Mine hasn’t replicated the issue. My Dealer said especially if it’s still under Extended Warranty to bring it in and have them check it out so issue and you checking on it is documented.

It was 2018 but I paid $1k over Dealer Invoice on one I spec’d and the Dealer ordered for me.

Mounted mine under the Driver’s side rear seat. Drilled holes through the frame under the seat where I attached the Fire Extinguisher. It’s weight is on the floorboard. Protected when the seat is down but easily accessible. Been there since 2018 with no problems. Will take and post a picture...

I believe 1 and 2 are recalls. Had both myself and Ford fixed them under Warranty.

Finally, talk to the Dealer and get the VIN as soon as possible and before the truck is delivered. Use it to register for the free Ford Raptor Driving School in Utah. School is well worth the time an effort especially for someone that isn’t an experienced off-roader. School fills up...

If your existing vehicle has front and back cameras, start using them, especially the front ones. Habit.

Get in the habit of pulling the mirrors in every time you go through a drive through or park it. Truck is 6 inches wider than a regular F-150 which doesn’t seem like much until you drive it. Outside mirrors do stick out.

Suggestion if you don’t wash it yourself—find someone that hand washes. Don’t risk a car wash.

Measure your garage. Odds are Raptor won’t fit.

I have a 2018 Raptor with 34,000 miles. Recently I received multiple Low Oil Pressure Warnings from Ford Pass. The vehicle itself indicated no problem and I checked the Oil level which was fine. To be safe I took the vehicle to the Dealership and had it checked out. They found no...

As soon as you get the VIN Register for Raptor Assault.

Pretty sure you can still get them under MSRP from two different dealers near me.

Special Ordered mine to my Specs from Kirk Ford in Genada, MS for $1k above Dealer Invoice. GM has moved to Canon Ford in Starkville, MS and I believe he will give you the same price. GM is Chris Keene. Feel free to tell him I referred you.

I had a similar issue at about 8k miles. Ford tried everything to make the Codes go away. Said the Cats wouldn’t fail that early. However, they finally gave up and replaced the Cats under Warranty. Problem went away. Vehicle now has 18k miles with no more issues. Never figured out why...

I have a 6/125 and also have the Maintenance Plan for the same period. The Maintenance Plan probably doesn't pencil out if you just consider the cost of taking it in for regular maintenance, but if anything is wrong I don't have a problem with either the Dealer or Ford. It's theirs.
