    Ford Raptor

    I think Ford hit a home run here.

    The 2010 F-150 SVT Raptor | The official site of the Ford F-150 | FordVehicles.com

    Untouched market so far by the OEM guys.
    High Performance Off Road Racing Package.

    I like the styling too. Bit pricey at $45k, but you get all
    suspension and power goodies to go right off dealer lot and do
    some serious 4x4'ing.

    Be a long time, if ever, before Government Motors makes
    anything like this. Shame. Already said not going to continue the G8 as the Caprice.
    Volts for All ..... YAY
    2002 Tahoe 4.8 - soon to be turbo'd - SOLD
    1989 Mustang - LX Vert - 351W-TT - 2inches of dust covering it
    2012 Raptor - 497rwhp at 10psi

    I kinda wish I still worked at Ford, just for this truck. But the dealership I worked at has been slowly going down hill since they fired me (Coincedence, I'm not that good) so I'm pretty sure I'd never get the chance to drive one anyway.

    Same reason they went bankrupt in first place.

    Poor management, marketing and upper corporate planning.

    Saw some good interviews with upper ex-managers on the news back
    when they were getting $60billion bail out, pretty much said whole company
    from unions to upper management had a culture of no progress for real growth
    or efficiency.
