    I wouldn't say that people are looking to imitate a raptor. The raptor and other tacoma owners actually imitate a significant amount of features based on trophy trucks/ Baja trucks. Its a general style. We associate these items with the raptor as it was one of the first entries to exhibit many characteristics of race trucks.

    The only mildly attractive Ford truck ever is the Raptor. My opinion of course. The first truck I ever liked was the Tacoma, then I saw the Pro grill and liked it much more than my honey comb.

    1970's Fords actually look pretty good. Even better with EcoBoost 900hp TT v6. Haha

    While it's just an opinion, I'll say Oh hell no.
    The Raptor is bad ass, anyone that says otherwise is in denial or just doesn't like trucks. The Gaynger Raptor is another story. If anything it is copying the Tacoma TRD Pro

    I've run into Ken Block a few times in Park City up on the mountain biking trails. Super cool dude. Pretty sure I scoped the hoonicorn mustang going down the PC Main Street hill once too.

    In the right light on a neutral-colored Tacoma, it looks great to me. When I'm ready for wheels and whatnot, I'll change it most likely.

    What I am saying is that when the Ranger Raptor comes (and I think it definitely will), Toyota will up their Pro (and possibly Offroad) game. I agree the F150 Raptor is badass. As Toyota mostly does, they will not meet the Ranger Raptor performance level but will up the styling cues (and possibly suspension), etc. I predict he Ranger Raptor will be the halo truck for the mid range segment. I doubt Toyota will counter with an truly equivalent model - they have a long history of doing that!

    I wasn't going for the Raptor look, but I'll admit I was kind of going for the TRD Pro look. I didn't realize how little I liked the 2016 TRD OR grill until a Pro parked next to me.

    I sometimes feel dump spending money "upgrading" a $39,000 truck, but whatever, that's 'Murica
