Neptune ◊ 2013-02-12 21:34	Technically no. While Raptors are based on the current F-150 (P415), they are all-new from the A-pillar forward (with the exception of the headlamps) and have unique suspension and body modifications which are not found on any F-150. The vehicle was developed under the code-name "Raptor", and engineers referred to the vehicle as "Raptor" for secrecy, so anyone (outside of Ford Motor Company) would be none the wiser. The vehicle at that time didn’t have a proper model name, but model names like "Terminator" and "Condor" were put forth as possible candidates. Later the design and sales teams decided to make the code-name (Raptor) part of the model name. -- Last edit: 2013-02-12 21:44:31
