I may get flamed a bit for this but, To tell ya the truth it's hard to pay too much attention to it with all the awesome muscle cars around.

I was on the same page but when I was at the LA Auto Show they had one there. There seems to be a ton of plastic on it but what sold me was the video they had running.
This thing was doing some bad *** off road driving. I'd still never buy one but watching that video was pretty impressive.

any pics of the CV's on the Raptor? It looks like its flexed quite a bit.... anyone else see that?

And correct me if I'm wrong, but there's a tow hook on the trailer hitch! That is AWESOME!

They prepped one for the Baja 1000, to run in the stock full size class. Ended getting forced into Class 8, because it wasn't a production vehuicle yet. Finished 3rd in class.

the angles on the front axle shafts look more extreem than the angles on mine with a 2.5 inch leveling kit... I don't feel so bad now. I was worried about it.

The difference being that the Raptor's CVs are designed to run at those angles and greater.
The tow hook on the trailer hitch is a nice touch, hadn't seen that mentioned or pictured yet. The other thing that caught my attention is all the wiring outside the frame on the new trucks. Do the 04-08 trucks have that?
