    Can't wait for the 2017 Raptor! Been watching the forums for awhile, so decided to join and let everyone know there is yet another dude, in AZ, ready to buy up a raptor.

    This will be the biggest truck I've ever purchased, used to rock a Dakota 4.7 4x4 back in the day, and my daily is a tie between a 75 24OD (bought it to grocery get until the raptor) and a 08 Mini Cooper S (selling this bitch ASAP). Going from inches from the floor to up in the air is going to be a fun adjustment.

    Shout out to all the other AZ folks here, and hello to all the gen 2 raptor fans!

    Pics will be available when the time is right! We did have a pretty sweet photoshoot done last week with our new bumpers on it & toyos/methods. This stock photo will have to do for now: [​IMG]

    i sure hope this Gen 2 Raptor fits inside a single door garage door. I am screwed and have to go 2017 F150 platinum 4x4 route if too big....

    don't tell me any bad news, I am convinced it will fit

    I'm assuming the mirrors are still the widest part of the vehicle and they are the same as the regular F150 so it should fit.

    I been reading the fender molding is outside the folded mirrors.

    I have an 08 f150 king ranch 4x4 now, looks like the raptor is wider looking at specs...it will be tight

    If you do not rent.

    The nice thing about Raptors (new or old), they are resistant to sun, rain and snow. They can live outside for their entire live if need be.

    Thinking White or Black, I personally think the plastics look horrible against black paint though, and that storm trooper look works well with the plastics.

    Hope it fit's too! I have a two car garage, but I also have to fit a motorcycle and 75 Mercedes hoopty in there with it.
