Got to admit that green one does look sick. But a raptor shouldn't be lowered. A raptor is one truck made for any dangerous occassion. ie: Rock Climbing

I wouldn't say it was built for rock crawling. Baja - yes, Crawling - no.

A SVT street Raptor is not a raptor it would be called Lighting.

Baja racing just doesnt consist of sand and dunes...there are rocks, a ton of rocks, hills, whoops, rutts, washboards, mud, the list goes on.

If you read any information in regards to this truck (my truck ) they wanted to make it as versitile as possible, and as well to run 90MPH on some high speed trails.

this is why it has downhill decent control, this is why it has a rear diff locker that can be engaged in both 2wd and 4wd, this is why it has 4x4 low and 4x4 high.

I drive my raptor in terrain other than desert trails out here in Colorado and Wyoming. It does VERY well!

Why would you even consider lowering a raptor? I have no problem with dropped trucks, but this has to be one of the dumbest ideas/concepts I've ever heard.

On a side note that hill decent will come in real handy while your going down a parking ramp

LMAO. I love people like you. The concepts were not of the idea of buying a raptor and dropping it/turning it into a street truck. It was the idea of SVT making a street truck out of the raptor body. durrrrr.

Why would you want to use a pre-runner styled body for a street truck? My guess is the Ford design team would laugh in your face at the idea of it...one can only hope.

I'd trust words from my brother's best friends uncle's buddy from 7th grade heard from his twice-removed step aunt before I trusted a word from a dealer
