    Great customer service from Rigid

    I recently contacted Rigid for a warranty claim on a D2 light that had chipping with the black paint. I had the light as part of the Rigid Raptor light kit that I got from Alternative Off-road about 18 months ago. Not only did Rigid send me back new lights but they also sent 4 of the newly...

    Polarity for Horn wires

    Hoping someone can help me with wiring some air horns that I've installed. I'm going to splice a relay into the OEM horn wires so that I can press the steering wheel horn button to activate OEM horn when upfitter switch is off and activate air horns when upfitter switch is on. I don't have...

    Polarity for Horn wires

    I'm going to splice into the wiring for the OEM horn to add a relay that will enable to use the factory horn button to blow an air horn I installed. There are two wires going into the horn harness which I assume is (+) and ground. I don't have access to a voltmeter right now so was hoping...

    Road Paint compliments of DOT

    Going home last night after work, I seemed to have picked up some fresh road paint. I don't remember passing any cones or signs to warn me of road crews painting new yellow lines. In any case, I woke up to find yellow paint on the driver's side of the truck. Luckily, I have mudflaps and that...

    2 New Raptors on lot in Maryland

    I passed by Apple Ford in Columbia, MD today and saw Terrain and Ruby Red Raptors on the lot. I pass by there often so they haven't been there long. The link below shows them priced at MSRP. It may be a good place to look if you're in the market. I bought my Raptor there last year and had a...

    Dealership blaming my LEDs for front camera issues

    My local dealership has had my truck off & on for over 7 days trying to diagnose and fix my front camera. The camera simply will not enable regardless of 4WD, ORM or locked differential status. They've replaced everything, including the transfer case, and it's still not working. So they just...

    Front camera broke so getting transfer case replaced

    Took my 2013 SCREW with 20K miles to the dealership to fix a problem with my front camera not working. When trying to enable it, I always get the message that the truck must be in 4-low or ORM+locked diff even though I did have those modes activated. After diagnosing the issue, the dealership...

    Got stuck and had to be rescued

    I'll admit I'm a novice at driving off-road (learning more everyday thanks to this forum) but having to call in another truck to rescue my Raptor is especially embarrassing. I went on a "fun run" with a buddy of mine today and made a bad decision with poor execution to try to cross a high mound...

    The Raptor doesn't go anywhere without...

    I wanted to see what "uncommon" things everyone keeps in their Raptor on a daily basis. I have some more room in my small storage container and looking for ideas. I keep a tactical folding knife, small toolkit, tow strap, ratchet tie-down straps, flashlight, blanket, umbrella, ice scraper and...

    Problem with front camera

    I have a 2013 SCREW and wanted to use the front camera yesterday. I had diff lock and off-road mode enabled and was below 15 mph. When I tried to activate the camera, I got the message that says the truck must have diff lock+ORM or 4-low engaged. I tried it with 4-low on and got the same...

    Deer whistle on the Raptor

    One of my neighbors hit a buck on I-70 while going 75 MPH in his Jeep SRT8. The deer ended up about 20 yards from where he hit it and destroyed the front of his Jeep. Needless to say, he's really bummed and trying to figure out if he wants to keep it after the collision. Deer crossing the...

    Rigid or Vision-X fog light kit

    I'm ready to purchase LED lights for the fog light opening in my Raptor and have narrowed my choice to the Rigid Dually fog light kit and the Vision-X Optimus fog light kit. I'm looking for the most bang for my buck and I'd like to get some feedback from the very knowledgable people on this...

    FS: Nav-TV for 2013 with front camera

    FS: Brand New Nav-TV for 2013 with front camera I bought the Nav-TV VIM13 with Noah's last group buy. I'm not as comfortable with cutting and splicing the wires as many of you on the forum seem to be and I haven't been able to find a shop that has experience installing the Nav-TV to the Aux...

    High fan noise at startup idle

    I've had my 2013 Raptor for about 3 weeks. I've noticed when I start the truck, a loud noise that sounds like a large fan comes on after a few seconds at idle. As long as its idling, the noise continues. Once I start driving, the noise stops after about 5 minutes and doesn't return as long as...
