The independent rear suspension makes a big difference to ride comfort on rough roads.

Had a Gen 2 raptor before my Lightning. Would never go back to the Raptor.
Well that's at least three of us that traded in Raptors for the Lighting...there may be more lurking out there.

Sure you can make one *look* like a Raptor, but it'll never perform like one offroad. Washboard dirt roads are one thing, actual hard core offroad is a whole different animal. Take it from a guy with 9 Baja 1000 class wins.
I'd be interested in parsing this out further, all respect intended. Winning 9 class wins in Baja races is amazing.

Of course you're never going to make this a full Baja racer, as to the casual observer, those bear very little resemblance to any factory F150s.

But it would seem like many Raptor part thats could be bolted to a standard gas F150 4x4, could be bolted to a Lightning. With the possible exception of the rear suspension being that it's different than a standard gas F150.
