I'll snap up some other pics this weekend.. The interior is very very nice. The Microsoft Sync system is as good as people say. Finally something I can plug my Zune in..

The 6.2L isn't as impressive as I thought it would be. Stepping from my 5.4L powered Fx4 to the Raptor is an upgrade in power, but not to the level expected. Maybe my butt-o-meter isn't sensitive enough in a 6000lb vehicle. If Whipple ships a supercharger kit for the 6.2L, I'll be all over it.

Was thinking of getting this lift myself but was trying to find some reviews on it. Please do a write up after using it to let us know how you like it. Is that the roughly 1500 dollar one? Also how tall are those arms? Trying to figure out how much clearance under the car it gives you.

Nice truck too.

$1800 to my door with shipping and the oil pan..

It lifts the vehicle about 20 inches up.. So, depending on the vehicle, 2-2 1/2 feet off the ground for the chassis. The company claims this is the right height when working off a creeper which sounds right to me. I'll know soon enough.
