Manual locking hubs would be great.

I don't think the SVT team will develope the Raptor any further though.
Fords sales on the current Raptor platform is going great, so they will not spend much money on new tech and tooling.
I hope I'm wrong, but we'll see soon enough.

If they are not planning to change anything, why are they so quiet about upcoming changes?

I honestly don't think there are gonna be huge changes unless one of the competitors comes out with something to steal sales away. I wish Toyota would step up and build something because I know they can give the Raptor a run for its money. Not that I'd jump ship, but I'd like to see this niche market grow. Competition is good for everyone.

Another nice one would be factory installed off-road lighting. Like 20" in the lower grille.

1) Ditch Stync... sorry Sync
2) Incorporate a third party GPS in the dash that will accept maps and data instead of the paved road only navigation it currently has. This is an off-road truck.
3) Suspension and frame upgrade with 37" tires
4) No Ecoboost - there are people I know that are having major problems with it

more aux switches and a complete nanny delete mode

How about just an actual switch for each of the nannies, or even another knob that has positions of normal, sport, and off. Holding the TC button sucks.

I don't now that they will or not. It's just my opinion.
Not much was changed for 2013. HID head lamps is not a significant change. I do like them though. I also liked the bead lock wheels that came out in 2013
Actually I thought the SVT Raptor would have significant changes every year.
The biggest evolution to the raptor was the 6.2 L engine. That was great.
I would like to see more changes including a beefed up suspension, which should have been added in 2013.
For 2012 the Torsen front differential was added along with the new style wheels that allowed for the wheel weights to be installed on the inside of the wheel.
As I posted before. I would like to see manual locking hubs as an option.
It's an offroad beast, not a damn cupcake.

*Bump stops
*Dual Batteries
*37" tires
*Gearing options
*3.0 shocks
*Ecoboost option
*Anything better than the flimsy stock running boards
*More aux switches

..... I could go on for awhile lol. As with all my vehicles stock is never good enough. However, if they came from factory with all my desired mods, I'd still find more I wanted.
