[QUOTE="K223, post: 1578888, member: 36701"] The 9k number threw me for a loop as well. Nearly 6900lbs of truck. That’s a lot of weight to throw around and wonder how the components will hold up. It’s also a testament to how much power the 6.2 Hellcat power plant generates as shown by real world numbers. Mileage/range is another thing. Current Raptor SCREW is about 5800lbs. A thousand pound disadvantage in racing/performance is tremendous! Rule of thumb give or take in drag racing was a 100lbs of weight was worth a .10th in the quarter. Ford has a working advantage here big time. While I imagine a Predator engine weighs more, just imagine how quick for one thing a Gen 3 could be? Or just say an H.O. PB 3.5 can be in this truck. Ford has a chance to shine and come back on top if they so choose. Cannot see how not. Competition could make a new Raptor something. [/QUOTE]
