I just seen the blue and black raptor, they look pretty good I must say. How heavy are they supposed to be?

I ate a 6.2L Raptor up a month ago from a dig and low roll.

the only motor offered in the Raptor is the 6.2......I personally feel the ecoboost is quicker than the 6.2 in the trucks I've driven. Neither one is as quick as my truck though

After driving a raptor in two wheel drive, in AWD and with traction control off on the pavement I think its WAY slow. Throttle response is slow and doesnt seem to make power unless the engine is screaming. It might feel better in a truck that isn't so heavy. I hated it... until I took it offroad. I was actually impressed. Not so much with the engine but the suspension, it actually works. When the truck leaves the ground you expect a harsh landing but it loves it.
It is the slowest 400 hp Ive ever seen. I think my dads f350 with a mild 6.0 powerstroke would take it all day long. Don't buy this and think your going to beat up on anything save for a prius.
