    Tracking new Raptor??

    That was total clickbait, OP. I was totally expecting some pictures of a Raptor going around a road course like Laguna Seca. :)

    Exhaust Leak Only When Cold?

    Whew, maybe I'm imagining the noise/tick. Thanks!

    Exhaust Leak Only When Cold?

    So after remotely starting my truck on a cold morning, I walk up to the vehicle and notice a small puddle of water near the middle of the truck (not near the engine where the A/C usually drips), and I can also hear a slight ticking noise that I never heard before. I stoop down and can see water...

    Shopping for some LED tail lights.. need your opinions!

    Does anybody know where to buy these lights with the 2015-style "halo" LED strips anymore? The Lighting Firm closed its doors last year, and now I only see the LED strips sold separately online (not complete plug-n-play already retrofitted housings).

    Yes, mine are the standard black bezel ones.

    Shopping for some LED tail lights.. need your opinions!

    My lights from The Lighting Firm came in and while the the LEDs get a little washed out in direct sunlight (acceptable performance in my mind), they are insanely bright at night. The entire ground around the rear of the truck just glows red. I love the distinctive look, and can't stop staring...

    Well that's discouraging! Thanks for sharing your experience. :(

    Turn Signal Hyper Flash Solutions: Re-Programming BCM vs. Resistors

    I’m considering replacing some of my exterior bulbs with LEDs, but I understand the lower resistance or load tricks Ford’s Body Control Module (BCM) into thinking a bulb is burned out, so LED turn signals will blink twice as fast (called “hyper flashing”). The usual solution seems to involve...

    Retrofitted LED Tail Lights

    Are these still in the preproduction or prototype phase? Or on the shelf ready to buy?

    High Pressure Power Steering Line Leaking Already?

    It's probably ok (but not recommended) to top off and limp to dealer if you monitor the level frequently, it could have been leaking like that for weeks. Just be mindful that you could lose all power assist (and then be left with manual steering) while driving, and the loss could be abrupt (not...

    High Pressure Power Steering Line Leaking Already?

    Thanks for the data points and advice guys! I hope the replacement part is a revised design so I don't have to revisit this again in another 40k miles.

    High Pressure Power Steering Line Leaking Already?

    Brought my 2011 in for its 45K service, and they found a weeping high pressure line. $100 special order part + 3 hours labor. This seems a little soon (to me) for PS components to be failing already, or is this a common repair? They said I could leave it alone for now and monitor it but could...

    Are there any "Ford 6.2L" license plate frames?

    Almost a year and a half later, mine is starting to show its age (the gloss is pretty much gone and the red "L" has faded to pink), but for the price I'm not complaining. These frames are just vulnerable to UV rays, so I may need to replace mine soon (I already tried polishing them but the...

    6.2L intake manifold upgrades

    Uhh.... what Ford 6.2 has direct injection?

    JLT oil separator

    So why doesn't Ford (or any auto manufacturer) include these from the factory? What is the risk of doing nothing? Dirty intake, lower octane from contamination?

    Cold Air Intakes Mythbusted

    While the GT500 filter is a cone design, I felt it and the pleats are definitely paper like the conventional filters. It is not gauze, foam, or mesh like most aftermarket filters.

    HP with tune

    Mike at 5 Star said he'd one day post a table like this below (example taken from the F250 Super Duty tunes) for the Raptors, but he has yet to follow through. You could estimate power at the crank (and gains at each RPM) with a nice table like this.

    Are there any "Ford 6.2L" license plate frames?

    Does that mean you can or cannot make a hitch cover with the 6.2L logo?
