If the "speculation" is correct, the Raptor would be the 1st SVT vehicle to have a 6 year production run....

Cobra was made from 93-2004. No 'regular' Cobra in 2000 but they released the Cobra R so technically that's an 11 year run.

No Cobra in 2002. So technically an 8 year run.

Meh, they still made them continuous or not but you are right - I forgot about the pause between the N/A Cobras and the S/C versions - so that's 10 years of production, technically.

How long has the lightnings ran for? And the SVT GT500's ?
2015 I knew was out the picture. 2016 i might consider purchasing another. I hear of an SUV SVT Raptor. Or is this just a custom order thru 3rd party?!
These trucks are really setting off due to the screws I believe. I just can't see Ford not getting their hands greedy while they can.


Method NV/37's
Boatec front and Rear fenders
Rigid dually's in fogs
FOR NOW!

Lightning was 93-95 & 99-04. GT500 is 07-current.

SUV Raptor is done by a 3rd party. Hennessy if I'm not mistaken.

There's a couple other shops out there doing them. Probably cheaper too.

I was going to buy my first Raptor soon, but after watching this....

I've decided to wait and see if an EcoBoost on roids is offered with the new Raptor.
