    FS: 2020 OEM Beadlock Wheels

    Everyone is jumping on this so quick, maybe thinking it’s for wheels and tires? The last line makes it sound like wheels only

    Roush OEM 20" Wheels, BFG AT KO2 35" tires - like new, less than 100 miles ($1800)

    I think this is a good deal for sure.. I’ll just admit outright that I’m still torn on going up to 20s on a Raptor. But damn I love the look of these... I’ll reach out sooner than later if I decide to pull the trigger. I’m not too far away from you. Out here in Richmond KY

    Roush OEM 20" Wheels, BFG AT KO2 35" tires - like new, less than 100 miles ($1800)

    What ended up being the total miles on the set? And I’m now in KY, so might work something out with you. How do they ride being that they are 20s vs the normal 17s that cushion the ride well?

    2019 Raptor In Action Video

    Or the shocks are just a way for Ford to monitor your driving habits more closely, as a friend pointed out to me. And of course, another way to squeeze us for another $1000 or so.

    Dealer misleading discounts - how is this allowed?

    I instantly put them on the list of dealers I won’t do business with. I feel your best bet will always be online shopping, and find dealers that have realistic discounts disclosed up front (for instance, between $1000-$2500 off)

    long term reliability

    I don’t see any good reason the 3.5 wouldn’t be reliable year after year. Especially with the improvements on this generation of the motor. Ford engineers are genius level folks from what I can tell, so a fair amount of trust should be given

    ... and when you're not off-road?

    At times, parking can be a little frustrating, since it seems parking spots aren’t wide enough to give me a feel good feeling that my truck won’t get dinged. So I just park far out and get a little extra exercise. Everything else, seems fine to me. Proper weight distribution (hitch) will...

    GEN 2 Are all FRF GEN 2 Owners AHoles?

    Yep! Been a member since 2010, and only 36 posts. Correct. Your point? Posted more in RaptorForumz, back when it was an active community.

    GEN 2 Are all FRF GEN 2 Owners AHoles?

    Yeah, I completely understand what you’re saying. I’m member #38 of this message board, so I’ve been around a while, and am on my 6th Raptor. There’s definitely a different breed out there, but trust me, there are awesome Gen 2 owners out there as well!

    Thanks all!

    2011 black/black screw 13,000.00

    Fun fact... Driving that many miles in a Raptor would equate to approximately $50000 in gas alone!

    Tonneau cover

    Bakflip G2 has never let me down on 3 previous trucks, including 1 Raptor. Good product that can be found for $700ish at times if you keep your eyes open

    Ford Raptor Invoice Pricing

    That’s exactly right! Just be willing to shop around! I found a dealer 250 miles from home that was willing to knock off $1400 off MSRP, AND over allow on trade, AND swap the standard wheels for the bead lock capable wheels free of charge. That’s what I call customer service, as well as luck I...

    New addition to the driveway

    Locked in a pretty smoking deal on a new 2018 802A this past Saturday. Couldn’t be happier!

    Outstanding trade in value Gen 2

    IF your trade in amount exceeds the price of the new vehicle, you don’t pay tax at all. true at least in most states. I have not paid sales tax on my last 3 vehicles. And have been ahead every time, because I only buy vehicles that retain incredible value.. Raptor/JEEP/Toyota’s for the...

    Outstanding trade in value Gen 2

    It had just under 5000 miles on it. Lol on the Sasquatch comment.... Reading that crap is sort of what sparked me to come back here to post that. Reason for trade was more along the lines of condensing down all my debt, rather than just to buy a Tacoma. But at least with the Tacoma, I’m...

    Outstanding trade in value Gen 2

    Thought I’d post this, just FYI for anyone’s out there that may be in a position to have to trade their Raptor in... Just traded in a 2018 Supercrew 801A with original MSRP $61805. Paid slightly less than that, yet pulled off a trade value of $62500 towards a Tacoma TRD Pro. Hope that...

    GEN 2 New 17 and 18 FR for Sale

    It’s inevidible that the values will drop, just as they always do with every production vehicle. Hellcats sold above MSRP year 1, at or below MSRP year 2, and well below MSRP year 3. Its the way of the world. 10% of dealers selling above MSRP won’t make a bit of difference to this equation

    3 to 5 light grill mount

    And that right there is exactly the look I'm going for... "Old School" if that's old already. Still the sexiest look in my opinion. Thanks for the replies everyone. I'll take a closer look at NFab

    Intro and looking for 2018 FR

    Silver is very nice looking with the dark accents and bead lock wheels. Yeah, definitely keep Deacon Jones on your radar. I’ve purchased almost 40 vehicles in the last 23 years, and I have to say it’s one of the better experiences I’ve had. In the end, I received a $1500 over allowance on...

    Intro and looking for 2018 FR

    I searched every option I had within 200 miles of Shaw AFB SC, and found Deacon Jones Ford to be the best, no BS dealer close by. They are in Goldsboro N.C., and I worked an out of state deal over the phone/email, and got exactly what I asked for and more. Give them a try. There’s two 802a...

    3 to 5 light grill mount

    Does anyone have info on light bar mounts for the more traditional style lighting on the 2017-18 Raptor? I’ve seen mostly LED light bar mounts, and that’s just not my thing. Combing the internet has yielded only one result from Foutz Motorsport, and I’m not about to shell out the $800 plus...

    Snagging up my 5th Raptor soon!

    Only my second new one. Bought a 2010 the month Raptors came out. And then another 2010 a few years later at a screaming deal, followed by a rough 2011 that I turned for profit and a decent 2013 I flipped for a profit a couple weeks later. So maybe that 4th one shouldn't count. I'm very...
