I was able to get 67k on the original tires. I have a 2014SCAB run 36-38psi & rotate them every 5k. There was plenty of meat left on them but I replaced them this fall because the winters in Southern New England can be ugly & was thinking I’d be shopping for a new truck this year… so might as...
Where did you get the braided brake lines? I'm thinking about replacing the pads & rotors on the front end, shopping around for best quality:$$$ . Might also swap out the brake line & fluids
Anyone know what the delay is from build date to arrival @ the dealer? I have confirmed the vin & build date was 12/2. But dealer said eta is mid January... Seriously?
That's awesome! Today is my build date. Damn you Ford for making me wait! I'm thinking about calling the dealer ever hour and asking if it's ready yet.... I'm looking for places already to go get muddy straight from the dealer. :drool:
I ordered mine in Oct & was cursed with a 12/2 build date also. The big variable is if Ford builds them before they close the plant for the week between holidays....

Best deal I got was $1500 off the MSRP on...
I'm waiting on my Raptor to be built but have been shopping around for covers. I had a folding cover from Advantage, it sucked! It was on a '05 F250 never fit right & always let water in. Started asking around about the one Ford uses made by REV - supposedly, if Ford dealer installs it then...
Anyone know what the recommended "break -in" period for the engine/ transmission?
Reason I ask is b/c I'm getting a 2014 out of FL, but plan to drive it home to CT? I was talking w/ a guy who said you're not supposed to hit highway speeds for a prolonged ride until you log at least 250 miles...
Just put a deposit on a 2014 SCAB, ordered it as Silver no stickers with 801A, moonroof, hard folding tonneau cover, bed extender & bead lock rims.
Now the wait begins....
Winter Tires
Checkout the Cooper Discoverer - I've had really good luck w/ them.
Reasonable price. Great in New England weather been running on them for about 5 years.
Try letting the engine warm & transmission warm up to operational ranges before you take off. I've had similar issues w/ my F250. I'll bet this will help. Costs nothing but a few minutes @ start up.
I was thinking about the same problem. I see so many black Raptors & they look AWESOME! But how the hell do you prevent the swirl marks? A truck that's meant to get dirty ought to have a paint job that's just as tough/durable.
I spoke to Hoffman's in Hartford yesterday about ordering one. The salesman said, that the way Ford's building these, he expected arrival for January.
He did take the time to check his computer & ask a few other people but basically said, best bet is to place the order in the last week of...
