The one at Robinson in Baton Rouge was there for two days and someone bought it at a nice price of 108k I believe.

Friend of a friend bought it. Waste of 108k imo.

Went into Robinson to test drive a Raptor. Had end of year money from my company and was going to buy a truck (deductible). The Sales guys were such dicks that I will burn before I buy another Ford product and this from someone who has owned Fords my whole life. They laughed when I said I wanted to drive one and then told me that if I put half down they would see about trying to order me one. No choice of options or color, I could "have what they can get."

I bought a loaded out Mercedes GL450 instead.

Saw one parked in Houma a week ago. Thought it was some aftermatket package.

speaking of f150s on Airline, I always see the new black platinum that the white guy fricked up by putting 30" chrome rims on

I guess. It looked like this except in black.



Thought it was a Raptor at first glance.

I don't understand why they made it an offroad lifted truck. They already have the Raptor. Why not make it like the old lightnings? Shelby and offroad just don't go together.

It definitely is.

That Grille looks ghetto tacky as it is brand new on a "$100K truck" just wait 2 years when some latin construction worker is rolling around houston with a load of fertilizer in the back.


The Grille and "Hood Scoop" just amazing.

You certainly can't use a standard rubber hose

Looks like an 8-rib on a jack-shaft to make the supercharger intake from the front. Magnusson used that setup and not terribly good for adding power later on.
