I could go for some Sunchips actually.
Honestly, it's gonna be more fun since you're over here. Who else can we tag? @RAPTERRIER? @Jake17?

Not all. I've never heard a GEN2. I don't care what they sound like. I wouldn't pay that much for one no matter what was under the hood.
And I don't like Sun Chips, either. It doesn't matter what the F the bag is made out of.
(Silly analogy.)

I like the new raptor, but im content for now. New is almost always better. However...
First of all lets be clear. There is the SVT raptor and the ford performance raptor. I prefer the SVT.
Next the sound...it is soooo bad, ford pipes in v8 sounds through the radio. Lol that is the biggest joke ever!
Lastly the name. Ecoboost. Never liked it, never will. Its like marketing is trying to sway prius owners to buy.
The name eco doesn't sit well with me, like Ecowarriors trying to shut down our offroading areas... Eco+Raptor = water+oil they dont mix.
Eco... Lose it

I agree, and dealer markup on top of that.

@ogdobber has his finger on the pulse, as a great deal about the new model is characterized by marketing. The best example is the phrase "military grade aluminum alloy" in the TV commercials. Lemme see, would that be the aluminum alloy armor on the M1/M2 Bradley Fighting Vehicles, the aluminum skin on the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, the aluminum frame of the pilot ejection seat on the A-10 Warthog........? They're all "military grade aluminum alloys." WHICH ONE?
I was required to take a marketing class in college. Slept through it and got a B. Every marketing major I've ever known was one degree of stupid away from, "Welcome to Wal-Mart." They just string words together without bothering with any scholarship or research into what their new fangled phrase means, expecting the consumer to be just as stupid as they are and swallow the hype hook, line, sinker, rod, reel, and boat. Fortunately, they're wrong. [end of rant]
