That's been my experience as well. It's lacking the soul and character. It was a different relationship. The new one is almost to refined.

Don't worry I'm sure ford will pipe in the V8 sound, so just turn them speakers up!

Im with you, I had a 13 for 6mos. Cool looking truck and all but not for me. Now the new one with a motor finally that's a different story.

Don't do it!!!!! Selling my Raptor was a HUGE mistake!

I sold mine to pay for my wedding.. got a Superduty, hated it.. then got a 2015 F150. Still not impressed.

You got your engines backwards man! You need the ecoboost in the truck and the 5.0 in the mustang!

The last pics I took of it, the day I traded it in. Wasn't a raptor but it was faster off road and on. Talk about character, it had it. I got it when I was 19 on my own had it for 10 years. I wanted something new but the new Titans are ugly. I started building my truck into a prerunner after I saw the raptor concept. These new F150s are nice but if I had a raptor I wouldn't trade it for a new F150. I almost bought a used raptor instead of my F150. I regret not getting the raptor. It was just a bit out of my price range.
