I don't have the money to do this, but could you make a Expedition into a Raptor? The idea was brought up by my GF when I was talking about the Raptor. I think the front suspension could be transferred, but the rear would have to come from the aftermarket. Would the fenders fit? Spring rates would have to be stiffer right?
So could it be done?

The Raptor is about 5 or 6 inches wider than the stock F150. So if you really wanted to do it without having overly flared fenders, there would be a lot of body work to do.


Fun fact: the Raptor was originally going to be even wider, but they found that it wouldn't fit on the regular F150 assembly line.

I like the fun fact...that I didn't know but makes sense.....those Raptors are so bad ass

Also I believe Hennessey War wagon is what you want:
