Am I the only one in America that doesn’t like the name of my vehicle printed in large letters across the back? heck I even hate when the dealership puts their name on it!

 

Heh. Better stay away from the New Ford Raptor. Cause FORD is bigger than Dallas on the back.

And the front.

I actually like the look of this truck, big logos not withstanding, my only option I’d like to see is an offering in black or gray powder coat with raptor in gloss or a contrasting color.

If we are going to talk about 14 MPG trucks to compare, then the Raptor, a good off roader in the desert, needs be compared to the rock crawler Ram 2500 Power Wagon which comes with a 11k winch and similar heavy guzzling V-8.

In the case of the Ram it is 6.4-liter OHV 16-valve V-8/410 hp @ 5,600 rpm, 429 lb-ft @ 4,000 rpm. A 34 degree angle of approach and ability to go through 30 inches of water leaves the lower slung desert banger in a parking space for true off road use.

Raptor will eat up southwest desert and Baja roads but if you want a Hulk truck version of a Jeep Rubicon that is about the same in gas guzzling, the Power Wagon is the comparison vehicle to the Raptor.
