    Is this engine totalled?

    A old trick my father in law showed me to find the location of a noise is to take a piece of wood (like a broomstick) and hold it to your ear. Put it on different parts of the engine. It will be obvious when you find where the noise is coming from. I also know mechanics that have a...

    2019 Raptor SCrew?

    Buying a leftover 19 is a good way to go. I bought mine 2 months ago for less than the used one you are looking at. I made them an offer and they excepted it. Which means I offered to much. I think I could have bought it for under 65,000. Shoot low and see what they say.

    What is it?

    I bought a 2019 SCREW 2 weeks ago. I have had 3 people ask me what the plastic thing is that is attached to the driver side exhaust. It is close to the end of the exhaust. The passenger side does not have one. Any idea what it is/does? Thanks.

    I got one.

    I am not a new member, but as of yesterday I an a first time Raptor owner. After driving F-350s for the last 20 years I feel like I'm driving a sports car. This thing is great. Took me a while to find one I liked without a sunroof.
