How does someone accidentally spend upwards of 60K?

And as they say, pictures or it didn't happen.

And congrats!

Pics as soon as possible Kristina & I wish you the best! Also, please stay around!

Thank you, Tracy!
These pictures may have to wait for a long time maybe. All process takes time.
Anyway the truck is physically there.

Do the Ranger Raptors there get the same 3.0 V6 Ecoboost and 10sp transmission as the US Ranger Raptors?

Outstanding choice on the color! I saw this one and just loved it. I even like the graphics! Best of luck!

That thing looks like a Maverick front end. Didn't take long for Ford to destroy the 5g unique look. Maybe they should rename it the F150 sport or Maverick Big Bend.

I refused the tailgate damper, so there goes also 5 hp?

each sticker is +5HP so you'll be fine

pics please

Think of it this way, if you stick around here you’ll have bragging rights for fastest Ranger ?

I didn’t order stickers also…

Some of you know I took a test drive with a Raptor just out of curiosity. It was in may. Curiosity turned into serious interest but no action was planned yet. I just did what I did
And suddenly one V6 popped out just for me! I’m still unconscious as there are none available at the moment and I didn’t expect that. Positive words to my dealer.
Next days will show if stars align for me enough to complete this deal and you can kick me out of this crooked parking 5G Rangers forum or I’ll stay for a while more.
And you’ll never guess the color

So, we'll be seeing you soon on the "crooked parking Raptor" forum...

the 5g unique look

One of the things I like about our trucks is the unique front end. I think the 6G looks fine. But I ordered a 5G specifically to avoid the "baby 150" look of the front end. That said, I'd bet a beer and wings that the majority of people, Americans specifically, will prefer the baby 150 look.

Regardless, if I could afford lots of toys a 6G Raptor would most definitely be in my garage! Blue of course.

I agree, but I'm the odd ball, I only really like the classic American cars/trucks. For most modern vehicles I prefer European or Asian. I for one will miss the ROW design influence on the 5G Ranger. But I'm not upgrading anytime soon, maybe by the time I do VW will get the Amarok here. Daughter works at the VW dealer so I should be able to get some deal on it, maybe.

Yes, that’s the color, close to red, not so orange. Pops out and plays with light.
No graphics on mine.
Black and code orange create very beautiful combination together and you can see that in real better than on pictures
