Looks like due to the overwhelming and somewhat surprising sales of the Ford Raptor, Ford plans to release a much requested SuperCrew Cab or Double Cab version. The Ford Raptor is currently unmatched in the pickup market. No other automaker boasts a completely off-road ready race truck right off the lot. Ford surprised many people with this venture and its success is a testament to its robust construction and exceptional handling. Many people have requested the SuperCrew Double cab version, and Ford has answered the call. Rumored to be available in 2011 only with the 6.2 Liter V8 to handle the extra weight.
The motor has 411 horsepower and 434 lb-ft of torque. There are no big changes from the current two door model although it has been talked about that the SuperCrew could possibly have a 4.2 in LCD Productivity Screen.
I hope you enjoy some uncamo or uncamoed pictures with no camo of the new Ford Raptor SuperCab.
