Recently, the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor was named “Pickup Truck of the Year” by the experts at Popular Mechanics in this year’s Popular Mechanics Automotive Excellence awards.
With all other high performance off-road pickups taken into consideration over the course of the year, the F-150 Raptor was referred to as the “vehicle that transcends the competition,” according to Popular Mechanics experts.
“We have only nine categories covering the entire car market, so by design, winning isn’t easy. The Raptor is to a standard F-150 what Bruce Banner is to the Incredible Hulk. You can do 60 mph across terrain that would have most trucks smashing their oil pans at 30,” states Ezra Dyer of Popular Mechanics.
With features like a 450 horsepower 3.5-liter EcoBoost engine providing the perfect balance of performance and fuel efficiency, Ford’s exclusive 10-speed automatic transmission, a new light-weight high-strength aluminum-alloy body frame, and a six-mode Terrain Management System, it is easy to see why the new F-150 Raptor is a favorite among drivers and experts alike.
