    Fuel Wheel quality question for current owners

    Have you considered Fifteen52 Turbomac HD's? I'm biased as that's what I have on mine, but they are great wheels, and made by a great company - https://fifteen52.com/collections/cast-wheels/products/turbomac-hd-thdab?variant=14352759717954 Don't have any experiences with Fuel, but I'd only...

    Finally a raptor owner!

    Awesome truck man, congrats! That first drive home is the best, flew out and drove six hours back in mine in December.

    Grown man with new toy in WA

    Congrats, nice truck! I took the stock exhaust tailpipe off after the muffler and have axle dumps now. Cleaned up the look and the sound didn't really change. Don't worry about your bed rusting out, people always say that about axle dumps but I've never seen or know anyone it's happened to...

    Graphics Package? Yay or Nay?

    Definte no on the sticker package. In fact, no to any stickers of any kind on any vehicle. They just look immature to me.

    GEN 1 At What Mileage Do Expensive Repairs Start Happening?

    100k on a 6.2 Raptor is fine, barely broken in! Look for one-owner examples if you can find them, get a pre purchase inspection and you'll be fine. Yes, plan on rebuilding the shocks on whatever truck you get whether it has 50k or 100k, chances are they will need done or will soon. Also plan on...

    aftermarket oil flexible dipstick tube

    This thread is a lifesaver! Checking my oil the other day and the tube broke clean in half. Sealed it shut and ordering these parts today. I ordered the OEM replacement from Ford but it looks like a pain to install. Funny story, I asked my local dealer to quote me on replacing it while I was...

    2014 94k Mile SCREW for $35k...Buy or No?

    It's not terrible, but I'd hold out for a better deal. You're going to spend another 3-5k when you're all said and done bringing it up to snuff, then you've paid 38-40k! I think you could get one closer to 30-31 OTD and save the extra money for repairs. I was in a similar boat to you and...

    Help me with my Raptor purchase

    That stutter sounds like shocks to me. My 2011 did that and after I put some new rebuilt shocks on it was eliminated immediately. I’d plan on replacing the shocks, but doubt you’ll be able to negotiate that into the deal. At that mileage they have either been replaced once and need rebuilt or...

    2012 supercrew with 165k miles

    Do you have the service history on the truck? I’d be more concerned with that than the carfax. When I bought my 2011 last year the selling dealer had no records but I was able to call the dealer the truck was sold new at, gave them the VIN and they were able to tell me what had been done on the...

    What is this under my truck?

    Ah, that makes sense. I figured it was some kind of balancer or something. I assume it’s supposed to be loose like that to perform it’s function?

    How to clean Gen 1 stock exhaust

    I also had some rusty/dirty exhaust tips on mine when I got it. I had an exhaust shop cut it off after the muffler and install turn down tips. Looks much cleaner to me! Sorry, that’s probably not the answer you wanted!

    What is this under my truck?

    I was under my truck the other day installing some rebuilt shocks and noticed this weird rectangular block mounted in the space above my frame rail and beneath the bottom of the pickup bed. I have no clue what this is. Any ideas? It’s only on the drivers side. Was at the dealer yesterday for...

    New to me 2011 Super Crew

    Thanks guys. Here's some pics with the black tailgate emblem. I also just put the OEM black reflector deletes on the side mirrors. This was suggested to me by a friend, the reflectors never really bothered me, but it looks so much cleaner without them, especially on a black truck.

    New to me 2011 Super Crew

    Hi All, Just recently purchase this 2011 tuxedo black super crew. Absolutely love the truck so far. Plans are to use this as a camera vehicle (I shoot automotive video work) and a fun daily. First thing was mounting a set of Fifteen52 Turbomac HD's. Not too many good wheel options in the...
