Well folks! I don't think I've shared this yet. My loving wife has decided to forgo her BMW and let me get a Raptor 6.2 instead. Yep, you heard it right. I will have a 6.1 Charger SRT8 and a 6.2 Raptor SVT. This truck is freaking amazing. For those who know me, know, that this video is everything I've ever wanted to do in a vehicle....and its legal!! No worry about tickets...an occasional rollover...but it's still covered under warranty! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUP00Wpj5yI&feature=player_embedded
I absolutely love that thing. But cant justify 2 car notes on a single income. I'll keep rockin my 1993 Nissan pickup:cry:
Holy crap! Yee Haw! you lucky bastage. rollover covered under warranty?... they don't know about the toyota do they.
Passed one on the freeway into work last week. they do look pretty good. I will be expecting to see videos of off road action on day 2 of purchase!!
First time I read about that truck last year I thought "that has Rick written all over it".....Great lookin truck..Congrats!!!
I just want to say that only Bud could get me to open a thread with the words "I just jizzed in my pants" in the title. Frankly I'm not so sure that's a good thing either. :shifty:
I've got a way to go before I get one. I've got to finish this deployment in October...head back out the door six months later, and then I'll get it. I don't think it makes sense to get it when I'm only going to be home for a short time...again! I'll wait for the 6.2 to be out for about a year..which is a year from now....and buy a low mileage used one. Hell, I've have been gone 17 of 24 months by then. I'm not sure I'll ever want to see a desert again. LOL
My brother in law just got back from Again-a-stan. Navy EOD assigned to a SEAL TEAM. Right at 20yrs. One more rotation and done. I have a huge respect for what you guys do and have done. If you're ever on the East Coast I owe you a beer. But promise me that the jizz stays where it should be.
Thanks brother! I'd love to share a beer with you. And I "usually" keep the jizz in an old brown t-shirt these days...just couldn't help myself when I saw the Raptor video...LOL. Is your brother-in-law east or west coast? Luckily, we live an hour and a half from where the video was taken. And, there are a couple of technical areas off-road near the Proving Grounds.
West Coast now. Was in FL at the beginning, came here to Blackwater for some infantry training (muzzled 1 too many SEALS). Then went to TX and now San Diego, CA. He's had an interesting 20 years to say the least.
