the off road-going Raptor will wear MT tires and a beefier suspension
long-travel Fox Racing shocks . Up front, it looks like a heavy duty bumper — with possibly a spot for a winch —

with a 6.2L BOSS V8 underhood, the production Raptor should be close to 420 horsepower.


Ford is going to drive this right up Toyota's a**.

 

i personally dont belive anything those web sites say. to me it just looks like an old spy shot of the regular 09 f150. they sometimes add padding and stuff under the camo so you cannot see body lines and such.

 

I second that

 

only thing i see that is worth noting on that truck is the dual exhaust.....

 

Saw that too ^

Also odd their using a Scab, though they were only doing reg cab's for the "raptor."

 

I'd like to believe that Ford exec's statement about the BOSS.

 

I hope they offer it in a Super Cab version - there isn't any way I can go back to a regular cab at this point in my life.

 

I gotta have one in a supercrew... But by the time I'm ready for a new truck the 2013's will be coming out

 

Also, it looks like that Raptor is wearing 305/65/18 BFG's (the 34" ones). That would be freakin' sweet

 

Okay, I'm sorry, but how do we know there will be a redesign in 2013? Did I miss something? Pure speculation?

 

BigChivas,

One of the online auto sites had an article about 2012 being the next redesign, but DearbornDerek quickly said no it will be 2014. Who knows for sure is anyone's guess.

 

I didn't mean that FORD would have a new truck in '13, I meant that I would have a new truck in '13...
