Well guys..the time has come to switch my vehicles (again) as some of you know the foci's been gone for a while as i moved to another North American made vehicle. But my love for fords was just too strong. So here is my new beast :)

Should be picking her up within the week. So long as I can make my way back home from work. Will get more pictures once she's sitting in my driveway :)
Let me know what you guys think.

Awesome truck choice! Did you get the standard engine, or beefier one?

You bastard! I was seriously looking at the same truck, but I really do need a full 4 doors.
Love everything about the truck.
Now, did you get the seats with the orange inserts?
And there is only 1 option of engine for this truck. FAST.

Man the Raptor is a handsome beast, but I stress the word "beast"
Not a truck to take you mom to the store in (assuming you can even get her to climb up into it :D)

Well.......I stand corrected.
When I was looking this was not an option.

Shouldn't be too bad...It's still simply the 5.4L V8 that any ford has. Just has the offroad capabilities due to ford's tuning.

I've already got my "watering hole" figured out. Just waiting to pick it up so I can "test" my new beast.

No idea yet, i got all the options I would have put into it....Nav...other than that prob just tint for now, the truck doesn't really need much...

And bryan, no I did not get the orange inserts in the seats..i actually think it look hideous unless it's matched with the orange paint. Simple black leather for moi :)

[right][snapback]304871[/snapback][/right]
There's some thinking into going with white..and no it wasn't so the mud would show up lol...All other colours available for this truck are metallic or have some pearl into it. And if i get this beast scratched up, touch ups would be a B*TCH! So i opted for the neutral white which should solve that problem for the most part
And thanks for the input guys..i'll have most pics up once i get it in my possession :)

My Parents have an 06 F-150 Supercrew with the 5.4, and it gets great fuel economy for what it is (mind you, there's is RWD, and with the milder gearset in the rear end).
Nice ride though, and glad to see you're sticking with the domestics!
