Awesome. Be sure to keep posing F-150 news in the SD forums.

I never read any sub forum other than this and the gas 6.2.... and I was glad to see this post. If this truck were available when I bought by 2019 I would have seriously considered it!

I’ll be real interested if something in the next gen uses the 6.2 or 7.3!

Panties fully unbunched. There’s also some exciting news about the 2020 Ford Mustang. I’m glad I know the right forum for that: 2017+ SD forum for the win.

Tricon has been nothing but helpful to a lot of people on this forum when it comes to the super duty. I read many of his suggestions over time and if he wants to post something about a raptor then I think he’s earned the right. And people wonder why America is fractured politically ect. Everyone has to be “outraged” about something.

Politics? Outrage? Where are these ideas coming from? You. That’s where. I think you answered your own question about why things are askew. Cheers

I'd buy a raptor in a heart beat soon as Ford comes to its senses and puts a real truck bed on it that could fit more than a small cooler of beer.

They should come out with a Power Wagon competitor with the new 7.3L. I'd be more interested in that.

Just curious, what level of helpfulness must one reach to be able to post stuff not related to the particular forum? This is 1 of the many reasons this forum is so disorganized and hard to find info on a particular subject (and why many dont use the search function).

On top of that, it has not been confirmed, (sources remaining anonymous on 2-3 year plans to a magazine company) so the subject is a little misleading.

I'm outraged that you're not outraged by his outrage.
