If they made a smaller version, it would be our next toy.

I like it! I can't see myself spending that much on a vehicle anytime soon, or buying another new-off-the-lot car ever again, but a crew cab Raptor would look very nice next to new-gen Mustang GT in the driveway.

There are a couple of older raptors down here (they come in from the bigger towns). They are UGE! They barely fit in San Miguel -- not even crew-cabs.

My buddy had a 2 door Raptor. Awesome truck. He kept it a little over a year and basically broke even selling it. The used market is nuts on those.

I wouldn't mind trading in the ST for a new Raptor, we never have a truck when we need one. I imagine the daily driving would get old fast.

A friend has a twin turbo Explorer, loves it. A few tweaks - big downpipes, underdrive pullies, re-MAP, etc.
The think is deluxe too.
