I will wait and see if the Cybertruck fails off road like the GMC EV Hummer due to excessive weight even though the Cybertruck is lighter than the Rivian (not that good off road either). Hell, EVs and off roading in general is not a good mix. So no real interest but I do appreciate Tesla for...

Not much available in CA but I did manage to get: DRTMODE in Black and Gold (vintage plates). I was originally trying to some kind of FULLSND or pork chop express (PKCHEXP) plates but no go!

I believe the main issue is that many competitors have front and rear lockers (even the new Colorado and Canyon). For the price point I do not see why the Raptor's do not have front lockers!

Good deal... you spoke to the dealership manager or went to another dealership for the 37"? I hate stories/threads with no conclusion! lol

At least you got a build date OP. Early this year the dealership I ordered through literally calls me out of the blue to say my truck will be arrive in a few days. The entire process was skipped over but the truck was in perfect condition. Zero rust.... looked like straight from the factory floor.

Set from ebay (Auto-Nations Universal Mudflaps) and they are flat and perfect to fill the gap but require a little work to get the holes right (use piece of paper to make a stencil of the lower wheel arch for the holes) . I live in Cali so it is safe to assume larger mud flaps may be needed in...

Dang... Raptor Assault came out in 2017 so you should have had 3 chances to go! So perhaps you still can with your '23 if you haven't registered with the RA site yet!? The cost of the school is included in the cost of the truck and just need to pay to get there. I had people as far as Canada...

I do not believe the need for huge mudflaps is necessary at all. The primary area to cover is the gap between the side step and the fender. I added a small generic flap to cover that space and it took care of 85+ % of the mud/rocks compared to without and isn't an eye sore.

Got back from Raptor Assault recently and no one could explain why Ford removed the Torsen or if the current set up is better. Granted RA is not part of Ford but is a partner to provide a racing school for customers that purchase specific Ford vehicles. I also havent been doing any extreme off...

Great example of getting the right truck for your needs. Unfortunately diesel prices in many areas is costly and negates the MPG savings but great if that is not the case! Also GMC has done a great job with their trucks and seeing more Sierras driving around.

WhistlinDiesel knows how to deal with squatted trucks? :D

I'm curious if the new modular style front bumper fits the 2023? Also Ford finally introduced the HUD!

I figured I was not alone and the one view I want is the side view front and rear like the new GMs. A must for trails! Current Ford side view (top angle only *pic in garage): New Colorado side view (top and wheel level - front and rear with smaller dark area on the front and back only):

What do you think of the visibility from the cabin? I feel the Bronco has very limited visibility compared to the Wrangler and just another reason I went with a F150 Raptor instead.

Nothing says "living the life" more than using the heated steering wheel while running the AC! Pinkies definitely out while driving! :D And yes... very odd decision from Ford to remove common features from the F150... most likely for a year or two since F150s are a high volume vehicle.
