    Hi all! I just bought a 2018 Velocity Blue Screw. Really excited about this truck. I'm coming out of a 2010 XLT Screw 4x2. Huge upgrade huh?
    I was really looking at the new JL Rubicon's which are huge improvements over the 01 and 08 Jeeps I had previously. But after being out of a Jeep for so long it just wasn't a good fit anymore. My wife and I test drove a Raptor and she agreed it's a better vehicle for daily duty than a Rubicon. So I pulled the trigger.

    The blue really pops. Nice choice in color and welcome to the forum! Any mods planned?

    Blue is my favorite color. I too looked at the Jeeps but can’t beat the ride of the Raptor and I can haul a lot more stuff in the Raptor. Congrats

    Thanks. No mods for this one for a while. Maybe some pillar lights. Wheels and tires when the stockers wear out.

    I also have an 02 Z06 that eats mod money like there's no tomorrow.
