    2024 build date???

    Hi guys. I ordered my 2024 Raptor with 37 package on the day it opened. I haven’t gotten anything from Ford or my dealer on the proposed build date. A couple weeks ago I was told by my salesman that Ford will start building them in early January, but that’s all the info I got so far. For...

    Creaking sound from leaf springs

    I’ve been hearing this little creaking sound every time I get in/out of the truck. I then realized if I rock the truck from side to side while parked it also makes the sound. I haven’t noticed it while driving. It seems like it’s coming from the leaf springs and it’s most obvious on the...

    Which Fumoto valve should I buy?

    Fortunatey, I have a metal pan so I’d like to make changing the oil a little smoother. Which 107 model did most people buy? I thought about the 107N, but I’m concerned with the clearance of the long nipple with the 2 metal pipes nearby. I figure the standard 107 with the plastic nipple add-on...

    How to block front holes on side steps?

    hi all. I bought the husky liner front mud flaps and now I want to figure out a way to block the holes in the front section of the side steps to further block dirt and mud front from hitting the sides. Anyone have recommendations? Thanks!

    Retrax creaking sounds

    Hi all. I’ve had my aluminum Retrax cover for a couple months and I think it’s great in general. A few weeks ago I started noticing a high-pitched creaking sound when hitting decent sized bumps. I initially thought it was my suspension, but I figured out the sound is coming from the rear...

    OK to always leave in 4A?

    Well, I took the Raptor in to the dealer for recall and tranny TSB. I was called by my service advisor to let me know the truck was ready, but she also said the mechanic noticed I had it in 4A and she stated it should always be in 2WD, otherwise it would cause excess stress on the tranny. I...

    Ford Perimeter Plus opinion

    There’s been a few recent posts regarding the Ford Perimeter Plus. I have the 802A tech package with remote start on my 2018. Does this OEM product just add the impact detection? How well does this work? It’s interesting that Ford doesn’t include it. Thanks.

    Question about powering my Dash Cam

    Hi all. I have a BlackVue dash Cam which it great BTW. I have it connected with their Majic switch which automatically turns the dash cam off when the voltage goes below 12 V to prevent battery discharge. Lately, if the car is parked more than 10-12 hours the dash cam ends up turning off...

    Transmission TSB 18-2274 question

    There was discussion on the forum within the last couple weeks about this latest TSB which is supposed to reprogram the powertrain control module for trucks built on or before May 15, 2018. Just wondering what people's impression was after the update. Currently my 2018 Raptor shifts very...

    CarPlay not consistently connecting

    Proabably 1/4 of the time when I connect the cord to my iPhone the system doesn't show the CarPlay app. However, it does start charging the phone. I made sure my phone is up to date, and it seems the Sync 3 is up to date. I tried toggling the CarPlay button on Sync 3 on/off, but it does...

    Front yellow LED marker

    Hi. I really like the look of the 5 yellow LED markers on the front. Is there a way to keep them on during daylight without the front headlights also being on? Perhaps with the FORScan? Thanks!

    Need your opinion on this bike rack...

    My 1Up USA bike racks have been in storage for a while and I decided to get a Yakima cross bar system to install them. I finally got around to the install and I'm a little torn. I know it's functional, but I'm not sure if I'm totally into the look. What's your opinion? Does it look all right...

    Aux Switch question...

    Anyone know how I can make a couple of those 6 Aux switches in the overhead function without the engine or ignition ON? I want to be able to control my dash cam so it’s doesnt drain my car battery when on park mode for long periods of time when I don’t actually need it (like parked in my own...

    What is the sensor on the rear view mirror?

    I’m planning to install a dash cam directly behind the rearview mirror. However, I noticed there is a small rectangular sensor on the back left of the mirror. I tried looking everywhere in the manual and I can’t figure out what the sensor is for. I’m concerned I may block something important...

    Can I disable the lift gate button on the remote?

    I always park the Raptor backwards and very close the the wall and I'm worried I may hit the lift gate button on accident and cause it to get scuffed badly on the wall. I don't really need this feature and prefer to open it manually at the lift gate control. Just wondering if this is easily...

    Best dealer for service in the North Atlanta area?

    Trying to figure out where I should take my Raptor for service during my ownership...which will hopefully be a while since I bought the Ford ESP warranty for 8 years. :) We all know some service departments suck. I live closest to Angela Krause Ford and to Sandy Springs Ford. Anyone in my...

    Best method to wire my Valentine One?

    Hi all. I'm getting ready to install my Valentine One with Savvy in my new Raptor. That means I need to get wiring around to the bottom under the dash on the driver's side to reach the OBD. That's where the Savvy plugs in. I guess I'll just run the wire under the A-pillar. For those...

    OMG!! Lead Foot or Lightning Blue???

    I found a Lead Foot at a great deal and I put down a deposit. The color is so different in person and I love how it's not a common color at all. However, I just stumbled upon a Lightning Blue at a great deal which was my original favorite color. I love how the blue contrasts with the gray...

    Should I buy an extended warranty?

    Picking up my Lead Foot this week and contemplating if I should get the offered “extended Ford warranty” which will give me 6 years/100,000 miles bumper to bumper. There is a $100 deductible. I haven’t always been a fan of extended warranties, but this is my first Ford and first truck so I...

    Which color hides dirt better: Lead Foot or Magnetic?

    I'm deciding between these 2 colors and while black has always been my favorite color on a car I have developed a little love/hate relationship with black lately since it's so hard to keep clean. The Raptor won't fit in the garage and I wash my own cars since I don't trust the car...

    Differences between 2017 & 2018

    Hi all. This my first of hopefully many more posts. I’m considering ordering a 2019, but I’m not sure I can wait that long and have thought about maybe buying a lightly used 2017 or 2018. Can anyone tell me or direct me to what the differences are between the 2017 and 2018 model years...
