Sighted this vehicle in the parking lot at the local Braums.
"A Rolling Art Museum" my wife said.
(she is a clever woman, with good taste . . . see Braums, above)

I had to pause to take in the Art Work . . .
decorating a black Ford pickup, (with proportional rims and tires=)
White, nearly Escherlike Stick Graphics on the hood . . .
Proceeding toward the rear of the vehicle and gradually morphing
into a multihued, vaguely "Mexican" matrix
(lots of Day of The Dead skulls,, knives, cards, lucky charms, dice, etc.)
In Living TechniColor.

Whut the heck IS this thang? =)

["Wraptor" was on what looked like an Official Oklahoma license plate.]

Instant Nostalgia. (and I'm not a "car worshipper")
Reminded me a little of the first StingRayCorvette I saw from an Elementary School Playground . . .
The Benz Bobby drove on a couple of episodes of Dallas . . .
The Anniversary Edition of a Thunderbird (in Metallic BlueGrey) . . . (maybe 6 months ago)

Sounds like someone used car wrap to decorate a new Ford F150 Raptor.

Thanks for the response.
After a little online research, between the 12th and now, I sorta figured out that's what it was.

I guess I'm wondering who does this sort of thing?
And does maybe the truck belong to the Graphics Guy who achieves this level of excellence in advertising?

Oh GAWD the Smell!

I know a couple of guys who do wraps, and a couple of guys that have them on their cars. But neither does it for advertising purposes.

And as a GM truck guy, I'd rock a Raptor without thinking twice. Those are awesome trucks. Highly capable.

I've seen a few print shops and body shops that will wrap your car instead of paint it. I just found Monster Graphx in Edmond through a Google search and they have a gallery so you can see their designs as well as design your own. I have noticed a lot of company vehicles that are wrapped driving along I-35 lately.
