When I unplug my I-phone from my truck, the battery on my phone will go dead much faster than normal if I do not open up Pandora and Waze manually (the two apps I use in my truck) and shut them down manually. If I toggle through the open apps on my phone, it does not show them, so I need to...

I previously owned a 2017 Raptor that had all kinds of issues and now I have a 2019 which runs great except for when it is cold (my 2017 also did the same thing). I have never had a vehicle drive so different when cold verses warmed up. The acceleration and shifting is horrible. It doesn't...

I captured my first set of nGauge data logs over the weekend which are easy enough to open in Excel, but I do not know how to interpret the data. Can anybody shed some insight or a link to a cheat sheet?

To all, The 2019 Raptor that I ordered is getting produced tomorrow (04/11/2019) and I will be putting my Geiser and Deaver+3 springs on it as soon as it is received so that I can run 37" tires. That said, the brand new factory LT315/70SR17 BF Goodrich KO2s will be for sale. I won't ship, so...

Just had Geiser and Deaver+3 springs installed, so I am now looking at 37" tires. Is there anybody out there that regretting jumping from a 35" tire to 37s? I am also closely looking at the weight of the 37" tires and worried about some highly rated tires (Nitto Ridge Grappler, Toyo Open...

I did a search and I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. I am interested in lifting my 2017 Raptor 4 to 6 inches for looks and off-road ground clearance, but I want to keep as much of the existing suspension components as possible. I saw something from Stage 3 Motorsports called the...

I finally have the perfect performance tune to meet my needs!!!! I have had my MPT tunes for almost a year now and love the change in performance. There is absolutely a night and day difference between the power created with the tune in comparison to stock. So much so that it was really hard...

I apologize if this thread already exists, but have you every wondered what somebody looks like when reading a post, or what makes them tick? I thought a thread with owner mugshots, pics with family/pets, etc... might be interesting. The only criterion for this thread is that the Raptor owner...

Fixes For Two Nagging Issues (Gas Pedal Vibration and Hesitation) I love my 2017 Raptor, but I had two ongoing issues that drove me nuts for quite some time. 1) The first problem which I have had resolved for numerous months was a frequent and very annoying gas pedal vibration. I read...

Anybody else having horrible radio reception issues? I had a shop do the wiring for my fog lights and my radio reception has become horrible. Is there something that I can easily check that might have become disconnected when they wired the fog lights? Everything seems to be okay at the...

I was in the process of switching from one tune to another when something went wrong with the install. I am getting an error message stating that I must install the stock tune, but when I try loading the tune on my nGuage that I believe is the stock tune, it won't install, nor will any other...

Interested in thoughts on adding wheel spacers to get a more aggressive look since there seems to be complications with going to bigger tires. Any insights that I need to know about wheel spacers?

As stated in other posts, I am not completely sold on how the 10-speed transmission shifts. Shifts from 6 through 10 gear are great, but under normal accelerations, the shifts from 1st to 3rd and 3rd to 5th (2nd and 4th gears are skipped) are very noticeable to me due to the extra RPMs required...

A long story short, I love numerous things about my Raptor, but I also have a few annoyances that I would like to determine if they are specific to my truck, or just traits of the Gen 2 Raptor. If there is anybody near the Cincinnati area that would like to get together to chat about their...

Looking for solutions to reduce the intensity of my fog lights for street use. The end caps easily screw off each individual light, so are there cheap filters that can be inserted for street use and removed for offroading?

I parked in a public garage yesterday that had a clearance of 6'10", so I knew I would fit, but my antenna hit on everything and took quite a beating. I decided to cut it down like others have suggested and tried to eyeball the perfect height so that it won't needlessly hit, but it would be a...

To very briefly recap my Gen 2 experience, I took delivery of my 2017 Raptor on December 26th and it has been in the shop on two separate occasions for 8 days each due to irregular acceleration (light surging when hitting the gas). Late last week I got to drive another new Raptor that was just...

I hate reaching out and asking these questions, but I'm not sure if I have an issue with the 4 Auto on my 2017 Raptor or not. When you put your truck in 4 Auto and hit the gas, do you hear a swooshing noise, or something that sounds like "Shshshshshshshshshsh"? It isn't overly loud, but it is...

This is driving me nuts because I am not sure if it is normal or not, but I feel some slight vibration in the gas pedal while I am driving my new Gen 2 Raptor. Does anybody else feel anything? With all other cars that I have driven, I don't feel anything via the gas pedal. Thanks for your help!!!

I hope this hasn't already been done, but I thought it would be nice to have a thread devoted solely to Gen 2 issues/dislikes from those who have received their Gen 2 trucks. Here are a few from me to get it started: 1) I don't like how the transmission skips 2nd and 4th gear every time when...

We had our first minor snowfall in Cincinnati since I got my truck. To keep things safe, I tried "Weather Mode" this morning, but something didn't feel quite right. I could definitely feel additional drag and mechanical engagement at all times whether there was wheel slippage or not. I...

Picked up my new 2017 Raptor on Monday and noticed something that didn't feel quite right in the rear of the truck on my test ride. I mentioned it to my salesman and he correctly informed me that the tires may need a few miles on them since they were sitting for quite a while on Ramp 59. That...

I read somewhere that the new ecoboost engines now produce their max torque at 3500 RPMs instead of 2500. I want it at 1500 RPMs. Has anybody seen a torque curve?

Does anybody know if the 3.0 shocks on the 2017 Raptor have adjustment knobs for compression and rebound? If not, can the 3.0s be modified to have adjuster knobs? I have found the ability to tune shocks for different riding conditions to be a great feature on several side by side off-road...

Just placed my order on Monday, but it didn't get entered until Tuesday due to server issues at Ford. I can't wait to read everybody's comments/advice.
