lol, chickened out on the jump! they are really promoting this truck, its going to be a winner. where i live these good ol boys are going to get them all muddy

i posted the video not because of what the raptor is doing but rather to see a blue raptor. ford has not released any press photos of the blue or white raptor. there is a quick glimpse of a white raptor in one press vid, but nothing other than a small paint chip of the blue.

this raptor is doing nothing more than showing route around the racetrack so it needed to go slow.

a barrett jackson ford was not only taking the raptor off of a jump in the middle of a fast lap they were giving people rides! yes this thing will jump! yes the raptor was made for high speed desert racing!epper:

Nice I like the blue!

Sweet color

With the way this economy is going, this might end up being one of those great cars (truck in this case) that never makes it because of things outside of it's control.

I sure hope not.

damn, I'm having such a hard time deciding which I'd rather have in a couple years... a 400 horse 2011 5.0 Mustang GT or a 400 horse 2011 6.2 Raptor!!!!

 

[TERMIN8TR]

what's the price going to be?

There will be about a $20k price difference between the two, so that may make it a little easier.

the raptor with the 6.2 is looking to be around 45k+ msrp. i heard ford wants to keep the full optioned raptor at less than 50k. pricing should be out in feb.

i want one. Awesome truck. Cant wait till they hit dealers.

It is past February, anybody heard anything about MSRP for this beast? It seems as though they are doing an excellent job on keeping it secret.
