    Performance SUV -> Raptor

    I've owned a number of sports cars including the E92 M3 (we also had an X5 with the V8 and a 530i sport). If you are looking for something to drag race stop light to stop light, the Raptor is a poor choice. If this is more about daily live-ability, the Raptor wins hands down. I agree with one...

    Has anyone modified the rear fog cover to fit the Baja Designs Kit? If so, could you share a pic?

    New Baja Designs triple fog kit installed

    I just installed my SPV Triple Fog Kit. It was dark before I could zip tie everything, so I need to finish it in the morning. I decided on the amber fogs, sport driving combo and spot lights. I’ll see if I can pull together a pic or two tomorrow night. Install was really easy if you carefully...

    Phantom power draw? Dash Cam? Truck has low battery after 2-3 days sitting...

    Dumb question, but are you sure the battery terminals are tight? Wife had this issue with a Platinum after it was delivered from the dealer with loose battery terminals. Not kidding

    Floor Mats

    Love the WeatherTechs. I have the OEM mats in my storage unit and will put them back in when I sell the truck

    Windshield wiper (recall)

    My recall notice popped up in FordPass on Friday while I was (ironically) picking up an F150 Platinum that had been stuck on dealer hold due to the same issue. I’ve not experienced any problems with my wipers so far (about 3,000 miles).

    Dealer Sold My Raptor 37 to Another Buyer!

    Covert sucks. We have bought vehicles from their Ford, Jeep and Cadillac dealers over the years, but they showed their true colors during the pandemic. We will never buy another vehicle from them again. We was able to purchase my Raptor through a customer retail order with Mac Haik. I was...

    Bad Battery

    I have a '22 Raptor that has had the battery discharge on me on both 12/22 and last night -- for no reason that I can explain (other than maybe it sat in a parking lot in Dearborn for 10 weeks waiting on microchips). I've been driving it -- at least daily and usually 30-50 miles each day. Mine...

    Short Antenna Recommendations

    Really like the BuiltRight antenna. Also, like to help a small, American owned business, so it is a win win.

    Real world MPG

    I'm only at about 2,000 miles on my 35 so I the jury is still out, but I was getting upper 13s city with the Ford fake beadlocks. I just put on Venomrex wheels (significantly lighter) and through about 1/2 tank I'm just over 15 city. My one hunting trip last month I was able to get just under...

    New Direct Bolt on S1 Wide Cornering Rear Light Kits for Gen 3 Raptor... (We Heard You!!)

    Just completed this install on my 2022. Super easy. I would recommend buying a torX 30 socket if you don’t own one. I couldn’t get the factory bolt loose with the torx 30 screwdriver I own. I would also recommend the all in one crimping tool: IWISS Weather Pack Crimp Tool for AWG 24-14...
