    Avoiding theft

    If you're interested in something other than Ravelco, Sound Evolution (on Westheimer west of BW8) carries IGLA. It's more pricey, but I went with it on my 2023 R because it's almost undefeatable (at least from what I've gathered from talking/reading from knowledgeable sources), and there are no...

    Official Raptor R Modification Thread

    Thanks for the detailed response and pictures. Everything looks great - nice work on those mods. I'll dm you if I decide to pull the trigger. And I guess it goes without saying that it's a shame these trucks didn't come from the factory this way.

    Official Raptor R Modification Thread

    Nice work. I'm interested in hearing more about the door handle swap, interior lights (cup holder, etc), and the security pack. Any details you can share on what you did is appreciated.

    Closed

    I just had full Xpel ppf and tint installed by Dynamic Autoworks in Spring. They do excellent work and had me bring the truck back in after a month to check everything. There were a couple of places they weren’t happy with and ended up replacing several of the ppf pieces at no cost to me. I’d...

    Sounds Good Stereo concern

    I'll second the praise for the SGS team. I handed them my R for a month to have the elevated system installed. I went up to visit them at their place and Sage spent about 2 hours with me explaining some of the intricate details of the build and listening to my music in the truck and adjusting...

    Feedback on your R's -- what problems have you experienced thus far?

    I had this happen and it turned out to be a dead bug right on the sensor. Cleaned it up and no more problem.

    Raptor R purchase would you do it again?

    Antimatter with no stickers. Such a clean look.

    how do you launch this truck?

    The R starts cutting power as you approach 108 mph to avoid exceeding the speed rating of the tires, allowing the TRX to make up ground. Otherwise, the R would continue to pull away.

    Forscan changes - tweak your truck

    I'm doing the glare free update and in the Livinitup spreadsheet, it says to change the APIM values, then perform an APIM reset in Forscan. Can someone please help me understand how to do this reset? Edit: Figured this out

    Best Raptor R (5.2 V8) Oil and Oil Filter

    See if you can find this on the stock Motorcraft 5W50, then compare it to Motorcraft 5W30 full synthetic, among others. In fact, I'd genuinely like to see 5W50 from any brand that has the API emblem.

    Best Raptor R (5.2 V8) Oil and Oil Filter

    There are a lot of discussions about Amsoil Signature not having the API certification. Amsoil helped create the API standards for motor oils back in the 70's, and they still have some API certified oils that they market. However for the Signature line, their explanation is API limits the...
