Looking at the Atlas concept, I just can't imagine it as a street truck (Lightning). I think it would look much better as a Raptor.

Yeah it would need to be "hot-rodded" up. At least they would already have the necessary motor for a next gen lightning. The '13 GT500 motor should do quite nicely

Looks like most folks want the Raptor though. And it does make more sense to have a truck that's fast off-road vs. street.

Raptor. Sells better and makes more sense. I liked the Lightning, but let's be honest it did have a problem with weight distribution.

Another vote for Raptor. Add GT500 engine under the hood and it would be pretty fast no matter where it's driven.
