This thread was very helpful. Just tackled this today as well. I have to say, I was anticipating this being worse based on some of the posts here. It took me about 4 hours (seems to be the average time based on these posts). The passenger front most plug behind the shock tower wasn’t that bad. I...

very cool, likely one of the lowest mileage gen 1s, if not the lowest. Did you drive it back to VA or have it shipped?

Congrats! I actually bid on this as well. Glad to see it went to a good home. I had the same thought process. Basically a brand new gen 1 truck.

That's where my problem lies. I have purchased 4 vehicles from my dealer and have a great relationship. But the dealer is so big and my sales person took a different job so it's almost like starting at square one.

Just wondering if anyone knows dealers around the country that won't be charging a markup on there initial allocations? My local dealers were all saying 10k+

This thread has really helped a lot. I have a set on order that I am hoping come in next week. How long did it take you guys to install them? Anything I should do in the mean time? Is it worth pulling the stock ones off in advance and prepping anything?

I bought mine at 18 all on my own credit. I became pretty infatuated with them when my dad bought a 11 screw brand new. I was only a freshman in HS at the time and through high school he very rarely let me drive it. It basically became a personal challenge for me to be able to buy one. I was...

For any large items or even when I shipped my dog I used this site called U-Ship. Create a profile its free and post what it is you want to move and you basically just get quotes from a bunch of shippers and you can look at there history and the feedback they have gotten. Used it 3 times and...

We should try to set something up! Been itching to get back out and abuse the truck.

I got Ticketed for factory tint on my truck in SoCal. Had my eye doctor write me a prescription stating I needed X amount of light blocked while driving to safely operate a moving vehicle and they dropped the charges...

I don't think its a bad deal either. I may be biased because im in Cali and the resale of these trucks is crazy. But I was in a similar position to you and over paid for mine because I had the raptor bug. Granted im happy with mine. I could have gotten a better deal if I had waited.

Did any of your insurance companies hassle you abut this damage happening off road? Do you have off road coverage written in your policy? I have state farm and they have always taken care of me but I am always fearful of them denying a claim from off road damage if one was to come up...

I am going to SBCC. But hoping I can transfer to UCSB after this year!

Unfortunately not... I moved to CA for school. Miss MN but love the dunes and weather here. Enjoy the MOA! I lived 20 minutes south of there and worked at Sears there in High School.

Aweosme! I am off on Tuesdays AND Wednesdays. I can get there on a Monday night or Tuesday morning and wheel! Shoot me a PM if those days work for you. Im in Venura

Im in ventura and understand completely. I am a wrangler driver also and have to constantly wave while driving. I love the mutual respect people have for other wrangler drivers. I see 3-5 Raptors a day on my commute to santa Barbara, always flash my lights or wave and never get anything.

2010 6.2 loaded. $615 a month

MY dad got a free alignment on hiss 2011 Screw after they moved his truck to mid perch. Apple Valley ford in MN. only charged $200 for the adjustment and free alignment because it was in the first 12 months.

Bring one if you have it! I just missed out on an awesome auction on Ebay for one. Interested in others also. Also have a set of take off front shocks to use as partial trade if someone is interested. Thanks

I had a bad experience with them also. I purchased one of there synthetic winch ropes because it was the cheapest I could find. Showed up 5 weeks after I purchased it but the rope is great and have had little issues. Sounds like they just drop ship everything from China

How many miles would you guys recommend waiting before replacing the diff fluid?

wow looks great! the only part I'm fuzzy on is if the Sync, and steering wheel controls still work? I would do this in a heart beat with a new 4g LTE iPad.

wish it wouldn't cost as much as the rack itself to ship or I would be all over this

That looks really clean. From MN and have seen a lot of vehicles destroyed in a short time from salt but we have had a really mild couple of winters which means less salt exposure. This truck is like brand new and is not a bad price. I wouldn't hesitate at all. There isn't a bad raptor out there...

Interesting to read all the responses to this thread. Actually this forum in itself is rather amazing when you think about all the different types of people who drive these trucks. To see the people who are middle aged and this is the nicest vehicle they have ever owned to the guy who has it...
