I saw the Red/orange truck at the dealer a few weeks ago. It was NEAT!!! Not as cool as the Raptor, but I just picked up an '03 F150 XLT FX4 this week after selling my '96 T-bird.

Been driving Ford since I started driving (20) years now. I briefly owned a VW, but was saved from that by my sister crashing it while I was out of town.

You mean how Dateline rigged a GM truck with explosives and made a "report" to boost ratings? They couldn't get the tanks to explode on their own. NBC got their ass kicked over that one.

Is it possible it could explode in an impact? Yes, not but the risk wasn't much greater than a typical under bed mount.

GM isn't the only one that has had issues in the past with gas tanks, I don't even need to point the finger at Ford.

Some good reading:

I even saw a picture online a few years back, a pickup got t-boned, it put something like a 9" gash in the tank itself.

Do the blue ones come stock with the Buell Racing tag on the front like that one?

Nope, its a subtle photoshop to cover up the dealer logo, I found the original on google. Damn, it just looks badass in blue!

Yup, the blue is nice! It would look great with some big Buell Racing stickers on the doors too.

Buell can have the SVT Raptor truck. It would go great with the dirt bike.

They're not bring over the RS. Ford didn't kill SVT. It's had at least one model in production from 1993 to current, except the first couple of years of the new, old Mustang (05-07 I think).
