Traded in the cobra yesterday and picked up a brand new tuxedo black 2010 6.2L raptor. Did I lose my ass an the trade, meh not really. The tax savings helped and was able to put a significant amount down. Could I have waited possibly MONTHS to sell the car for more? Sure, but i already had it on the market for 6 months and no dice. Now for the initial impressions. All I can say is wow! This truck is truly amazing. Funny thing is, I don't miss the cobra.....at all! Life changes, so naturally I adapt. Family comes first, and now I can fit all three rugrats in the back. If anyone is considering a new truck, this will blow away all expectations.

Very nice Gene. I love Tuxedo Black on that truck. Now it's time to mod it... you know you won't be able to resist. First it starts as something small, then it keeps getting bigger and bigger. Enjoy.

PM me a price shipped to 85710 on those. I dont think ill be up in Phx anytime soon. I picked up a Steeda kit and everyone is saying the double hook and triple hook are a marketing gimmick

This is true for production vehicles. But the major ford dealerships have the paint and can also mix the paint in their body shops. I have seen it at Bell Ford.
