this..

^and the people that buy this rig (hopefully) are people who recognize the truck for its sole purpose..to haul ass/perform offroad...its not your typical "work truck"

more like a over-engineered truck that in stock form can win Baja races. my roommate of last year from CT had a lifted diesel on 37s, I asked him if he took it offroad, his reply: "yah bro, i take it on dirt roads sometimes, ..... bro". don't get me wrong diesels can be sick, but personally i see more douches driving around over lifted trucks with no purpose other than showing off.

Kid speaks the truth

and geteducated this truck was built for a specific purpose and its not built to compete with "lifted diesels"..the raptor doesnt have much of a lift but rather a huge amount of wheel travel and low cog among other things

this is probably the only pickup truck I could ever feel remotely excited about.

one thing I would like to point out is just how wide this thing is. I saw one in person the other week and it was just MASSIVE.

yeah its a sick truck and im sure lots of enthusiasts will buy them but im sure more than most of them will be condemned to a life of tarmac. that being said i want one and would do things off road with it.

I drove one of these things last summer. The suspension is ridiculously soft, and the performance is just ridiculous for a truck. Most fun you will ever have driving a truck. If only I could afford one.

Not to mention an interior that is nicer than most luxury cars.

i just bought a truck... that probably gets worse mileage than one of those...

350, into 4.10 gears is not a green option.
