Externally, the 2010 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is indistinguishable from the 2010 model. But under its skin lives a brand-new, 6.2-liter, 411-hp V-8. We didn't desert race it, but we did cover it in two inches of mud.

The 2010 F-150 SVT Raptor has some massive 4x4 truck tires. How much does a 35-inches-when-mounted-and-upright LT315/70R17 BFGoodrich All-Terrain KO tire and SVT rim actually weigh? Check the picture above to see what Edmunds found. Remember, lift with the knees.

Last week, PickupTrucks.com reported Ford's received numerous requests for a crew cab version of their upcoming off-road-ready, desert-running SVT F-150 Raptor.

Ford hasn't allowed to actually drive the 2010 F-150 SVT Raptor, though our main man, Wert, was driven around in the Vegas desert. That all changed this week at the 2009 Detroit Auto Show. Sorta.
