[QUOTE="matman620, post: 116619, member: 4192"] Since it is a specialty vehicle and most SVT production runs seem to only last 3-5 years before they are put into hibernation, how long do you think they will keep producing them? I would expect that they would continue as long as the money is good (and we all know raptors are awesome), but it is a fairly limited market. Not many people can afford or are willing to pay 40k+ for a truck that is more toy then practical. Are annual sales of under 10,000 (8,614 in 2010 and 1,072 as of March 2011) enough to make it worth it for Ford to spend massive amount of capital to produce such a customized vehicle? Though I would expect that sales would be much higher if the economy wasnt crap and gas wasnt 4 bucks a gal. So how long do you think we can expect to see new models each year? [/QUOTE]
