This beast is powered by a V-8 engine that spews out 400 horsepower and 400lb-ft of torque;  which is necessary when climbing incredibly steep hills or blasting down a dirt road at impressive speeds.  Fuel economy and emissions are actually a bit better in this 2010 F-150 than previous years due to Ford’s open valve technology.

As with all Baja trucks the proof is in the suspension.  And the Raptor is no slouch.  The running track has been widened 7-inches compared to a stock F-150 and chassis has been modified to allow for much more suspension travel in order to absorb jumps.  The last piece of the puzzle is the hi-Tech Shock Absorbers from Fox Racing Shox.  These little gems include an internal bypass feature which allows the Raptor to have a comfortable street ride, and an excellent stiff off-roading ride.

The electronics on the Raptor in clued things like hill-descent and an electronic locking differential which are necessary when navigating the desert.    The Raptor will be available soon!
