Release date for the 2017 Ford Raptor near Fond du Lac, IL
Fans of the Ford Raptor high-performance pickup truck should get out their calendars. Ahead of the release date for the 2017 Ford Raptor near Fond du Lac, WI, the truck has already toured much of the North American continent getting people excited. As everyone gets ready to welcome the new year, the countdown for the new 2017 Ford Raptor can begin in earnest. Current estimates have the new Raptor arriving to dealers like Holiday Ford toward the end of 2016; probably mid to late fall. Potential buyers have a lot to look forward to once the new truck arrives. Available information reveals the changes and upgrades that have been made to this incredible pickup truck.
While the performance scores have yet to be finalized before the release date for the 2017 Ford Raptor near Fond du Lac, WI. However, it has been revealed that the new Ford Raptor will have an all-new high-output engine under the hood. Once the 2017 Raptor gets to the Holiday Ford showroom, it will be powered by a 3.7-liter, EcoBoost engine. Ford says that the final power output figures will eclipse the 411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque produced by the currently available 6.2-liter, V-8 engine. Even more impressive is that Ford engineers that the new powertrain will offer increased fuel-efficiency as well.
Simply sticking a more powerful engine under the hood and letting go is not enough to be worthy of the reputation the Raptor name has built. The exterior materials used to build the 2017 Raptor will reflect the advances made by the rest of the F-150 fleet with its high-strength, military-grade aluminum alloy body. As it applies to the 2017 Raptor, it means that the high-performance truck will be more than 500 pounds lighter.
