Will Ford make a 2015 Raptor?

[Baja Jones]

The Ford marketing guy at TRR 14 told me all of the 2014 production has been allocated (ordered by dealers or individuals) 80% to CA, AZ, and NV. Although Ford has made no final decision on exactly what the next gen Raptor will look like he speculated the new truck would have an in house aluminum nose instead of out sourced glass. He also said in his opinion it would pop as a 2016 late summer- fall of '15. He also may have speculated that they may do a post production run of 2014s after scheduled production had been built out. I honestly do not remember if I asked him that question or made it up in my head because it made sense to me or he told me that. Sorry I am suffering from the Mad Cow Disease

Gen 2 Raptor will be out late next year, 2015, as a 2016 model.

As for the motor...

I know this isn't exactly Raptor specific, but some order and start up dates for the 2015 F-150 have appeared. More importantly, the final dates listed for the 2014 F150 could help some of those getting 2014's.

So it looks like May 23rd is the last day to order and will be building them until August 24th?

Interesting that they have a start up date of 10-20 for F-150 with a 6.2!?

Found this, hopefully it's true, looking forward to becoming a Raptor owner soon.

Haha. They are showing a 2012 or older interior. Lame.

I doubt it's true, or the 2015 will come with a 6.2 SOHC v6 lol

A 6.2 liter v6.....I love it. Haha

Yeah and 155mph limiter. Wonder what tires they plan on using for that speed and offroading. Article has bogus all over it, looks like one of those Onion news post.
