[QUOTE="MONSTERCANINEFLA, post: 1620491, member: 48786"] [ATTACH=full]165415[/ATTACH] I'm a proud owner of this Ruby Red 2014 Ford Raptor. I ordered this truck New back in 2014. I have had no issues with this Raptor which currently has 135,000 miles on it. All maintenance has been preformed like clockwork. This truck has been great and I plan on keeping it forever. Now the Question: Last week I got in the truck and fired it up. When I put it in reverse to back out of the driveway, it began making a grinding noise. Put it in Neutral - No noise.
