Default No crash bars on the 2017 SCrew Raptor?
One thing I noticed when looking at the 2017 Raptor is that it doesn't appear to have front or rear crash bars. Am I missing something? Has anyone seen how the '17 Raptor performs in the crash tests compared to the standard F150? It just surprised me, coming from the regular F150 forum, where you are basically shamed for modifying or removing the crash bars. Thoughts?

Interesting to note the export version of the Raptor does have the crash bars installed.

I'll have to look but I believe I saw it on this site. Chinese bound raptors.

bumper is different on the raptor replacing the need for the crash bars.

those don't have the regular crash bars either. the triangle shaped side of the front bumper is the bumper/crashbar on the raptor.
