As an F150 Ecoboost driver, I've got to believe this is going to be a rocket.
Our stock, supercrew, XLT, Ecoboost runs 14's in the 1/4 mile, at 94 MPH (hits the speed limiter) Cutting 1000 pounds from it will make a significant difference.

Is it called the "tremor" because that's what you get, when the monthly payment comes around? Or from filling the tank?
:lol:
[Sorry, just struck me as funny.]
It actually sounds kinda cool. I could do w/o the graphics package, and I think it'd look better if they lowered a bit, like 1-2" in front and 3-4" in the rear, not slammed but just with the wheels filling the wheels a bit better. Seems like an appropriate use for a turbo motor.
Don't get me wrong, it strikes me as a toy of a vehicle; I've got no use for one. But if I had money to burn? One could do worse. I think I like it better than the Raptor idea, which, for the most part, I doubt ever leaves the road.

Not a Ford guy but this looks pretty fun.
Comments are right...needs the GT500's 5.8L V8. Bring back the Lightning!
My neighbor has a 13 SVT Raptor. OMG! Gigantic engine running 5w20
Sounds like a fun truck but that might be the dumbest name ever for a truck package.
Agreed on lowering it a bit.
By keeping the bed and bed sidewalls as high as absolutely possible, it would appear that Ford doesn't want their customers to be able to reach over the side of the bed, and be able to grab anything out of it.
Every truck doesn't have to look like it is a 4x4. However, the designers at Ford must think it is a requirement.

Oh yeah!
Pretty cool for someone who misses the Lightning's. I would also lower it just a touch. Add an exhaust, CAI, and respectable tune such as Livernois and this baby will haul. Should be pretty quick in stock form though.
A nice tune and it will run. Two hair dryers have never been much of a recipe for longevity, though.
God bless the early adopters!

I like it, wonder if I can get the stripes off of it...
(need stripe delete option for this and the FX appearance package)
For $27,000 that sounds like a deal... somehow I doubt that will actually be the price.

You got that right. How about a little additional markup?

The dealer's 'market adjustment' will stick it in the low to mid $30k range.

We all know they will charge as much as they can.

I like the idea of a quick, RC/SB sport truck, but kind of wish they would do a little more than this.
The EcoBoost will certainly make it fast, but I still wonder about longevity/cost of ownership with that engine.
I'd rather see a Boss 5.0 RC/SB F-150, with a manual option. No need for stickers.

Yep, nothing sounds like a V8, that V6 sound would be enough to put me off the truck alone.
And nothing is cooler than a full size truck with a stick!
