MERKURXR4Ti Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 (edited) Caught this on Link Does anyone know anything about this wider, and lower F150? I just found a thread about this on the F150 section... someone in there called it the Raptor (could be the project name), said itll be lifted and be 7" wider with baja tires. I don't know where that page got the idea of lower, though much of their other info is just wrong/stupid (4.4L Supercharged?, 6.1L Boss... and so on) here it is: http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums/index...16974&st=80 Edited December 21, 2007 by MERKURXR4Ti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueblood Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 From what I've read it appears there will be no SVT truck but there will be this Raptor with a blown 6.2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-150 Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 From what I've read it appears there will be no SVT truck but there will be this Raptor with a blown 6.2. Which makes sense. An SVT truck needs to be lighter, lower, sportier. The current F150 is way too heavy to be anything like the Lightning. So to call it something new is okay by me.

P71_CrownVic Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 (edited) wider? I don't get it. That means that there is more vehicle between the two front wheels. Example: Lets say that the distance between the F-150's front tires is 75". And the distance between the Silverado's front tires is 77". The Silverado is wider because it's width is greater than that of the F-150. Edited December 24, 2007 by P71_CrownVic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he didnt understand what wider meant, I think he meant he didn't understand why that 'baja' model would be wider than the regular truck.
