Not too long ago, the rumormill was buzzing about the possibility of Ford offering a SuperCrew version (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/13/report-ford-adding-supercrew-to-svt-raptor-lineup/) of the brutal F-150 SVT Raptor (http://www.autoblog.com/model/raptor), adding four-door versatility to the already awesome prowess of the automaker's latest pickup. Now, Inside Line reports that Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford/) has confirmed production of the more spacious Raptor for the 2011 model year.
IL also states that Ford will only offer the SuperCrew Raptor with the top-rung 6.2-liter V8 (http://www.autoblog.com/2010/04/09/ford-raptor-6-2-liter-goes-on-sale-nearly-3-000-already-ordered/), which produces a healthy 411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque. Need to get the family across the desert in a hurry? This is the truck you'll want to opt for. We'll wait for the official word from Ford before we discuss pricing, but expect the SuperCrew model to ring in just above the standard 6.2-liter Raptor's base price of $41,995.
Ram Power Wagon (http://www.autoblog.com/model/ram+hd), prepare to meet your match.
