6 in the over head.

Anyone else notice the blacked out rear wheel wells.

I still didn't see anything about the Browning sticker.....


and they took this right from the meeting we had at Snoball500 with Ford

"Additionally, the new Raptor will feature an off-road-biased selectable Terrain Management system, which enables the driver to select modes to optimize driving dynamics to environmental conditions, including normal, street, weather, mud, baja, and rock modes."

I would have preferred a v8 in the raptor. I remember the born in Baja video they said N/A was the was to go with hot air etc etc.... So what changed? also think the v6 ecoboost is a disappointment in the ford gt but then I think of how great the Nissan gtr is and the possibilities and horsepower gains that they get and can't be touched. I like both of them and the will both prob be $$$$ but right on ford for a great Monday and the excitement to come. They are headed in the right direction

Happy to hear the Ecoboost will be making more power and torque than the old 6.2 V-8. Looking forward to seeing how much the MPG has improved.

10speeds and 500 pounds lighter so MPG has to improve. If not then Ford took a step backwards.

Not too happy with the V6 :/ drove a 6.2L on saturday and loved the sound and feel of it.

Also I agree that the tailgate definitely looks like crap, way too in your face and has the "compensating" feel like someone else said. I like 85% of the 2017 but that 15% that I dont like is making me just want the 2014 I drove even more.

I also like the orange/red stripe on the steering wheel over the silver

I REALLY HOPE FORD IS READING THIS THREAD AND FIXES THIS CRAP!!! lol

Not too shabby, and though I'm a big fan of turbo's the ecoboost sounds a bit ricey with exhaust. It's tough to vacate that sweet V8 sound but as this thing gets closer to showroom floors I might have to seriously consider it.

Don't like the markers in the flare, hopefully that changes.

It wont change. Its so wide the government mandates side markers to be on the flairs.

Ford stole that tech from land rover and it's what replaced the 4x4 system in the new explorer. Just more nannies.

If it sounds like the ford gt then I don't think I'll miss the v8 sound. The gt sounds bad ass
