(Waiting for more pics of babes with big boobies either riding in or on the new raptor)

That truck is a beast. Will it see much off road time? I love looking at the fenders on these things. Suspension travel for daaaays.

thanks guys
I dont work for anybody. I do a little homework before trading and i cant give away all my secrets but i do help negotiating the price for most of my friends when buying a car. I do lose some money in mods, but i've learned to live with it.
just a few hours ago, it took it offroading for the first time. its at 300 miles now. crazy but this is my first personal car/truck that hasnt seen 1000 miles with in the first week of driving.
There is no loop hole. I still have to pay the taxes on the positive difference when trading in.

his last Raptor took major abuse at the mud trails and jumps.
but oh yeah, i forgot...we're only allowed to talk about Acura's here at Acurazine, USDuMbJON.

So not only the same truck as before... but looks like the same mods. Those lights look familiar.
Are you going to go with the same wheel/tire setup or are you looking at a different setup this time around?

New, cheapest they're 2200 just for the wheels. In that case I'd just go aftermarket. But definitely a different set then before.

Friend sent me a link to a local guy selling beadlock wheels.
Hour later I picked em up and installed them.
I like the beadlock look much better than other wheels.
And unfortunately, these aren't real beadlocks. It's just a freaking trim around the rim. What a let down.
Any ways. Here are the pics.

I can see where you guys are coming from. The pictures are not doing the justice.
I still personally think they look way better than the old wheels, but still not doing it for me. I think i'll be going with an aftermarket setup and bigger tires soon.

Congratulations man! Envy your lifestyle. The Raptor looks sick already. How long you planning on keeping it for?
Like other's have said, none of Acura's vehicles suit my needs/wants. I'll always be around this forum as I don't know that I've encountered a better group of people. AcuraZine is very active with tons of members, which makes it fun. Finding a decent Ford/Fusion forum is impossible. No activity, no members, no content. Azine is just a good place to go to talk about cars with somewhat of a Honda bias.
Fusion. Please. Not the Optima. Its a great car. See thread in my signature.

thanks a lot guys
Im not a fan of the new designs from acura, most of them. I do own a 04 TL which has been giving me a lot of trouble lately. about to get rid of it and get something newer. My dad drives that car. Im thinking about replacing it with either the new fusion or optima.

Ill see if he has anymore pics of it when he gets home/picks it up. He had it towed to a Ford dealer, rented a car drove home for a day and flew back out of town for another week for work.
