    Fisheye in Paint

    I have the same on mine--2 fisheyes, one of which is quite noticeable on the driver's side front fender. Ford has documented it, and authorized repairs. Scheduled May 22 for repainting and re-clearing that whole fender, which they will have to remove. I plan on cancelling appointment, after I...

    My Raptor Just Got Banned from the Car Wash

    Same price ($29.99) here for unlimited monthly premium "Metro" washes--does a fantastic job. I roll through a minimum of 2 times per week, absolute minimum. So that's right at $3.75 (or less) per wash, and it takes 1.5 minutes to go through the tunnel, and then I spend a solid 15 minutes with my...

    My Raptor Just Got Banned from the Car Wash

    Agreed! My local wash does a terrific job with both my previous Gen 1's and the new '17. Huge blessing because I simply don't have the time to do the quality job my OCD brain would require with a couple of buckets of water and various sponges and brushes and microfiber drying towels....

    Bed liner preference

    LOL hamster, I used to do the same thing! Wait.......why do I have recent photos of other vehicles in my phone :ROFLJest: Maybe mellowed out a bit...but not a pushover.

    Bed liner preference

    I definitely understand the points guys are making about the superiority of aftermarket spray in bed liners (not "the" as my post says.....damn autocorrect again....is driving me absolutely crazy). Good point on the aluminum and no rust issue, adjusting the liability into asset column after...

    Bed liner preference

    Exactly--I am more than happy with the factory spray liner I got. Every time I send any of my vehicles off to a shop for something, even an oil change at the Ford dealer, I'm putting my entire vehicle at risk for.....well, just pick something--joy ride miles from bored lot boys, door dings...

    GEN 2 Truck Order Discussion

    OMG :win: I wish there was something I could do. Coming from someone that played the waiting game, I am confident you will get a truck eventually. Just keep pressing forward, whether its with a stock unit on the ground somewhere, or ordering (I would say look for another dealer) a 2018, you...

    Awesome I hope you're loving it! Weird that mine sat idling for so long--I had the same 15 miles. Oh well. And the world keeps turning....

    Order Date, Build Date, Current Status of your Raptor

    Thanks xxaarraa. Here is one thing that I thought was interesting-- I checked in my '16 Z51, and it has plenty of gadget goodies too of course with all the different monitors, and it doesn't even bother having a section for idle hours. It just has engine hours. Maybe I'm extrapolating too far...

    The rain is a pain. The hail is scary. When you're new to this whole aluminum stuff....

    No, just commute miles from Spokane. The damn hell is playing with the Raptor at the moment.....better not bite.

    Gen 2 Ingot Silver thread

    Wow that's the first one I've seen with a canopy. Jealous of your weather. Just stepped into the gym now, and hoping something is left of my truck when I come back out--bad thunderstorms with prolific hail.

    Oh wow, that's you. That must have been a hell of an experience! I'm glad it got sorted out, and you are enjoying the truck now. I bought in Spokane Valley actually, Gus Johnson Ford. Now that Parkers own the Cda Ford, I am open to potentially come back home for Ford purchases. By the way, I...

    Gen 2 Ingot Silver thread

    I'm thinking it came from the factory like that since my salesguy grabbed a plastic package that contained the mounting goodies--he was heading to have it installed. I said, "Hold up. I'll take that package....". I threw it under my rear seat, where it will live the rest of its life...

    Thanks hamster. The truck menu shows both engine hours and idle hours.

    Do you have an opinion on this hamster? On how it does, or does not, effect a new engine?

    iPhone pics, so nothing fancy, and the truck isn't even clean, but I'm enjoying it! And.......I see the photos are not oriented correctly again. Would love to come back and edit them if possible....
