    Guaranteed to be a shot in the dark, but who knows of a dealer who has an open GT500 allocation?

    Well now I know

    ...and knowing is half the battle... So, I was driving from the movies in my newish ‘19 Raptor and noticed the indicator lights on the center console next to the gear shift were out. This was also coincidentally the first time I’d driven my ‘19 at night. I figured I’d found my first...

    Ambient Lighting Gone?

    Is it me or is the ambient lighting function no longer an option on the ‘19’s? My kid was asking me to turn the lights purple and just like the ‘17 I went looking in the Ford options menu on Sync and it’s not there. Yes of course I’m too lazy to pull out the owners manual.

    Car list

    my wife likes to make fun of me because I go through cars like shoes. I move a lot (military) so I usually end up swapping based on location or needs. I know ya’ll got some awesome car lists but here’s mine so far: 1990 Geo Metro (4-door) (1994-1999) 1997 Mustang GT (conv) (1999-2005) 2000...

    Xpel full body protection or Ceramic Pro?

    As stated, which is better? On my ‘17 I had the ceramic pro platinum but I’m wondering if the Xpel full body is any better or even similar?

    Issues opening using Auto-unlock

    Apparently the thread I had started was already tagged so I'm switching this one up. Anyone else notice this. When I get enough gunk (road dirt/crud), the automated door sensors won't lock/unlock. I'm guessing a good carwash will fix this but as I can't do that until spring, I just have to...

    Additional rust proofing?

    This is probably more of a question for folks that deal with snow and Ice a lot. My truck will be here by next week and I'm tempted to get its undercarriage sprayed with some additional rust proofing ($350 at a local accessories shop). Has anyone done this? I've heard you have to be specific for...

    Will weather affect shipments

    I was watching NBC tonight and starting in a few days will be the first wave of harsh cold weather ("polar vortex"). It's affecting air travel and they say it'll affect other forms of transportation. So the question remains, how much will this further delay Raptor shipments? I hate to be...

    News Blackout?

    Why haven't many news sites picked up on this delay/retrofit/supply issue? Yes I get that this is a new product roll out but even the media's access to the 2017 has been limited to the auto shows and getting to sit shotgun with a Ford rep who is doing the driving. Potential problem with all...

    Cheers to 2017, year of the Rooster

    Or better known as the year most of us will likely see our jen2 Raptors. Honestly I think I've just come to the sad conclusion there's no way 90% of us are seeing this truck til 2017 sometime. Let's just hope Ford shoots for "Winter" since "late fall" is almost over.

    Not that I don't trust my dealer but...

    How come I can't change any of the options and or color if the truck won't even be produced until November 30th??? If you could see my face, I'm doing that squinting eyes thing as though I don't trust you... Background on my build...the local dealer (actually the only car dealer on the...

    New owner - Soon

    New owner, whenever mine finds its way to the great white North. I'm a long time Ford enthusiast. Was interested in either the Focus RS, GT350 or the Raptor but considering my location and the never-ending bad weather, only makes sense until I get stationed elsewhere to go with the most...
