so glad I could generalize myself into the mold of which you two wanted to place me in.
I only asked because its usually someone that either
A. Can't afford one so they talk shite
or
B. Ignorant kid who is driving a hand me down.
So which of the two are you guys.
FYI. I have the navigation package which only has one Sony 10" sub. Can barely feel or hear it. But the other 11 speakers are awesome.

Makes me think of the BOC song, "Don't Fear the Reaper."

Here are some other options:
C) People who think it looks like a cartoon truck
D) People who like to rile people up on message boards
To be fair, I admittedly can't afford a 45k truck right now, but we likely have different opinions on what "afford" means.

this is the last year for the raptor anyway, so i guess there is no "competition"

You can still buy a Ram Runner kit, and I think Chrysler is still considering making it a turn key vehicle like the Raptor.
I know it's a kit, which is the main thing Raptor guys bash about it, but it beat the piss out of a Raptor in a pickuptrucks.com test...it's arguably a more aggressive/serious kit though. They said the Raptor had much better on road characteristics...which is to be expected anyway.

Afford means I can go buy two with cash and it won't block my ultimate goal of retirement at 38. I don't make many big purchases though.
Afford to you might be "Can I go to Free Drinks at Freds or not."

Ford is 2-3 years ahead of Chevy and gmc in the truck market as is. I don't see them ever catching up.
Hopefully they come to their senses soon and get a better line of engines. My v6 ecoboost flat out hauls fricking arse, Has as much torque as the 6.2 v8 (a hair under).

Okay, now you sound like a typical raptor guy who is full of shite. Buy two with cash and retire at 38? 
Posted on 1/27/14 at 3:40 pm to dreaux
the 6.2 i have is 2 valve per cylider. I think GMs is 4 valves. Anyone know for sure. I would think this would help and why they are claiming 420/462 over fords 411/434
Posted on 1/27/14 at 3:41 pm to jordan21210
Yeah that is the goal.
We may have different definitions of retirement. Just don't want to do what I am doing now or will be doing for the next 8.

I don't know what Freds is. I highly doubt your financial situation, as it sounds too similar to mine and I refuse to believe someone from your ilk and myself share a similar financial plight.
I mean, come on, you drive a Ford Raptor.

I was thinking of a Raptor when the lease on my Range Rover is up. Is it a practical vehicle for a family? My wife has a Lincoln MKT as the family car but I wanted something a little more fun to drive than a RR.

Also, the new 5.0 is light years better then their triton line. I had the 5.4 in my 06. I couldn't believe how much more power the v6 ecoboost had. I thought it was a gimmic.
It pulls about 380hp and 415ft# torque.

yeah its rediculous to think that the tritons held on as long as they did.
Posted on 1/27/14 at 3:45 pm to Pettifogger
hope you get there. I was just raised to not spend what you don't have. I have never had a credit card. The only thing that can sideline me at this point is if I find a chick thats not stupid or crazy or both. They are out there.

I was waiting for you to laugh at that.
