The 2017 Ford F-150 has already made a lot of hype prior to its release. Given the fact that it did nothing but improve since it made its market debut in 2010, this is to be expected. According to report from Autoo Mobile, the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor may even make the 2017 Chevrolet Silverado cower when it comes out. With the Ford F-150 Raptor staring at its competition with piercing eyes, it wouldn't be a surprise if it will also claw its way up to the top in no time.

"It's a great problem to have, but it's tough, because there's so much interest in the product," said Olliges. "We do everything we can to get our hands on Raptor for our customers whether that's referring them to other Ford dealers or making calls to find the truck for them," he added.
