Damn Ford Raptor Trucks Posted by MI-Roger [Email] (#882) [Profile/Gallery] (more from MI-Roger) on Tue, 1 Nov 2016 17:20:17 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
One unique feature of living in the greater Detroit area is that Ford (primarily) and Chrysler (to a lesser extent) test their upcoming vehicles on the public highways. FoMoCo is currently busily testing what must be their 2018 or 2019 Raptor pick-up as the grille is even more sinister appearing than the 2017 models on Dealer lots.
This afternoon they had another fleet of three of these vehicles on I-94 during evening rush hour, followed by a full size SHO sedan as the chase vehicle. Clocking a steady 70MPH in the center lane they created a moving traffic jam. The convoy was maybe 200 feet long.
We needed a Basketball Ref to blow their whistle for a moving screen and get this log jam out of the way!
The grille is pretty cool looking, very much "in your face" styling.
