Jeeps with mods will generally attract more value than those without, but even there you’ll never recoup your costs. I do my mods to get more enjoyment out of my vehicles. In that way I’ve gotten plenty of value out of my mods. I will say that the bed rack and Decked systems I had in my Gen2...

Another $850 price increase effective on April 13. https://www.f150gen14.com/forum/threads/f-150-price-increases-coming-april-13-2022.9931/

Man, I can't remember what I ate yesterday.. It was some article published the date the RR was announced.

Hey, you do you man. I'm not gonna make fun of anyone. I used to have a burnt orange Explorer Sport and I'm not even a fan of the Horns.

I can't deny that 37s are hella cool, but I'll take 35s any day. Besides, my Jeep already has 37s. I don't need it on my truck for the off roading I do.

Nah, you're looking at, at least, $4k for a wrap. That on top of the $82K MSRP, sales taxes, registration, etc. My favorite colors are between Code Red and Atlas Blue. However I could live with AntiMatter Blue, Black, White, and Silver. Maybe I'd consider a wrap after a couple years but each...

Yesterday, I was driving through my local dealers lot. They had two Raptors. Of course I went in to ask about them because the worse that can happen is the Raptors aren’t available. Of course they were already sold. However, the dealer has one coming in at $82k. This dealer does not charge ADM...

Yea, Mary Barra said that and GM had to shutter another plant a week later. They still have multiple cars shipping without heated seats, steering wheels, steering wheel interlock, etc. There is still only a trickle of their SUVs available for purchase. The refreshed Silverado and Sierra were...

I’m giving up on getting a Raptor this year. Between the manufacturing delays and dealer markups I’m either going to wait it out for the 2023 model year or buy a Silverado ZR2. It’s definitely not a Raptor but it would suit my needs for now. I found exactly ONE dealer in Colorado that will not...

Looks like the base price of the Raptor is going up by $3300. This from a dealer memo that was uploaded on the f150gen14 forums. I guess Ford was tired of the dealers getting all the ADM action. Ford is increasing prices across the board but the Raptor is easily seeing the biggest increase...

I'm 'considering' a Silverado ZR2. Obviously it's not nearly as capable as the Raptor, but it would serve my needs well. Also, my Chevy dealer told me they would honor GM's supplier discount IF it is offered on the ZR2. I've made no decisions yet but it's seems like a steep climb to even get a...

I’m honestly surprised there are this many people that wanted Blue Cruise. I’m not criticizing anyone, I’m just surprised so many would want some sort of self driving on an enthusiast vehicle.

Oh, they have IT all over the world. Dearborn, India, Europe, etc. I haven't had to deal with the folks in China. I believe they did do some US based IT staff cuts last year.

I've dealt with Ford IT for years. They've got a lot of technical debt that they are avoiding. It's biting them in the rear. However I suspect this is more of Ford Marketing messing up and those supply shortages making it more challenging to assemble package offerings that Ford can actually deliver.

I bet more than a few people miss the lack of a Super Cab version.

Yea, for one the 2nd row is heated on the 801a, not on the 800a. I haven't seen them in person but my understanding is that there lumbar material is different too.

I’m just going to admit it. I made a HUGE mistake selling my Raptor. Sure, I sold it for $5K more than I paid for it. Sure, I’m saving over $1000 a month in car payments, insurance, and gas. But I miss that truck. It was too much fun. I was planning to buy a Gen3 but the price hike, with no...

Dealer name or it didn’t happen… Seriously, you’ve gotta call out these a-holes.

I’m predicting a base MSRP of AT LEAST $90K. Dealer markups will push it well over $150K.

So you have to get the 801a in order to get the 37s. Pretty much looking at $82K the way I’d want it. I can’t imagine what the base price on the Raptor R is gonna be. $90K?? I might as well wait and see.

From an engine perspective, I totally agree. However that suspension looks to be a major boost. But I suspect it won’t affect dealer pricing. They’ll do their best to have every truck equipped with 37s and give it a $10K markup at the very least. Also, that lack of power will affect...

If that's really the case, I've lost interest. If I get a Gen3 Raptor, it will have to be a Raptor R.

Fellas, this is simple. If it’s too expensive, don’t frakin’ buy it. Ford and Ram are charging what they think they can get. You know dealers will tack on as much BS as they think they can get. They do it because they KNOW someone will buy it. The moment folks turn around and walk away, those...

Coming from the Jeep world I’ve seen a lot of people upgrade to 37s. I put them on my Jeep just last month. That rotational mass impacts milage, braking, wear and tear on components, etc., etc. On my Jeep, of course I had to install a good lift to fit 37s. Eventually I’m going to have to replace...
