Not as long as the only option is a v6, if they offer a v8 I'm there.

Aesthetically, I still prefer the old Raptor. This one looks even more like a toy... reminds me of a FJ. Don't get me wrong though, I'd still happily take one

In my opinion with the way the new oil companies are screwing us I think that the new v6 will be something to actually want. Ford did say that it will be a new ecoboost, whether its better or not we will see!!

In my opinion and a lot of others as well, nothing sounds like American Muscle like a v8.

I do understand kinda on both sides here, but the ecoboost just doesn't sound as much of a truck when it drives by, even with upgraded exhaust, lets just hope they make a economical v8 sometime soon

WTF? who buys a $50,000 toy and expects fuel economy? That's beyond ridiculous, but here's a snip of my v8's economy when stock.
