I haven't looked yet. Is a Coyote V8 an option, or is it standard?

Now take that 5.0 mustang, or anyone else for that matter, to the dunes and race them there...where the truck was made to run. No question who smokes who.

It is a shiney, low cost, powerful, f150, at best. One of the best things about a Raptor is the suspension, which seems you have none of...If you are selling it someone will buy it, for a lot less than a Raptor. If they have a brain and an internet connection. Oh and saw that thing off of the...

I found a 2014 Raptor with the 6.2 V8 and love it! I bought it this Jan, it had 24k miles on it and still smelled new. It came with a 99k Ford warranty on it. It has a 6 speed not a 10 speed. The engine is awesome. It is low optioned which is what I wanted. I wanted the engine, trans...

I have a 2014 with 30k on it. I put a Ford warranty on it through 90k miles. I like doing all of the small stuff myself but if something big goes I am covered. I plan on driving mine til she drops, and if she does before 90k its covered. Even ball joints and tie rod ends are covered. Those I...

Glad to hear it and good info on the air down. I'm planning a camping/fishing trip late October/November to surf fish Hatteras and Okrakoke. Excited to get my truck in some sand.

I feel like my steelership, Richmond Ford is trying to avoid any warranty repair at all costs as well. Said the knock in my front end was shocks. I had those rebuilt on my dime, only 29k on my 2014. Knock is still there. We will see what that say next.

I was just going to ask the same thing xrocket21. It changes the resting height and with 14" of travel how would that "stiffen" the ride? Yes it may shorten max travel by 2.5 inches, because you are starting 2.5" higher but the ride should be the stock ride. Unless you are binding CV's, or...

I know its a drive but if you want to get your Raptor on some sand check out Corova, NC. It is a 4x4 only beach access town of beach homes. You can book a home for a week or two or whatever, which may make the drive a little more worth it. My summer vacation is set this year but I am going there...

Great looking truck, welcome. If I was every going to trade my white in, it would be for Ruby Red!

Great choice in wheels. Looking forward to a pic when you have the new set up on!

Great looking '14, check mine out in my profile :) I got mine with 29k and it needs shocks. I have been waiting on my Forged rebuilt shocks for 3 weeks now. Hope to get them this week and put them on. My truck needs them! It would be great to stay in touch and mod these twins up together.

Great thread update. Thanks all! I am a month waiting on my exchange program rebuilds to show up. This confirms for me that is probably the best way to go with my Gen 1, a 2014 with 29k miles on it. Love it. I did the rebuild with the flutter valves, schraders, and viton seals. Hope to get them...

New 1st time Ford Raptor owner as of Jan 2019.

Hello all, I just bought a 2014 Raptor base model with 29k mile on it. Original owner was 70 year old guy who garaged it. Bought it from the Ford dealer who sold it to him. So the story goes :) I am super excited to own this truck! I am learning more and more about it everyday. This forum and...
