If it does come to market, I'm not sure the 37's will. Like most are saying with dodge and that engine, they could try and ask to much. But this will be good for raptor owners though, competition. I would love to see ford offer a v8 raptor. I have my 2017 on order, but when the time comes around to replace the 2017 hoping for a even better raptor with a v8.

if only Ford would create a twin turbo V8 there would be no competition.. could get 600 and 650 without an issue i would suspect.

Do not even need, twin turbo. They just need to offer a supercharged 5.0.

I was able to build a 2017 3.5l EB Raptor with 700+ hp with the stock block... on Forza lol. Blast to drive, but rally racing a 10speed with essentially paddle shifters is very very tiring lol

My paddle shifters are going to be mostly for looks. The automatic transmission can probably shift better than me.

I wish I could learn to drive like the guys in the video. Like nasty said, mine will just look good. I will try it out a few times and that will probably be it.

With my oldest Son just starting college I'm not ready to buy a Raptor but will be paying off other bills and saving for a time when I can once he graduates. I pray by then Ford will come out with a twin turbo charged Raptor V-8 edition!
