hope you at least own a raptor by the way. Congratulations on your M3.

What benefits are you saying?

just keeping it real

to ad... father in law was all about foreign imports. Great cars and fun... but not a Ford Raptor. My financial situation is good. Too many Starbucks raptors and then trophy trucks. Iam in the middle. Practicality and performance.

It is an F-ing V6.... spend the money on not breaking stuff off road. Tie rods and UCAs. Harmonics on a truck are secondarily. Just my opinion... but damn. Yes iam a Chardonnay or 2 into it. Still... iam going outside and gonna rev limit my V8 turn down pipe just to forget jumping on this thread.

mostly agree. Depends on the driver. Trophy truck no... but seriously capable fun toy in the right hands. I did enjoy watching that one guy go full on in an 80’ jump and destroy his truck and kidneys.

Nickel, aluminum, bronze, and manganese is used in marine applications. Cost!!! Ask yourself as a tax payer.

I agree on builds. But price has to play in. Unless I am the only guy on the forum that considers price as a consideration? Iam not a metal expert... but what is the benefit of ti? Weight... yes. Rust... yes. Cost is crazy. In my opinion.

then make it and sell it. Power to you brother. I am one of the guys that has spent more than he will ever need on “up grades”. Just crazy to me with cost on a ti exhaust. Worst money spent is on a titanium knife. Dulls out ever other cut. Iam not the Fortune 500 flat brimmed bro that would...

Trailered toy truck to romp on in dunes and at Baja with money to ****... sure... why not. Everyday driver who uses the truck everyday in every situation from ranching to camping and then the grocery store... my opinion is no. Look up the cost of ti per oz. It has its purpose... underwater (no...

ok... now add lights, bumpers, leaf springs, UCAs, misc bs, if your like me... topper, bump stop and etc... weight. I own a gen1. Iam sure I am about to get hammered for this but.... weight reduction is important as well. Gen2 trucks cut weight with aluminum and a v6. Downside... bent beds, a...

With the amount of weight I and others have added to truck w/ bumpers, springs, and a thousand other mods... I see where weight loss is important. But is it a trailer to the desert truck? Or a daily driver and adventure seeking weekend truck? Titanium is super pricey. Actually saw a 3’ diameter...

I had the same on my old trailer. It was the trailer end that over time had worn a little at the plug. During hard turns or bumps along the road.... it would wiggle loose.

kind of regret not popping in SVC which is literally a mile away from RPG. Called them first but the dates didn’t match for me. In my opinion... RPG is a good small unique Raptor specific engineer owned company that has more work and business than workers and time. I fell in and was happy. SVC...

Damn really? I know you have been here awhile as I have. I just started this month truly getting after the suspension with them after years of owning the truck and was happy with there shop. Only gripe was the instructions for self install are outdated and very vague for current products. I...
