Cdnrockies · 01-09-2011, 11:53 AM

Congrats!

There's one exactly like the one in the pic in my neighbourhood. Very cool truck.

TK-421 · 01-09-2011, 12:04 PM

that's crazy. what are your plans for it?

Silver-Bolt · 01-09-2011, 01:03 PM

I did order the Flame Blue. 6.2L 411hp/434tq. 11.2" of travel up front and 12.2" in the rear. Fox Racing bypass shocks, 35" tires, etc. It's as close to a real pre-runner you can buy from the factory. It will be my daily driver/play toy. Intake, exhaust, and a tune and it's about 450hp. Add in a set of cams and 500hp is an easy target.

Hennessey's got a lot of options to mod with packages ranging from a 475hp intake/exhaust/tune one to a 800hp TT one.

I currently have a 2006 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 V6 that gets the same mileage as the 6.2L Raptor. Real world mileage not the EPA listed garbage. I can live with 12-14mpg in town.

I wouldn't let Hennessey touch any of my vehicles. They have built some bad ass vehicles but they have screwed far too many customers over the years.

I will get a few miles on it in stock form. Then look at cams and possibly a S/C. Ford has no problem getting 500hp/500tq out of this motor n/a. I would be happy with that as a daily driver. My Lightning I built up to over 600 whp and it was a handful on the street. I will keep this one fun and usable. It will be used as intended.

sysfailur · 01-10-2011, 02:22 PM

I am really jealous. That's a gorgeous truck.
