Fitment is great! As for getting it on and off, I built a pulley system in my garage attached to the ceiling joists, and my garage is tall enough that I can back the truck in and left the tent right off. I leave it hanging from the ceiling when not in use. Check out the iKamper Community group...

And now with the tent!

@Zeusmotorworks Pop the cover off your FOB, use an exacto knife or something similar to trim off the rubber nub that contacts the tailgate release button. Boom, permanently disabled for that FOB. Edit: I made a quick video on how to do this.

Just picked up an ARE CX HD. It's going to support a rooftop tent, so went with the HD version as the crossbars are attached to an internal aluminum frame, giving them a 550lb load rating. Went with toolboxes on both sides instead of windows.

Yup, as others have said, there won't be any trails open in Vail or Telluride, or any of the other mountain towns. Go to Moab instead.

The 2021 F-150s look to have a new interior design. Not sure if that will hold true for the Raptor, but I'd be tempted to wait based on that alone.

You could build something like this pretty easily if you're handy: https://www.instructables.com/id/Truck-Bed-Snowboard-Ski-Rack/ Just be aware, unless you have pretty short skis, you'll have to fit them in diagonally. 165's are probably the longest ski you can fit straight on in the short bed.

Also, you may not know that you can use the paddles to lock out gears when using the transmission in automatic mode. The - paddle removes gears from the "allowed" list from the top down, the + paddle adds them back in. The truck will not shift into locked out gears. Quick vid I recorded just...

Darkness sensor delay is BCM 726-26-01

Sounds good!

I live in Grand Junction and would be happy to show you around/answer any questions. GJ is a perfect base for biking, hiking, rafting, and off-roading.

Yes, you are. Ambient lighting button is right there in the settings on my '17 with Sync 3.4

Updated to 3.4 on my '17, worked perfectly, looks great!

It's not even a "right after you park it" kinda deal. I've been near the truck 4 hours after parking and the sound comes out of nowhere. You know what... first time I heard it was after climbing about 5000 feet into the mountains. Other times it's during hot summer days. I'm wondering if it's a...

I have the same damn thing. Asked about it here a couple years ago, and nobody had any ideas. Recorded it for my mechanic, he had no idea either. Eventually I just stopped worrying about it.

Awesome, thanks for the info! Seems to me that airbags are a better option than having to jack up the truck and put a different length bump-stop on everytime I wanna load up the camper, and there are some good posts here about how to add airbags to the rear. I'll definitely reach out to...

Question on this statement. I'm currently running DuraTrac load range D tires, which are rated for 3,267 lbs per tire, a total of 13,068 capacity total. The truck curb weight is 5,700 lbs, camper weight with full water tank and gear should be somewhere around 1,300 lbs, and passenger and...

You're probably gonna have to suck it up and get a different intercooler. This thread has the cleanest install I've seen.

Yeah, that's another reason why I'm leaning toward the camper. If I can beef up the suspension without totally destroying the unloaded ride quality on the Raptor (which definitely seems doable), that would seem to be ideal. And putting a camper on a truck that's paid for is a hell of a lot...

Unfortunately that really won't work for my needs for two reasons: One, I need to pull my raft trailer, and be able to back it into the water to launch. A 16' raft with metal frame, dry boxes, cooler, etc ends up weighing near 1000 lbs when loaded to go, so being able to drop the trailer into...

@ohpyramids Please do keep us updated on your camper. I'm looking at the same camper myself and would love to hear how the suspension mods work out for you. I currently tow an OPUS off-road trailer behind my Raptor, but that means I have to choose between hauling the camper or the raft/toy...

I know this is a joke, but I had to run the numbers anyways. Assuming a purchase price of $75,000, after 96 months of payments @ 28% interest, you'd have shelled out a total of $188,601.64 :p

True in regards to the constant V8 rumors with no factual basis, but there's actually pretty good photo evidence of the upcoming rear suspension change here: http://www.trucktrend.com/news/1909-spied-2021-ford-f-150-raptor-camouflaged-suspension-bits

If the rumor about the rear suspension redesign in the 2021 is correct, I'd wait for that personally.

That would be enough to get me to trade in my 2017 for sure! Not a fan of the rumor mill, but I'm hoping this one is true.
