Does anyone own one of these? I've read all the reviews but I would like to here real world reviews. Would you haul a 24' toy hauler with two quads? Without a company fuel card...

I'm sure it feels like the tranny sucks up most of the engines HP sauce because it's a ford and that's what they do. But other than that does anyone use it for work? How does it hold up to the blue collar baja?

Post pic's I need an excuse for my drool...

Instrument contractor at work has one and the back end is squatted pretty good with just his pak rat full of tools/parts. Coolest looking Ford in alot of years but not sure what it would be like with a load on it - very short bed also.:twocents:

The dealers say they are coming out with a 6.4 liter that is supposed to really cook. The current 5.4 is underpowered to that truck to do what it is designed to do. Pretty cool that you can buy a truck that could race baja right out of the door.

Its a 6.2 and they are already out. The 5.4L is no more in any ford trucks.

I'm not a Ford guy, but I could get used to this truck! My brother just bought one all Black, no splash stickers. It rocks, handels very very well. Very fun to drive, I squared a curb at 60mph and you barely feel it...

Is the raptor supercharged? I saw a supercharged f150 in the parking lot of Home depot on the weekend - at least that's what the stickers said!
