2016 Raptor?

"our sources has mentioned that the next-gen off road beast will weigh at LESS than 4,600 lbs, thanks to an all aluminum body on a steel frame... the outgoing 6.2L will be replaced with a tuned-up EcoBoost 3.5L V6, with an estimated “400+ Horsepower”.

That article is click bait. 1500 lbs weight savings? Really? What, they're running without wheels or an engine? It's baloney. Something designed to drive clicks to the site. I would ignore it, and add that site to the list of Internet garbage sites.

I'm guessing they'll retire the Raptor and if a new SVT truck is made it will have a different name.

Good luck with that. Never going to happen. Ford will never make a large 2 door SUV ever again. They have moved in the total opposite direction in recent years. It's over!
I don't see why they wouldn't bring the Raptor back eventually, it seemed to sell pretty well for a specialty vehicle. Or maybe they will go the opposite direction and bring back the Lightning with a real street performance model? The Tremor was really a quarter-assed attempt at a performance model.

My local dealer told me Ford was keeping the 5.4 for a while longer too, 4 months before they announced the new motor line ups. (My fault for not doing enough research)
I wouldn't count on a thing the dealer says. Every time I've been to the dealership I know 2x what the salesman knows about the truck. Never mind what's up coming.
