    If you make a Raptor shirt with less LGBBQ colors I will buy one. No offense intended, just throwing it out there.

    Tail light theft in San Antonio

    DO NOT stay in a hotel and leave a Raptor or any Ford truck in the parking lot in San Antonio without having badass insurance. They should really put signs at the city limits. Thefts of trucks, lights, contents have been rampant for years there.

    Commuter Car?

    About 6-8 years ago, we had a GM credit card. Get a notice in the mail from the CC people that we can get an extra 4k on the purchase of any new chevy before Jan 1 or whatever, plus whatever points we had accumulated. We loaded up and went to Capitol Chevrolet and stroked a check for 8k and...

    Commuter Car?

    Yeah, no reason to spend $$ to recoup 5-10k when you trade in the Rap. It won't pencil out.

    Commuter Car?

    Is that a Z50 or a monkey or something? I poke around for one sometimes. My kid is buying a pull start "dumb and dumber" mini bike tomorrow. He has a ktm 300 2 stroke, mind you, but his buddies are building a track for tards. :)

    Rear diff leak - warped axle housing end causing seal to leak

    That's a pretty good gap. Me, I would heat it with a torch and try to "tap" it back into shape. No idea if that part is heat treated though, so may want to check on that. Or get everything as clean as an operating room and try some quality RTV and let it set up before putting in oil.

    New Purchase: 2023 Discounted vs 2024 at MSRP

    My experience is that the Gen 3 moon roof does not stick at all like the Gen 2. The Gen 2 popped like you're opening a jar of pickles most of the time. I haven't noticed that once in almost 2 years in the Gen 3. I also replaced the tracks on our Gen 1, took 3'ish hours if I recall correctly, so...

    Commuter Car?

    I use mine for work, about 25k miles a year. No way I'm gonna die in a crash in some compact trash, I will did like a man doing something horrific! :) I don't think another 600 miles per month makes the numbers work when you consider insurance, tags, maintenance, depreciation on 2 vehicles...

    New Purchase: 2023 Discounted vs 2024 at MSRP

    I say get the year old one for the big sticker discount. You never know where we'll all be in a year, it may not even matter then.

    So.......anyone try these. I might have to.

    It would still look like a murder if I had to work on my turbos.

    Sounds cool. I'd like to see some vids, hopefully without down pipes and aftermarket exhaust, to hear the difference over stock.

    What ya putting in your lip

    Your dentist was full of "you know what". There is research that shows smokeless tobacco use shows no increase in cancer risk. Never heard of it doing anything to a jaw either. The real risk is smoking, heavy drinking (they say) and having HPV. I know a gal that had been a dental hygienist...

    Driver seat(blue recaro) shifting left or right when turning

    Bailing wire and pliers fixed it on my Gen 2. I can't remember if it was a broken weld, but the seat was moving up and down at the round bar that goes right to left under the seat. I think I posted up photos in another thread, years ago.
