Ford Raptor Outcome



Ford Raptor in Satin Black...

Ford came through which is probably a good thing since they not only saved us from buying from a competitor, but the final result seems to be generating some excitement in various truck enthusiast communities. Yes, is such a thing, there are people who are super passionate about this stuff, people just love their trucks!

I normally wouldn't blog about this, but I wanted to follow up on the previous blog about our experience with Ford. Not only did they save a customer, but they retained a fan in me --- and they are generating a bunch of free viral marketing from various forums in the process.

We spent a week or so planning on the final design of the truck, and here is the finished product. The following people deserve props for helping us get to the final outcome;

  • Jim Walen of Ford of Kirkland
  • Craig Daitch & Scott Monty of Ford Corporation
  • Micah Adams from Addictive Desert Designs
  • Bill Mann from Manns Hitch & Trailer
  • Blake Siebe from Northwest Auto Salon (check their blog here on the wrap)
I'm also working on plans for an Xbox entertainment system, but I'm not there yet, I need to find some good displays that don't get in the way.

...and here it is!
