(the dealer is going to rip you off by putting Raptor emblems next to XL emblems which will make you willing to pay more for them, but they probably aren't on ebay yet so suck it up) While you're at it, I wouldn't just change the rules, go ahead and change the game by badge engineering yourself the world's first Weapon R Raptor. Now the Ford dealer won't have Weapon R badges. (thank goodness, can you imagine how much the dealer would gouge you for those?) Just go to any quality auto parts store (Walmart, Dollar Tree, etc.) and pick yourself up a few Weapon R badges to go with your Raptor emblems and you're set. Slap those on the truck and nobody will know the difference between your truck and a real 2004 Weapon R Raptor. And just think, you'll have saved yourself probably $56-$74k. (pulling numbers out of my butt, but let's go with it)

Seriously, this guy is yanking our chains. Right Red?...That's what you're doing...right...??

Never said we were friends... and to further enhance that thanks for this one... what I meant when they were the same in essence is that they are both F-150s.

Let me dumb this down for you RedRobin

the 4x4 has a higher power engine than the XL so it can move the truck more efficiently

the GADGETS that will be used ONCE in a lifetime is pretty stupid, say you get a nav system in your truck and you only go from work - home - work - home, then its stupid to get...what if you DO Make that trip somewhere and you need to know where your going

Buy what you need...ESSENTIALLY all of mankind only needs their FEET to get around, but we are NOW buying what we "WANT" if we want a awesome truck with 4 wheel drive then so be it

if YOU want a XL to be a PLATINUM...all you have to do is use your (spongebob) IMAGINATION (rainbows) and there you go, you have yourself a brand new platinum

end rant

BTW, no one NEEDS a new truck, they just want one...i dont NEED a new 2010 4x4, but hell im gonna be getting one around March...i WANT a 2010 Oxford White 4x4 King Ranch Edition truck but im not gonna get it..

officially end rant
