Yeah its not the sinking I am worried about but more so if one engine fails the 9.9 can get me home. Also could use it for trolling and putting around from spot to spot.

Raptors don't ever get good gas mileage do they? Awesome truck though, like you said pay to play lol.
Politicians are like diapers, they both need to be changed often, and for the same reason - Unknown

Oh god no, I average 12. The bad gas mileage is cancelled out with the sheer fun of offroading in this thing. Ive hit tripple digits in fields and it just floats over the terrain. Plus they are the best looking truck IMO

Yeah, Im going to cabelas this weekend to get a tune up on the main and get my 9.9 kicker installed. Before you take it to cabelas, you might check with Michael Bristow 940-230-3682, He is a fellow TFFer and does great work.

Hooking a fish is like playing string with a cat. The exact size, shape, color of string matters less than how you wiggle it- and little cats are easier to fool than big ones. John Gierach

Plus they are the best looking truck IMO Somewhere on Youtube there is an ol boy who jumped his new Raptor and man did he launch it. He destroyed it too. Just look it up, worth watching.
