Well… here I was a few weeks back, determined to buy another Ford Raptor, after my previous 2nd Gen Raptor was replaced in favor of an F250 Tremor. Both vehicles gave me tremendous and unforgettable joy to own and drive. I was shopping around hard, calling and visiting dealers all over the east...

I usually don’t take to this measure but what I experienced today at Empire Mazda of Huntington NY was next level. I walked into the dealership to close the deal on a used 2022 Orange Raptor, advertised with 1321 miles on their website and with ok pricing of $77k. The CARFAX stated the vehicle...

Just to make sure I don’t do something stupid, is my below perception of Gen3 still accurate? MY2022 - Most well equipped/complete but lots of Q&A issues and reports MY2023 - Likely less Q&A issues than 2022 but also painfully missing some core features (ie Torsen, …) MY2024 - Probably least...

Guys - Hate to say it, but I'm out. I traded in my Raptor 3k below the price I bought it for about one year and 19000 miles ago. I'm waiting on the factory delivery of my F250 Tremor with the 7.3L V8. You might see me again for the Gen3, until then, I'll be at fordtremor.com - great community...

Hey! RAS is less than 3 weeks old and less than 2 weeks on the truck. It's also FluidFilm coated/treated. New price is ~450 USD. Buy this if you want a cheap, capable alternative to Deaver leaf springs. It removes the axle wrap and bouncy back, increases payload by 40% and deletes the sag when...

Hey guys! Looks like there's a big chance of me switching into a "newer" Raptor than my current one, which already comes with some mods. Curious, but I only had these items installed on the truck for 2 weeks and less than 500 miles. PM me if you're interested in any of the following: - SOLD...

Hey guys! wondering what your thoughts are on the following pricing: 2019 Shelby Baja Raptor (new, 6miles on odo); MSRP was $121k. Sells for $90k now. Obviously it’s a leftover inventory, not latest model year - generally feels like a good deal for what it is. Thoughts?

Hey guys! I got a leaking front shock on my 2019 with Fox Live Valve shocks. I’m at 16k miles and just under a year of ownership. does anybody know if this is covered under warranty? Definitively or dependent on dealer willingness?

This is the second or third type of Easter egg of this type they’re hiding in the TRX. I get the marketing gag behind it but wasting the production resources on stuffing a vehicle with this stuff is simply pathetic.

Who wants to buy a stock exhaust from a 2019 raptor with 16k miles? Looks and works great, no rust. Took it off to put an aftermarket one on. If interested, make an offer via PM!

Hey guys! I was just under the truck doing some installs when I noticed that my lip seal on my driveshaft looks very clean & oily. Is this normal? (FYI below picture is a different F-150 truck but the lip seal looks just like mine - red box - disregard yellow). @FordTechOne since you’re the...

FoMoCo is going through some rough times - leadership changes left and right, plunging/stagnant stock price despite 5 year long turnaround efforts, bodged model launches (explorer...). For Americas most prestigious car brand (and for Americans), all of this is pretty devastating. How are they...

I'm looking to change my spark plugs soon with these: https://offroadalliance.com/products/ford-performance-spark-plugs-set-of-6-2017-2020-raptor?variant=31233700397118 Should I also change the coils? Is it okay to use the MSD ones or do I need to go stock to not void warranty? Patrick

Hey guys! I’m looking to rent this camper for a trip: https://forestriverinc.com/rvs/travel-trailers/x-lite/263BHXL/2416 It is rated at ~5800lbs UVW and can handle up to ~1800lbs ccc. I’m looking to tow it with my stock raptor. Any concerns or issues with this? Do I need a WD hitch for that...

Their video says "their inside source" confirmed this... and also a hybrid V6 Twin-Turbo + Electric engine (Powerboost set up similar to the Aviator). However, V8 version as a limited edition model. I'd go for the V6TT + Powerboost.

Im currently planning the build for my raptor to be overland capable and have been closely following the different build threads here. I’m wondering how people think about the loads they are putting onto their Icons/Deavers and beds/racks. From my understanding, the icons in option 3 are...

Hey guys! I’ve been looking to get into some overlanding, given all the camping during childhood. Time to pick it back up! I’ve read through Alan Lams overlanding setup and other posts, seems most people are doing... - Front springs - Rear leaf springs ...in order to stabilize both the ride and...

What do you guys think? Rip-off? Which items should i change or ask for a different piece? The guy basically gave me four options: 3 Pre-amp ones, using the existing B&O infrastructure and one full-blown post-amp one, using a NAV TV device. My tendency is to go to Option 3 (which is Pre-Amp...

As the title suggests... anything?

Found this opinion piece on a capital markets blog. Thought it was interesting and my main concern and wondering was what this would mean to dealerships, service network and warranties. https://www.ccn.com/why-bankruptcy-forgone-conclusion-for-ford-motor-company/

Hey folks! I’m looking for fog lights (for my 2019 raptor) - would love a set with brackets + 2-3 pairs, however, also happy with single items. Specifically, would be great if you were looking to sell your Baja designs (I.e. s2 Pros, squadron sport/pro)...

Folks, you know how a new car has this little paper called "Parts Content Information"? It should say in there what was the assembly plant for the engine and for the vehicle as a whole. Any chance one can lookup this information online via the VIN? I have been unable to get it out of Google. If...
