the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor, it weighs about 225 kg less than the current car. Underpinning the new Ford F-150 Raptor is a purpose-built frame which features more high-strength steel than the current Raptor. Additionally, the 2017 F-150 Raptor makes use of military-grade aluminium alloy. Like the outgoing car, the latest-generation Ford F-150 Raptor is six inches wider than the standard F-150 for improved stability off-road. <\/p>\n<p>Mated to the engine of the new Raptor is a 10-speed automatic transmission with power being sent through all four wheels complete with a torque-on-demand transfer case.<\/p>\n<p>A number of different driving modes are available for the 2015 Ford F-150 Raptor. These are Normal mode, Street mode, Weather mode, Mud and Sand mode, Baja mode and Rock mode. The different modes alter things like the powertrain, driveline, traction control, ABS and AdvanceTrac stability control system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the Detroit Motor Show 2015 earlier this month, the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor was revealed.
