To be fair, the work put in by Southern Comfort Automotive and Lingenfelter shouldn’t be shortchanged. We just expected it to be a little darker than what was actually presented. That being said, the aero kit is pretty comprehensive, thanks to a Southern Comfort and a Supercharged Reaper Package.


Then again, the Raptor is tuned by SVT. Although they are part of Ford it isn't "technically" Ford.

But you're just a Ford fanboy anyway. No convincing will help.

I still think the Raptor is king. We'll see what this brings.

And GMPP isn't technically GM? SRT? TRD? NISMO? AMG? The reason they are called "in-house" is because they are wholly owned divisions within the parent company. So yes, SVT is Ford unlike LPE which is a much GM as Brabus is Mercedes. Stick to 1911's on this one.


All that said this is a crappy attempt. I guess the best that can be said is that it actually has the ground clearance now to allow a decent drain pan for an oil change.
