I attended May 3rd and its my second time attending (did the regular Raptor and now the R). You do have a co-driver, but you get plenty of seat time. They have added stuff to the R program since this thread was first started. The biggest difference is the R drivers have a personalized instructor...

I will be out there for the R class on May 3rd. This will be my second time as I went last June with my last Raptor. Knowing that I would get to go again for the R made the upgrade decision that much easier.

I really can’t believe this was available.

I did. Dude that did the install said xpell even had premade templates for it so I can't be the first person who did it. Beauty shots from my install are on the picture thread. I also put clear gloss xpell on the interior piano black trim.

They took some beauty shots when I picked it up from PPF.

All you R guys at Assault sold me on the upgrade. Traded in for the R yesterday. Looks like I will be heading to Utah again this year.

I bought mine yesterday with markup of only 10k. A couple of dealers in the Midwest are asking about the same. PM if you still have not found one.

Traded in the 22 on 35's for a 23 R yesterday. Only drove it about 70 miles yesterday before I dropped it off for PPF.

Your new Ranger is one of our top priorities. The recent UAW strike impacted production at the Ford Michigan Assembly Plant where the Ranger® truck lineup is assembled. As the plant resumes production, our focus is on assembling with the highest quality. We expect to begin shipping the new...

I just sent you a PM, but I got my order in at a dealer in Chicago. BTW, When I was calling around I really had to specify that I wanted a Ranger Raptor. I really fell that at this point every member of this forum knows more about the product line than the average salesperson at this point.

I was also there in the non-R. I will say once the rain came I really didn't care about how fast I was going on the Baja Track and just tried to slide as much as I could. That Utah mud is sticky.

Sport did seem stiffer to me so I have been liking how Baja rides. Normal mode is just far to loose and it feels like you are rolling around on a boat when driving on surface streets. Sport mode and then use the steering wheel button for suspension. You could also do this with all 3 steering...

I live in Chicago so the pot holes are pretty horrible here. I set my R button up for Quiet Exhaust, Sport Steering and Baja suspension. It might all be placebo effect, but I find the ride much better on the city surface streets and then I switch back to normal mode once I am on the highway...
