[QUOTE="nmp1, post: 1375130, member: 34019"] you may see it that way but i dont think ford does. they have cafe standards to meet and the people that daily these things probably wouldnt be happy. raptors are selling as fast at they can build them, so whats their motivation to change things? they are heavily invested in the ecoboost program and its much easy to make power with forced induction. im not anti V8 at all but i look at this from a realistic stand point. if a V8 does come back heres how i think it will happen standard raptor - some sort of ecoboost setup for good power and decent fuel economy special v8 edition (maybe) - v8 with more off road capability and special setup and significant up charge gt500 version - all out crazy truck that dominates all and outruns sports cars. starts at 100k+ and is very low production and hard to get. basically as baja ready as a street legal truck can get.
