    Ford Removed American Flag Dash Insert on 2023 MY

    It appears Ford removed the American flag dash insert from the 2023 Raptor interior, at least it’s confirmed removed from the Raptor R interior. I have a confirmed allocation from a dealer in Jackson, TN at $20k ADM and as I wonder how much the PRC has invested in this vehicle’s development...

    Backfire Entertainment

    I have an early build ‘17 I took delivery of in February ‘17 and just a few months ago noticed it backfires pretty consistently after every fill-up. I now find myself dramatically getting on and off the throttle after each fill-up purely for entertainment of making the truck backfire, like a...

    Torque Converter Causing Engine Rattle on Startup?

    My early ‘17 build has rattled on cold starts pretty much since I took delivery of it March ‘17. Below is a link to the sound I get and unlike some on this forum, I don’t believe it’s the cam phasers. My rattle comes from the opposite end of the engine, more where it mates up to the...

    Wastegate Rattle on Startup Fix?

    Has anyone found a fix to the wastegate rattle heard when starting the truck? I know dealers are telling guys this is normal, just wondering if there's a silicone sleeve or something to line the actuators that can eliminate the rattle.

    Texas Motorworx First Class Custom Shop

    I've seen a few posts from guys looking for shops specializing in Raptors in North Texas. Thanks to FRF, I just had some work done at supporting vendor Texas Motorworx, and they're a first class shop.

    DFW Owners & PPF

    I'm working through my laundry list of items and got the Paint Protection Film line item completed today. Anyone in the DFW area considering PPF needs to check out Invisibra in Carrollton. Brian Martin is the owner-operator and he's the only guy who will touch your truck. After fairly extensive...
