    With the price of TRx, why are folks paying ADM for raptors?

    Yeah I can't even find new trx on the interwebs but I'm sure you can go in and find out dealer allotments and adm. Here I have yet to see a new trx for under 115k

    I wish it disclosed equipped options. Here the trx is stupid expensive. Here are some screenies of some here in Colorado. Keep in mind these are USED!!!

    With the price of TRx, why are folks paying ADM for raptors?

    Don't know why you think the trx is selling under msrp and it really depends on what options are on it. My coworker managed to get one but is paying over 100k for hers. I think msrp is $69k-$94k

    True 37 spare options on 35 truck?

    The 2 biggest differences between the 35 and 37 packages are the rear axel sway bar that has a bend to make clearance. Also the tow bar/hitch reciever is also bent to make clearance. Keep it dirty offroad has an excellent video showing the differences between both. Granted the truck he was...

    Dealer giving out my R?

    Blame lobbyist and dealership schemes. Ever wondered why we can't purchase directly from the manufacturer? It's because of them. Now unless you signed a document that specifically states your name with a specific vin on a specific price with promise of garentee then I'm afraid the dealer can do...

    Wouldn't it be awesome? 5.8L Raptor R

    Ahhh the 4.6 v8 was terrible... had to have a special tool just for this motor when changing out spark plugs. They were prone to breaking in half while trying to remove them and would usually require an extraction tool which I permanently bought. Ended up selling the vehicle a few years later...

    37 vs 35 Gen 3.

    Heres my opinion: depends on how bad you want the extra 2 inches. Theres a lot more that goes with the 37 inch package than just larger tires. Ford supplies all raptors with the 37 inch package with slightly larger shocks and a different tow crossbar to properly fit the larger tire under the...

    Aftermarket mods, will I recoup dollars spent?

    My response wont be about which mods to pick or get but rather your question on recouping the money spent on mods. Modding a vehicle will add value depending on the type and extent of mods. However, the first moment you mod a vehicle, the instant you should never sell to a broker or dealership...

    Just for fun: What kind of MPG are you getting?

    Unloaded highway driving I could avg around 17.5 and maybe higher if going downhill (I live in the mountains). Moderately loaded I'm getting closer to 15.5-16 mpg (tire rack, both spares, power tank and jack. No tools except for stock lug bar). I'm expecting to get more like 12 with a light...

    Questions- Help me build my raptor

    The only reason youd want fully loaded or a higher tier package is if you ever plan on selling the truck. Of course you will be paying for the higher tier. Just something to keep in mind. At the very least, get a front torsen diff.

    That's it...I'm out

    I've owned an 03 explorer, 05 mustang gt, 14 f150 supercab xlt 4x4, 16 mustang ecoboost, 17 mustang gt premium, 18 f150 raptor 802a, and a 2020 explorer platinum. I will always admit I'm a ford fanboy (even a stock holder) and I'll probably only own fords for the rest of my life. We are in...

    Tire PSI

    Higher will get you better milage but bumps in the road will feel more pronounced. I run mine at 40 on street but air down to around 26 off road. Power tank ftw

    8-Hrs Later!-Raptor VS Cat’s Claw, Bushes & Cedar Trees!!

    These trucks are not mountain trail friendly!!! My buddy and I went up old stage here in colorado. Everything is great until you get on those narrow trails which nature in turn gives you custom pinstripping. I ended up getting stuck in a rock garden and cause significant damage to my exhaust. Be...

    Ford Bronco Raptor vs. RAPTOR

    I'm hoping it's more rock crawling oriented than baja running. I got my raptor for my baja needs but I'm hoping the new bronco will be badass in rockcrawling in areas like moab. A true jeep competitor
