Deanh Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 so marketing question...best halo...another Lightning or Raptor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZ150 Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 So does this mean we see it without camo at LA auto show? New York? Detroit? It would make most sense in Detroit. Just don't be a concept that never hits the showroom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Gee.... With the helicopter chaser, it's like having a remote control truck...... I suppose someone realized that the F150's frame is the perfect platform for the mother of all off-road vehicles. Somewhere a hippy in a VW microbus is crying.

Well, I think they could all exist as halos for a certain demographic. As large as the F-150 customer base is and as varied as they are, I don't think you really need to define one specific "halo" package. Just market them on their own merits, and let the customer decide which one is their "halo". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think the Lightning has a broader customer base....what IS scary will be MSRP's on either.....my guess 50k PLUS.....sorry for the damper...

94bronco Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait till they drive this thing up Toyota's ass, Let's hope for the BOSS putting out over 400 HP :burnout: Edited October 31, 2008 by 94bronco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wescoent Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 Someone's brain is working at Ford. Talk about building what a REAL performance truck ought to be. Screw a Lightning or SRT-10 Ram, which are worthless on pavement. That looks disgustingly fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White99GT Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Cool! Nice to see life at Ford. 2009 F150, Raptor, 2010 Fusion, Flex, Euro Focus and Fiesta on the way, they really have a killer line-up brewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White99GT Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 Uhhh... I was hoping for at least 500. 400HP would be a major failure... I'm guessing it's got the 5.4 3V, unless Fields was lying about Boss/F150 relationship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That looks disgustingly fun. would be interesting statistically the % of drivers that actually would utilize this trucks capabilty and compare with those utilizing/ desireing on-road oooomph ( ala Lightning ) ....just wonder if they are answering a question that has not been asked ( at least by many ) the Lightning had a VERY loyal following and whenever we get a used one it does NOT last.....

atomaro Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 If the Raptor can develop the same Off Road following as the Bronco, I think it will do fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging by the number of "Z71" Chevy's I see on the road, I think the off-road capable truck has plenty of sales potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
