    Anyone go from a Gen 3 Raptor to EV Lightning ?

    For someone that has now accused multiple people of being sensitive and having their feelers hurt in here it sure seems like you're coming from a place of experience. I thought we were just giving each other a hard time, maybe I shouldn't have called people that leave cowards. Everyone should be...

    Anyone go from a Gen 3 Raptor to EV Lightning ?

    Its strange, have all of this free time now with my lightning being so much faster than the old Raptor and I never have to waste my time at a gas station. I get back home in record time and plug my truck in, and boom, next time I go somewhere I have a full tank of sparkle juice. I don't know...

    Anyone go from a Gen 3 Raptor to EV Lightning ?

    That's how my father in law is. He has all of the same benefits that I do to owning a lightning and then some. He never goes further than 100 miles from home without flying there, ever. He absolutely will not consider it because it's forced down his throat so much by "the other side".. He could...

    Anyone go from a Gen 3 Raptor to EV Lightning ?

    I'll bite. Old people, put your readers on, envirohaters, put your delta smlet stomping waders on, shts about to get deep. My situation is close to ideal for an EV truck. So I got one. I bought a Gen 3 raptor in November of 21. It was the truck I wanted for years and when the Gen 3 was...

    Gen 3 Windshield Replacement

    There is a soundscreen version and a standard version. My raptor had the soundscreen from factory. 801a included it at the time, not sure if anything has changed since MY21. The dealership replaced mine with the standard version after I questioned the idiot at the service counter several times...

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    Yep, exactly. I had the service writer tell me the "top tech" didn't hear the clunk or my exhaust rattle the first time and I was floored. I had my key fob in my hand and we were behind my truck and I remote started it for him and it hammers away like always on startup and I asked if he could...

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    I had my truck in about 2 weeks ago and they replaced both rear shocks. I would have sworn it was coming from the front as well, but replacing the rears seems to have fixed my clunk completely. It feels like such a better truck. I can't believe I had to wait over a year and 25,000 miles before...

    Tire pressure gauge?

    Yeah, when I sold cars we would try to sell them right off of the truck after service had closed or on a Sunday. There is a whole checklist of pre-delivery items that a service tech is supposed to do to make a vehicle ready for the sales lot. If you're handy and have a friend as the service...

    No dust caps .Like mentioned below they will slowly release all your air!

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    Dealer ordered 2 rear shocks for my truck. Hopefully they fix the clunk, but I would have sworn it was coming from the front and back both. He says they should be in in 7-10 days.

    Educate me on this transmission

    My truck is in the shop for a leaking axle seal and the suspension clunk and while I was looking around about the SSM information I saw this regarding the transmission and harsh/delayed shifting issues. My service guy is on lunch so I'll try to see if he can take a look at it for me as well...

    ONE YEAR OF OWNERSHIP

    I'm at 22.9k with 3+ weeks until my 1 year mark. High mileage raptors are the best raptors.

    Clicking noises when truck is off

    I've always figured it was relays or modules readying themselves in the even that I decided to touch my tailgate release buttons or try to push the door code buttons. Almost like an pre-activation arming of the system in case it needed to react to user input.

    Educate me on this transmission

    Will yours do it in neutral if you coast down past 7mph? I tried it probably 20 times in a row one day and it made some degree of a clunk 80% of the time.

    Educate me on this transmission

    Mine does it a lot when coming to a stop as well. If yours is usually happening when you are coming to a stop, try putting it in neutral at around 20 or 25mph and as you brake or coast to a stop pay attention around 7mph. My truck clunks almost every time like that. Feels like the torque...

    Ford Raptor R vs Ram TRX

    Wouldn't that indicate that one is more desirable than the other? One being marked up and one being marked down is a pretty good measure.

    Gun Safe for '22?

    Any word if there will be a half width option from anyone? Similar to this one. https://www.americantrucks.com/alterum-f150-center-console-storage-lock-vault-t543303.html Ive seen the FAS1 option, but my gun wont fit in the one that fits in our center console. I'm considering buying the one...

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    That's not the same type of clunk I have on my Gen3. It's not easy to explain but it is more of a dull thud than that. I have tried to take videos like that and the sound doesn't come through in the audio. My videos just have tire noise. But imagine dropping a tire from a few inches off the...

    Buyer in California

    Be careful or some of us Californians will have to move to your states to start getting those sweet sweet raptor deals. And I'll start buying up all your NFA items.

    The long term impact of ADM

    I will never spend another dollar at the dealership that charged me ADM on my 21. Not because they charged me ADM because I willingly paid that. It's them being asssholes every time I went in for anything after the sale.

    GEN3 Forscan

    I haven't seen anything that would change the idle speed in forscan, but you can kick on the pro power generator if you have it and get a few extra RPMs that way.
