Those of you who pick up your new Raptor: Be sure to fill your gas tank and stay close to camp. This thing sucks gas like crazy and goes through a tank before you know it. The pick-up tubes inside the gas tank are very high in the tank, so it appears to have maybe a third of a tank when it shuts down and you have to switch to reserve.
