    Philly/Mainline shops?

    Just an update in case someone stumbles here looking for a Philly area shop. I bought my AWE 2FG from @Nick@Apollo-Optics, whose personal communication and service and price is top notch, and looked for a shop for installation. What better place than @Josh/AWE AWE Tuning itself? They are just...

    Philly/Mainline shops?

    Anyone have good experience with an independent shop for minor things like oil changes in the Philly/Mainline area? Been going to the dealer, but it’s far from me. Thanks in advance. For wheels/tires, I had good experience with Wheel and Tire Distributors, a small independent focused on trucks...

    Drain channel in sunroof rails?

    Hi, I read other posts about the leaking sunroof issue, and saw people refer to drains? I have water dripping into the car and into the rails. Do these rails channel water out of the car? Or is this water pooling somewhere inside the truck that I can’t see? See pics. The dripping water is at...

    Seatbelt chime and back up warning

    Thanks all. The start up chime seemed louder, but I think it’s back to normal. That might have been my imagination The back up alert chime went back to normal, too. I haven’t done any forscan changes, and balance and fader was fine.

    Seatbelt chime and back up warning

    The strangest thing tonight... or maybe I’m crazy. The seatbelt chime and back up warning beeps are suddenly different. When I start the truck with the doors closed, I get the “doo doo doo” chime a few times. Did it always do this?? I swear it only did it if I drove away for awhile without...

    Rough idle with auto start/stop disabled and A/C on

    I have a rough idle. It’s more of a feel than seeing the rpm needle move. And it’s when the AC is on or off, and doesn’t matter if stop-start is on or disabled. So I think it’s different than a change in idle due to the AC compressor. I really hope this isn’t a precursor to the cam phaser problem...

    How do you guys like the ride of a 2019 raptor

    Isn't there a closer dealer that has one that you can test drive? With overinflated tires, it was like hearing and feeling the tires rubbing on the road. With 38 psi cold, there is no feeling or hearing the rubber on the road. My previous daily driver was an Audi A8, btw.

    How do you guys like the ride of a 2019 raptor

    Mine was way overinflated, and drove like crap on the test drive. Once I got it to 38 psi, the ride improved significantly. I have heard many others say they are overinflated from the factory.

    Recaro seats

    I have the standard seats (not Recaro) and have the same issue with the driver seat. I tried to reattach it, and was able to get one clip on, but then it comes off again while working on the next clip. Gonna wait for my first oil change to get it fixed at the dealer. The seats are cheap. They...

    GEN 2 Custom decal pictures

    Are the '19 hoods different from the '17-'18? On their website, they have the oem style hood graphics for 17-18, but not for the 19. Thanks!

    Do the '19's have the same issues as '17 and '18?

    I got a really good deal at 1k under invoice because the small rural dealership in PA was acquired by another larger dealer group that is liquidating inventory and then rebuilding a new location from the ground up. I was surprised that the one Raptor they had was part of the same promotion as...

    2019 Velocity Blue in the Philly Area

    Hi all, As previously updated in my post in the Prospective Owners forum, I ended up buying a 2019 Screw with 902A and moonroof in Velocity Blue. I got a great deal and jumped on it. I've noticed that Velocity Blue looks so different in different light. The last pic below shows sunlight on the...

    Hey guys , philly here

    Here’s my Velocity Blue. It really does look different in every picture. And then it even looks different depending on the natural light, e.g., sunlight or dusk or night.
