Broke down and bought a FORD

Hope I don't have to turn in my Man Card because I bought a Raptor. Couldn't help myself. I freaking love it!

I like the raptor until I saw their mpg...lol but that is still a beast so I wouldn't mind buying it.

As long as it wasn't a Toyota, you're fine... Those are some nice trucks.

Welcome the club. I bought a 2014 a little while back too. I love my Raptor. It's the ZL1 of pickups.

My dads 2003 supercharged Harley F150 gets 12mpg also. It doesnt matter city/highway. Must be in the Harley name!! He has a Diablo tune on it, which didnt help mileage, but really did wake it up.
