Thanks again guys.
Try 11-12mpg.

few weeks ago, I added the full exhaust on the ecoboost and it sounded like complete shit. no rumble/roar in it and it was embarasing stepping on it too.
Coming back to Houston tomorrow, doing

I saw a couple of Raptors up here in TO. It looks like a normal pickup from a distance. I only noticed it was a Raptor when I was 2-3 cars lengths away from it.

Oh and forgot to mention, with in an hour behind the wheel
Was an honest mistake but this midget face a-hole wrote me a ticket without even saying a word. And then talks about it and I told him what happened and he says that he already filled out the ticket , otherwise would have let me go.

Are you involved with EVS? I think they had a night meet at 2K12, correct?
This thread has the silver raptor on the lot 2 miles away from me screaming at me every time I pass.

curious to see what the mileage is over the long haul. is it noticeably noisier than the fx on the hwy? If I got one, I think i'd wait for the 2013.

These are pretty good right now. May be after thesee go out.
It's extremely quiet on the freeway. About the same as fx.
Not sure about the miles with the new tires , they're about the same size and same brand.
Rims are Fuel XD 18" and tires are 325/65/18

Got a lot done today , pretty much everything that was on the to-do list
Exhaust
Tint
Front lift
Rims/tires
HIDs
Here is a quick video of it
As far as the exhaust goes , I deleted the resonator and replaced the muffler with Magnaflow.

So many Raptors.. btw.. I know a guy that is starting a business installing twin turbos on the Raptor with tune. I talked to him a month ago as he was just getting the cap to get it going. He's a big gear head.. owns a ten second regal TT and a procharged SRT8 Jeep. I doubt you'd be interested, but if you are, I'll get you his info.

Fuuuuuck
I just realized that between the Raptor and the Viper, you have 18 cylinders, 14.5L, and 911hp. FML.
