Things You DIscovered About Your Raptor

That’s the gear lockout feature. When you hit the paddle or gear selector +/-, the gear display goes away. tap either one again and it comes back. if you double tap -, you lock out 10th gear. tap - again, you lock out 9th gear, and so on. It doesn’t do this as quickly as manual mode shifting.

The gear display disappearing is a common complaint among new users.

I bought a new 2019 Raptor, Magnetic with the 802a package, Raptor Technology package and a couple of other typical options. I've had both knees replaced in the last six months, so working on it has been slow. I ordered a Bakflip MX4 toneau cover, AMP running boards, under seat storage box and tow bar baseplates as it will be towed behind my motor home.

So that's my story and here is why I posted. I've found in the past that there are many little items one person may discover about their vehicle that others never knew. As a example....Even though many know this, there is a button on the left rear bed light that allows you to turn on the bed lights from the tailgate.

So as a new owner, I'm looking for secrets about the Raptor that you won't find in the manual.

You can turn your radio on without turning the truck on or putting it into accessory mode, as long as the key is in the truck, just hit the power button on the radio.
