They're not. A 50% street / 50% baja truck that comes with a warranty and is done RIGHT from the factory is not over rated. It's smart. I'll take one in Oxford White, with every option except the gay graphics and the even gayer tailgate bar.

From a dealership though? Where you have to do no work, you can just go pick it up and enjoy it. Some people don't want to have to research what setups to run and then have it sit in a shop for months while they build it. They just want to go pick it up and have fun, theres nothing else out there you can do that in.

For the same amount of money that a Raptor costs someone could build a much better used Truck with aftermarket parts, however the novelty of buying a capable truck, with a warrenty, from the dealership is a lure for many people & Ford is the only company in that market.
To answer the original poster, a Ranger Raptor would be a cool vehicle. Ford isn't going to keep the Ranger though, let alone make special editions of it.
It would be cool if they brought back the F-100, with a 302, and a make a Raptor edition...

I see no problem in just building a ranger raptor your self, (DBR) but the allure for me is the electronics in the 150 raptor. having the different drive settings gives a lot of flexibility in how the raptor behaves, where as even a well built ranger may not be able to adapt to different driving style and terrain as easily.

as for a ranger... it wont happen. considering they have 2 different rangers...the north america version and the global version... too much money in other stuff for not enough pay out.

I do, as a consumer and enthusiast I like to have tools at my disposal, are all the tools needed to have a capable truck? No way in hell but like Dan said they are aides and are their when you need them or want them, its nice to have a button to push to tune down my abs and firm up my shift points, instead of having to plug in a tuner and do it all from scratch, and then turn it back on when I am done playing and I want to drive home. It adds usability to the truck.
