How about a Raptor?


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
So after driving a few pick ups... I've learned something about myself... I'm just not a lifted pick up guy...

I love the Raptors but, I hate the eco boost and the sound of them. So for me to spend 70k and hate how it sounds... I just cant do it.

I checked out a few pre owned ones... and it seems like everyone beats them... lol. But then again, so would i.

Sell caddy, get srt8.
Wish they had srt8 crew cab rams
Well that's the final plan. We will pick up the srt8 2nite... I've been driving it for the last two days to see if it was right for me... amd honestly it's just perfect. So I dropped it off so they cam clean and prep it about 2 hours ago...

Now just need to find a buyer for the caddy.

Looks great only thing I’d honestly do is tint the two front windows to match the factory rear tint and just leave it as is

Looks great. Those SRTs sound great stock and I’m sure it’s a blast.

How is it in size comparison? It must be smaller then the esky interior wise.

Its def smaller than the esky, but by no means tight and I'm not a lil guy at 6'4" and 280 lbs.

But I'll tell u what, it feels way more solid (I know it's much newer amd that's probably why), but definitely alot more fun to drive.

Sale pending... accepting a decent non refundable deposit.

Only thing is he wants me to give him 2 to 4 weeks of HOLD, but for a non refundable deposit, its a no brainer.

Win/win in my book. Hopefully it's going to a good home.

Well, of all the people that looked at it... this guy was the most excited about all of the mods. He noticed alot of the subtle changes as well. So I feel the happiest seeing it go to him.

And...

If he flakes out, its like u said, win/win cause the deposit stays with me.

Would only take the right truck guy or gm guy to notice the mods and that they were done right and tastefully. Id buy it in a heartbeat if I was local and looking for a ride.
