I know right lol. Consumer surveys are worthless IMO.

I'm guessing there was some spam voting involved. The tell tale sign is the Ford Flex. Its nice enough, and I kinda like it. But there are plenty of vehicles that should have outranked it.

Oh, and if I want to use a $30k+ truck to haul something ... it won't be a Raptor. There are easily half a dozen better trucks for hauling than the Raptor. It would be my #1 choice for racing across the desert though.

I would drive a Texas Edition F150 way before I bought a Texas Edition Silverado...

LOL In don't even think the Raptor has tow rating IIRC.

Awesome truck, just not a truck for towing.

FenwickHockey65 · 06-28-2010, 09:23 AM

An SVT Raptor for hauling?

This is a joke, right? Yeah, it's a great truck, but seriously? That's not even what it was designed for.

^^Winner.

seeing as they picked the 2010 Mustang V6 for speed over the 2010 Camaro? Yeah, I'd definitely say this just confirms the fact that most people don't know #$%& about cars.

- And Yes, i have test driven the 2010 Mustang, and it is DEFINITELY no where near as fast as the Camaro

huh, you'd have to get an SS to be faster than the V6 Mustang and it is definatly more than 30k.

They picked 2011's, not 2010's.

May be, but with all the 13 sec. hype of the V6, no one has been able to get there stock as of yet. They are all running in the 14's thus far. Just sayin.

If I remember correctly, it took quite a while for stock SS owners to get a 13.0.

Isn't that Ford Raptor advertised as a "Baja Truck"

I don't remember it hauling anything jumping over sand dunes....

Well,at least I have one off the list...the Wrangler but hell if I paid $30,000.
They must be talking the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon..............
