Well i wont lie i am 21 years old and i have always been a chevy fan and dont get me wrong i still like them but chevy has fallen off. i am currently deploed to afghan and i was looking for a tuck to buy nothing fancy just like a 03 04 chevy or something. Now i dont know about u but the newer trucks look like s**t. Untill one day i can accross the 2010 F-150 SVT RAPTOR now its alot more than i wanted to spend but i saw i wanted and i bought lol so when i get back to PA in march 2010 i will get to see my RAPTOR for the first time. I take my hat off to the ford motor company they made a badass truck just wish i could have gotten the bigger engine but i will just chip the hell out of the 5.4 as soon as i see it i will post some pics

I don't mind the Denali GMC trucks, but the grill is what makes it so much better looking. The side profile of the GM's is still blah with the barely noticable body lines in the bed, might as well not have even put them on there.
congrats on the ew truck, and THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE. I have two in the military, daughter in Air Force, son in Army Reserve (trying to go over to sandbox). What branch re you in, and where are you stationed? Oh yeah, have a 97 F150 and 99 F350 diesel. Welcome to the right side of the tracks!!!

OK, In a few months they WILL have a diesel engine designed and built by Ford available for that Raptor you just bought.... you might wanna think about sending that one back until you get word that the engine has come out.... Good news, It's blueprinted, built, and tested by Ford. Bad news, It's a NEW engine, and the 6.0 has made everyone a bit gun-shy about "new" diesels.... I'll post more when I can.

Thanks for your sacrifices dude and enjoy that awesome new truck. I'm ready for a new F150 but the wifey is totally against the Raptor (afraid I will go through alot of tires and gas!)

I have heard nothing of a diesel for the Raptor. They have the 6.2L gas engine which will be coming out soon for the Raptor and possibly the high-end F150's (Lariat, KR, Platinum), but no diesel. The new diesel is for the SuperDuty's.
