2012 Ford Raptor SVT

The car I chose to write about this week isn't really a car at all but I do love it and hope to own one someday. This vehicle is the 2012 Ford Raptor SVT pickup truck. This truck emerged from the Ford industry in 2007 and is still going strong today. Under the hood is a 6.2 liter V8 that produces over 411 horsepower and go 0-60 in 6.9 seconds. I'd say that's pretty fast for a truck. In 2012 Ford introduced the blue color scheme to the Raptor. Over the past years they have stuck to the orange, silver, and black for their trucks but they decided to change things up a bit. They put a racing blue interior inside to match the paint on the outside of the truck. Overall this truck is one of the most aggressive and nicest trucks on the market today. Although there's no other truck that can withstand the punishment of driving through the desert at triple digit speeds like the Raptor can, less hard-core off-roading pickups include the Ram 2500 Power Wagon and the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 equipped with Z71 off-road package.
