The more I look into the Raptor the more it seems a GREAT deal.

Ok, boys and girls here's what I'm thinking. The Raptor is becoming my first pick for a new vehicle. It has so MANY uses and is really cool.


Yep, Brutal may be going DIRT. (again).

Leedom and I just went to Fairway Ford to check out the black Raptor they have in stock. Awesome truck - it looks great. I would for sure delete the graphics though. They also had 2 Taurus SHO's. Very nice cars, but rather large.

Not even close. The fenders are flared to accomodate for the extra 8" of front track with to help increase travel. Fox internal-bypass shocks. Hill decent. Off-road mode that holds the shifts longer. Auxilary switches. 35" tall BFGs. 3 skid plates. This is not "off-rroad" package. This is a legitiamte Baja truck with a factory warrantee!
