Stopped by the ford dealer today...
They are HUGE. They weigh around 6k.
I dig them a lot though, very trick trucks.
Our crew cabs with Hemis and 20 inch wheels weigh that unfortunately. I am editing my post, I went to the Ford website to see the Raptor. It looks like it would be a good baja truck, not much baha terrain around for me here. If that stuff they were driving on in the movies is it I think if I had those tires I thing our Ram could go thru that course. Doesn't really make the truck work. Looks like it is cuz the suspension is soft so you don't feel the road so much. It looks cool and has the cab and a half which I wish Dodge would come back with. Would make it easier to put the wheel chair in myself, only reason for me to buy that truck. Build one it has that crappy 5.4 then a new engine next year and a different one the following. So everyone will just wait. I would...NOT. Looks cool but not for this fool.

The Raptor(for now) isn't even a qc. All that off-road suspension stuff is heavy. It looks like they will offer it as a qc soon. That'll be even heavier lol.
Definitely needs the 6.2....if not more. They're running a Raptor R in the Baja this year with a tweaked v-6 Eco-boost motor. I've heard a 5.0 eco-boost is in the works, THAT would be sick.
