Not confirmed, but I heard it also increased HP by 10% but Ford didnt want anyone to know.


I had the motor replaced this year and the mechanic told me the new was slightly different than the one he removed. So I think I got lucky and got the newer version.

It was... I never really got a straight answer on the exact failure from ford. Basically lost oil pressure so I took it to the dealer and they said they found metal in the oil. Then they took 4 months to replace the motor.

I've been looking for a Gen 2 Raptor for quite a while now. I've been searching for the right deal on a 2017 that has the deleted applique tailgate as I think it is the cleanest look and don't want the 18's and up stamped F-150 tailgate. If there are any owners that are looking to sell their 2017 with the applique delete I'd be interested in making something happen.

Are you saying the 2018+ Raptors without the appliqué come with F150 stamped tailgates? My truck is Magnetic, so the appliqué and fender flairs pretty much disappear unless you are really close to it.

the non appliqué tailgate is just the standard f-150 tailgate with a raptor badge. I believe in 18 ford started stamping f-150 into the tailgates of all non appliqué trucks. I don’t like that new trend where companies are stamping the name of the truck in huge letters. I know what I bought haha
