60k! For a ford truck!

56k man! base model raptor is 41k + 15k for hennessey to do his stuff. Any motor corporation can take a normal vehicle and put a bunch of high performance parts (in any field) and then raise the price a bunch to make a profit. Hell, GMC did it in 91' with the Syclone. What other american company took one of their trucks and made a production vehicle comparible to the Raptor?

****, you think the raptor is expensive? I can at least understand that. What i can't understand is the 47k harley trucks. And i should be able too; i totalled one back in 2008

On a side note, im impressed that they didn't swap out the the tires during the performance runs. They SURELY would have gotten better numbers. Kudos to Hennessey for keeping it more realistic.

Bad ass truck and I'm glad SVT is still building vehicles. I'm NOT a truck guy at all but I am a Ford fan and I'm glad Ford can still build impressive things like that. I did like the first generation F-150 lightning and all the SVT Mustangs but I'll admit the GMC Syclone and Dodge SRT-10 trucks were bad ass also. I still drive my old SVT Focus and its still fun to drive Like a Buell, not much power but it can out turn and brake most anything!

Dodge SRT-10 trucks were bad ass also

I like the GTX and the rumble bee. The Rumble is nie cause its 4x4. My buddie with the Cyclone has a GTX as well. Very nice truck when its dry out. Sucks is rain and snow tho.

Raptor gets my vote for best stock truck. Ever.

I have a 2010 Raptor, When I transfered from Kodiak Alaska to Baltimore MD we drove the Alcan. This is the best truck I have ever had.

Good to here. Im torn between that and the Black ops Jeep. Leaning towards the FORD tho. With gas prices now a days tho I may just get a hitch on my Buell! j/k!
