Ford need to tell VW to get stuffed if they think they can get access to the Raptor. I don't see a VW version as likely though. You'd have to think Ford won't allow it.
At least your not shy about double standards

Ford: Hey VW, show us what you got on EV's will ya mate

Ford: Hey VW, get the **** away from that Raptor ya mongrels
