The more I see, the more I like the design, still can't get past the Ecoboost thing though. Hold out for an optional 5.2 and stay happy with where I'm at.

I like the white too and my 2014 FX4 lease is over by next June, so might be an option, however I am sure they will be close to $70K and I would never pay that, may just lease another F150 EcoBoost

I like it also, but like SVT4MT said I just can't get behind the whole Eco-Boost. I know they said it will have more Power/Torque than the 6.2, but I just like to have a V-8 in my Trucks. You can't get the sound & feel of a V-8 from a 6cyl no matter how much Power it puts out. I know Dodge is putting their big Hemi in the Rebel that's coming out, and it doesn't look to bad. But there's just a couple of things with it, the grill will take some getting use to, and I've never owned a Dodge in my life..

Those mirrors look tiny. And Ford over-designed the wheels again to dumbville.
Still, I want one since there are no sporty 4X options with leather and no chrome on the other models.
Is the '17 Raptor only a Screw? No Scabs?

Tux Black please!
Obviously this is pure speculation this early but I have heard from several different inside contacts that there is a V8 planned for the second production run of 2017. Fingers crossed!

I am also weighing my options with the new Jeep Wrangler Unlimited in '17 with Diesel and 8sp tranny. Decisions decision...

I'll be looking to trade in my 2012 FX4 SCREW (Black) for the '17 Raptor SCREW (blue or white)...can't wait.
I chose the V8 over the Eco when I bought the 2012 for many of the same reasons others have posted. But if it's all that's available. Heck, even Ferrari has announced they are doing away with normally aspirated engines and going to turbos.
