Most amazing thing about the Raptor so far: The complete lack of tire noise at highway speed. Anyone who has ever driven a truck with 35" AT tires can attest, you expect a little whining or whirring. This has nothing. Not even with the windows down could I hear it.
My favorite thing about the truck: The exhaust note. At start up. At idle. At acceleration. I'm surprised its as deep and loud as it is. It really has a noticeable rumble inside the truck.
Coolest thing about the truck: The SVT gauges at night when they do their sweep at startup. Wicked evil cool.
My only disappointment so far: Second gear. Maybe it needs to be broke in or there's some kind of learning curve on teh tranny module, but first takes off like a rocket, second just seems to kind of shift and there's only moderate acceleration, then when you start shifting into the other gears there's noticeable acceleration again. I haven't floored it yet as I'm trying to get it past a couple of hundred miles before I really open her up.
Don't get me wrong. It accelerates like a bat out of hell for a 3 ton truck, but 2nd seems to be a little less lively than the rest.
It's bigger than it looks. I think its the tires. You look at it from far away and it looks kind of smallish because you are picturing normal tires in your mind so its like you also picture a smaller vehicle on those tires. But when you get close to it you realize this things big for a half ton. Inside it feels big. I really like the super cab and would not have gotten a crew cab if they had it. This cab is perfect for this truck. I love the shorter wheelbase. It turns on a dime compared to my old super crew.

Really? You smoke? I never would have guessed that.
Hey I smoked for 18 years. I'm not a smoke **** by any means. It doesn't bother me except in restaurants, and they're all smoke free here.
I stopped because I was tired of the kids nagging me and because I refused to pay those **** taxes anymore.

I honestly can't even remember the last time I smoked inside anywhere, its been many years. Always outside, which means I tend to smoke more in the summer because being outside more is like a trigger since I am so accustomed to lighting up as soon as I go out. During the winter I freeze my *** off when I go out, so I tend to smoke much less.

LOL just caught this:
BEIJING (AP) — Chinese scientists say they have found a way for the countless cigarette butts that are tossed every day on streets, beaches and other public places to be reused — in protecting steel pipes from rusting.
The remnants of used cigarettes, among the world's most common form of trash, leak chemicals that have been shown to kill fish and damage the environment. The problem could be alleviated if new uses are found for the cigarette butts.

Thanks Jason. It's just been such a busy day. I just took the wife for a drive finally so everyone's had a ride and I can get some sleep.
I'm so proud to finally have my SVT vehicle. It's already dirty. I took my mom and my wife down a 1/2 mile dirt road we have at 60mph in the dark dodging deer already.![Panic](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/panic.gif)
Everyone should at least drive one of these things once. It's gotta be as close as you can get to driving a trophy truck thats street legal too.

Which means the farmers are paying that. Which means hay prices will suck again.
btw, keep in mind that short guy filling the tank has a Texas drawl.

right! what a croc. thought distillates were the by product for all the gasoline the US uses. Now they really stick you for dsl - and heating oil/kerosene.
I remember when gas broke $4 in 08, dsl was over $5.

Yeppers. Just a couple years ago I remember getting diesel for over 5 bucks a gallon.
I guess they figure that diesel was cheaper a lot of people bought diesel vehicles so they had to do something to make even more money than what they were.
