Baha 1000 time. The truck looks great!

[@gregoryfranks7347]

what a killer idea you guys have. its freakin' wicked!!

[@chriswheeler6092]

This truck caught me off guard and surprised me. The first time that I saw one of them I thought that it was a Raptor. After seeing how they are built I have seriously thinking about trying to build one.

My 2012 F150 looking at me with disgust as I lust after the XTF.

[@rtz549]

Could take that concept with the frame and use GM and RAM cabs too for additional engine options.

[@factoryfive]

That's definitely being discussed and if the XTF platform takes off, a version for a GM or Dodge or other make truck could be an upcoming project.

[@RubberChickenMan007]

Would you guys ever develop this to be compatible with the gen 1 raptor cab???

[@factoryfive]

We are not looking at adding the Gen 1 Raptor to the list of XTF donor cars as those trucks are getting older, and we are looking at later generation trucks as Extreme Truck platforms. We are also looking at the market size of the trucks and the number of potential donor trucks.

[@RubberChickenMan007]

@@factoryfive that makes sense. I was just hoping to keep the 6.2l drivetrain since I'll be getting as engine from Livernois Motorsports.

[@actontreadway1168]

you guys should update the front and rear clips to match the current, now facelifted, f150 design.

I would love to know how this kit is compared to the latest model F150 Raptor R. I feel like I may comparing apple to oranges here but would love if someone can tell me how both compared price and feature wise? Its not a question for me but for a client who want to use pro-runners for his business needs. Also after the conversion can the truck hold weight on the bed if you add custom equipment as the normal one? I know this is not the purpose of this conversion but hope that someone from FFR can answer these question it will be very helpful for our requirements.

[@shadfallfan]

On their website I believe they compare it to the R and this comes out on top. Obviously you will have to supercharge or turbo to get the same power. Will be about half the price too.

Sooo, the F9 project is shelved?

[@factoryfive]

The F9 project was put on hold as we shifted to working on developing the XTF as well as discussing how we wanted to proceed with revising the shape of the F9 body like the nose.
