Be sure to take lots of pictures. I'm really interested to see what they put in this truck for a drivetrain. That is, if they'll even show under the hood...

Next say the Eco Boost Goes in the New 2015 Raptor and Ill be picking 1 up.
As long as they make a 5.0 ecoboost I am good with that. I still am not a fan of a V6 in truck.

We can hope -- and once they can it, maybe they'll bring the Lightning back again......

The most workable concept i've seen in ages. Some aspects are maybe about 10% too "much" for me, (I'm satisfied with a little less glitz) but that truck looks awesome. Can't wait to see different colors, ext cab and reg cab proportions when this model comes closer to reality. This is a homerun!

I Love it I hope it rolls out of the factory just the way it sits right now and Ford needs to be the first in the industry to put a diesel in a 150 -1500 series pickup .. That would be a Game changer they would sell a millon!!!! Cant wait to put one in my garage!!!

They have the only new truck in the various and meaningless "Truck of the Year" competitions and to hear them talk you'd think they just invented the wheel and the internal combustion engine.....

Yeah, I read a lot of the articles on there just for the comments. Good entertainment.

No, you could also get the 6.2 and I think the 6.5 in them as well.
