AWESOME! can't wait to see this truck. I really like that SVT is bringing a truly unique vehicle to the sales floors.

one of the comments below the article stated that this thing would be the first to be getting the new boss V8. Can anyone confirm this?

It's most likely the first vehicle we'll see with the Boss if it hits at LA or NAIAS with the engine.

Sound little too good to be true.

This spy video just came out today, there is no way production model can be introduced in the next few weeks.

It's a pre-debut teaser vid, some press outlets have already seen/driven the "finished" product. They're just waiting until the last second the drop the wraps.

Since we haven't heard anything lately on the BOSS engine, I'd suspect that it's the reason we're waiting on the Raptor.

Probably see something this autoshow season.

It's a Ford released video and just because it just came out doesn't mean the truck isn't nearly ready for production.

Don't get me wrong, I want to see Raptor at SEMA, but I think that's little too optimistic.
