    Gen 1 fender flare paint peeling

    Starting to get some paint peeling on my passenger side front fender flare. Was thinking about going to aftermarket flares rather than repaint. Any recommendations? I saw some Bushwhacker ones that looked OK.

    Allocation Opportunity…?

    I'm sure it's fine, because car dealers are always completely honest. Just be wary if they try to sell you that True Coat.

    4-Sale…Beautiful Cabin and Gen-1 in Excellent Condition

    Can you post the VIN? I'd like to run a Carfax on it to make sure there's no hidden damage.

    Raptors Stolen from Dearborn

    In a related story, the lot at the TRX factory is unfenced, unguarded, without security, and the keys are left in the trucks. There have been no reports of thefts.

    I would have commented earlier, but I was wiping the drool off of my phone.

    Was Running Fine Yesterday…

    Is it just me, or does anyone else think it's ironic that none of the dash error messages said to check the battery?

    GEN 2 Sold my Raptor and couldn’t be happier

    You know I was on the fence between selling my Raptor and buying a TRX. I was afraid that buying a TRX would turn me into a raging ****. Vintabutt has helped me with my decision. I'll be keeping the Raptor.

    GEN 2 Sold my Raptor and couldn’t be happier

    Your 40 years of truck ownership experience literally mean nothing in this conversation. Says the guy who came to this board in 2018 asking for advice from people with experience. Huh?

    GEN 2 Sold my Raptor and couldn’t be happier

    Seriously?? Does anyone actually place any credibility on a guy that was "new to this whole truck game" (his words, not mine) in 2018? I've been driving trucks for the last 40 years. I've driven Dodges, Toyotas, Ford's, Chevys, Nissans. I wouldn't buy a Ram.

    Good Bye Raptor Hello Bronco?

    Even with ADM, the new Bronco will cost you way less than a new wife.

    Only thing I might add to the list would be a membership to Nutrisysyem. LOL!

    GEN 1 The Gen 1 Raptor Experience.

    When my son turned 18, I took him down to SoCal to do one of those exotic car experiences. He got to take a Lambo Huracan on the track, and I took out a Ferrari 458 Italia. The most impressive car of the day, however, was a Raptor parked in the employee parking lot. Despite having been...

    2022 Raptor blew up - 133 miles

    So sorry man. I'm a little worried that Ford has gone the same direction as Boeing, and the Gen3 is Ford's 737 Max. When the Raptor first came out, Ford was way ahead of the curve. It feels now that the competition has caught up. Not sure if it's a result of cost cutting or something else...
