What's your thoughts on the 2017 Ford Raptor?

Haha, this is still Ford's truck, it does not have the same exhaust that will be offered to the public so I cannot give a sound clip. I was also told the production exhaust will be louder than what we have.

Lightweight Raptor rival?

If you turbo it... wouldn't it pretty much be a lightweight gen 2 raptor?

love the power wagon just being a jeep owner long time ago can't stand the UNRELIABILITY of them. that being said I wish the raptor would have a front diff and sway bar disconnects

not to start a debate between dodge and raptor but having owned a dodge and a jeep its just has to be a better product! Don't get me wrong everything breaks sometimes especially if you go off road but these dodge/jeep guys just put stuff out there before fulling testing it or even worse is that they know the part will fail

Agreed, while Jeep and Chrysler make some interesting products, the reliability factor is impossible for me to get past. I have NEVER purchased a new American vehicle, the Raptor would be the first, partly because I see how overbuilt it is. And partly from used company trucks I owned since 2001. And I see blatantly silly things that break off-road with Chrysler and they are simply never addressed. Just look at the Rubicon, even with the strongest gear ever made for a Jeep you have to literally swap diffs and the entire front end for heavy duty wheeling. Does have a great t/case though.......

What's the deal with the black front on this silver one from your Facebook page ??

I believe that was a prototype our GM got from Ford to use for a little while.
