    HELP - Rear End Clunk/Pop (no not that one)

    Same issue. Installed icons on the rear about a year ago and get a clunking only in the wet. Only when turning into bumps on the road. Fortunately I live in a mostly dry area and have a short memory. So I forget about it until I drive in the rain or mud. Then it annoys the hell out of me...

    Sorry just found this this thread... https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/2020-raptor-rear-view-cam.74687/page-5 But feel free to post if you have any additional information. Looks like it’s going to be a while to get this figured out.

    Front/Rear Camera Problems

    Anybody else having Front or rear camera issues? Brand new Gen 2 here and both my front and rear camera go dark intermittently. Took it into service and apparently the cameras are faulty and the company that makes the camera has gone tits up due to Covid. “Ford is looking into other...

    Pressure washer on wheel wells and running board

    Thanks Y’all. Just trying to make use our existing household pressure washer. I’m using it for the foam cannon and rinse. I think with the wells, I’ll be getting a little too close for comfort. Nothing a little elbow grease and a brush can’t handle. I have line-x in the rear wells and I’ve...

    Pressure washer on wheel wells and running board

    Anybody use a 3000 psi (2.5 GLM) pressure washer on your wheel wells and/or running boards. Figure I can just add distance on the boards but the wheel wells are bit more tricky. Do you guys see any issues using a 40 degree nozzle. Rear wheel wells are line-x coated.

    wierd Carplay volume issue

    2020 here - just had this today and restarting my phone did the trick as well. I have Waze installed but it was not open or running at the time. Hope this doesn’t persist.

    Move from BMW X5 to Raptor?

    BM owner for the last 10 years and new raptor for last 30 days. No regrets. Unless you have the X5m you will not see a huge gap in performance. I was really concerned about steering feel because BMW over the years has been legendary when it comes to driving dynamics. The options for steering...

    GEN 2 Below invoice dealers in SoCal?

    Villa ford is collecting raptors, they aren’t interested in selling under MSRP. Haggled with them for a good 3 months - I think they have more raptors than another vehicle in the lot. I was able to get a deal through Santa Margherita ford which is my local dealership. However, I was about to...

    Question for guys that have done rear wheel wells with spray liner!

    Had mine done recently at line-x south coast. Still considered an essential service around here. 75 per well, as an add on to when I did the bed.

    New to this

    Just transitioned from a lifetime bmw owner (last car was a 340) to raptor owner 2 weeks ago. I’m pretty happy about it. Lot more comfort and enough sportiness to still put a smile on your face. All while not worrying about the next speed bump or pothole. More importantly - once you get it...

    GEN 2 Dealer installed spray in bed liner

    Just had my bed and wheel-wells done last week at line-x south coast in SoCal. 495 for standard and 75 per wheel well. Said they can only do the rears. Also went with standard instead of premium since I’m covering with a backflip. Pretty happy the results...

    GEN 2 GEN2 Recall for April 2020

    Picked mine up on on the 4/1. Production date was 2/20. Just checked for recall - nothing showing. Looks like it’s a pretty narrow window or they will widen it once they have more info?

    What are the economics of this?

    Same situation here Cali. Dealer with close to 40 2019s on the lot and will not budge. The newest excuse that I’ve heard is that Ford will not build 2021 raptors until the Gen3 slated for 2022. Which means the Gen2 will have a premium. Not sure how much truth there is in this but smells like...

    Differed financing and 3 months payments?

    Yah I just got a response back from my local dealer and he said he “doesn’t think” the raptor is included. I’m not as interested in the deferred payments as I am the 3 month of subsidized payments. Makes sense they wouldn’t include the raptor or any high price point vehicles since that would...

    Differed financing and 3 months payments?

    Anybody know if the new 3 months payments and 3 month deferral will apply to Raptors? I’ve only seen super duty exclusions so far but guessing raptor will be excluded when the fine print is released. The interest rate going through ford will still suck but would be worth refinancing after 6...

    2019 Raptor prices in Southern Cali

    Yah that’s actually my local dealer. They offered 1k off msrp on a 2020. But their inventory is actually pretty low. Villa ford is the dealer that seems to be collecting Raptors on their lot.

    2019 Raptor prices in Southern Cali

    Hahahah I thought that I’d heard every Wong joke! My wife will enjoy this one thoroughly. After 6 years of marriage she’s still trying to cope with the reaction she gets when people learn her name before meetIng her for the first time (She’s 100% white bread and I’m half)

    2019 Raptor prices in Southern Cali

    First post - been lurking for a while. Thanks for your expertise and education. I’m a lifetime car guy that is making the jump to a truck in the next 2-3 months. I’m already planning a trip to Moab with the family this summer, so the off-road forum as been incredibly helpful finding noob...
