If it happens they're still two completely different kinds of trucks aimed at two completely different markets...but I'm not holding my breath for the 'Raptor'.

If your into the off road thing, it would be cool to go to your local dealer and order up a true off road capable vehicle, as for the turbo possibility-I just don't see it, with all the parts available off the shelf for the current crop of blower cars, do you see them re engineering the wheel? I don't, would I want it over a real gen 3, ah, no, but it cool in it own way, to each his own.

they both will occupy their own areas of "cool"

Lightning = Street and track performance

Raptor = Off-road performance

Looks like they should leave the "Raptors" to Yamaha

If given the green light, the Raptor could be a year-and-a-half to two years away. Stay tuned.
