    Factory Spray In Liner - Wouldn't again.

    Had a BedRug in my 2012, was great until the new owner spilled gas on it and it got all wavy. So long as you don't carry fuel or are confident you wont spill it was great. Was surprising how well it cleaned out with a quick powerwash. That said my new truck has Line-X and I want to get the...

    87 octane tune?

    Might have to take a look at a trans tune in the near future, made a decent difference on my 2010. Personally I can't get anything over 87 due to my remote location. Quickest I can fill up with 91 is about 450km away. Hard enough to stock 91 for the dirt bike and snowmobile never mind enough for...

    GEN 2 Low engin oil pressure

    Just a heads up when checking the oil you should be running it up to temp then letting the truck sit for 15 min in order for the oil to drain back to the pan. Could potentially overfill if you check too soon.

    Oil catch can needed for Gen 2's?

    One issue with G1 EB's was carbon build up on the valves but Ford made changes to the fuel injection for the G2 EB by adding port fuel injection along with the direct injection which in effect washes the valves. Still the potential for intercooler buildup I guess but the catch can's don't hold...

    Do people flash their high beams at you?

    Got a few flashes when carrying about 250lbs in the bed of my 2018 SCREW. Was enough to tilt the the truck up up slightly. The adjusters on both of my lights are junk (high beam cable/gear seized). Going to have it looked at by the dealer next time I'm in the area. Not impressed with these...

    Door sensor not working in cold weather

    No issues here, have had it work fine down to -30c so far. Have noticed it wont work when wet (rain or road spray) I would guess this is just due to the sensor type?

    Anyone regret their purchase?

    Sold my 2012 and got a 2018. Very happy, no regrets. My feeling is the 12 was sort of a 90% truck and they took it that extra little bit in almost every area.

    That basically hit the nail on the head

    Where is the key for tire removal?

    You can lock/unlock your glove box and center console

    GEN 2 Gen 2 Catch Can install?

    Personally I don't think you really need it. The gen 2 EcoBoost has port injection along with DI which should basically take care of the valve deposits. Also speaking from experience not a good idea if you live in a cold climate, due to freezing.

    Engine Sound ***Just in ***

    Through three trucks they all broke in the bottom corners because of smashing ice when closing the hood. Hard to remember every single time to bust out the ice. Glad the hear the grille stays in place hopefully we see the pricing improve in Canada in the next few years.

    Canadian Raptor Info Breakdown

    Wow that price is unreal, I'll definitely be waiting. That's over twice the price of a well equipped Lariat. Guess I'll start putting money into my 2012, glad I didn't sell in anticipation for the 2017. I was thinking maybe in the 70k range loaded, with the economy the way it is I'm guessing...

    GEN 2 Pricing Discussion

    I'll be waiting for the 2018 models from what I understand that's when they are no longer exclusive to "SVT" dealers. Should see better pricing and hopefully we'll have a better idea of how they're doing. If it's going to be 80k though..... Sherwood Ford used to be Healy in the city, they were...

    Trade for 2014 Raptor and wait for 2018 or Keep My 2011?

    My 2010 6.2 would shut down immediately after startup quite often, never threw a code. Of course never did it for the dealer. My 2012 is alright but tend to blow the power steering hose at least once a winter. Minor enough I'll probably still be tempted enough to get the new model with an...

    Remote Oil Filter relocation kit

    Pretty sure the threads are the same for the 5.4 and the SD 6.2 so any kit that'll work for them should work on our trucks.

    Help with DRLs, please.

    Most smart dealers here in Canada just flip an option in the programming in the truck for DRL's so there wont be any module to get rid of. I doubt any dealer would change it back for you unless you convinced a tech under the table or something.

    Heated seats

    I think guys are thinking the cooled seats didn't come out until MY13 but I own a 2012 and have the AC seats and with the AC seats it also uses the blower to heat the seats. The other post above explains how exactly it does this, there are no elements in those with heated and cooled seats. Since...

    Heated seats

    2012+ models with heated/cooled seats use a blower for both heating and cooling of the seats. There was a post back when the 12's first started coming out about the ducts for the blower not fitting snugly which caused a lot of leakage and someone snugged and sealed them up which made then a lot...

    2015 F150 Website leaked

    Should have done more cold weather testing with the Raptor. Six power steering hoses so far between our two trucks, like clockwork every time it hits -40 there goes another hose. Thankfully Ford covers the $1200 to get it to the nearest dealer.

    Magnefine Inline Power Steering Filter

    As the pic shows the filters also have a built in bypass in the event they do plug up.

    2015 F-150 2.7L with 400HP? WTF

    Agreed, I know most guys would think it crazy for a Raptor but I don't live in the desert and I'd kill for a diesel option.

    Raptor Air Oil Catch Can

    I was running a Racor unit which had an actual filter element. Seems most products on the market are filled with a simple metal mesh filter which likely wouldn't be as affected by moisture as an actual filter element, but they also wouldn't be as effective. I had the can bottom drain to a tube...

    Raptor Air Oil Catch Can

    The fact that it was -40 outside was probably the biggest factor that no amount of regular draining (which was done) or maintenance could counter. Just wanted to throw it out there for guys to be aware of. There's a reason OEM's don't equip these from the factory and it's because they need their...

    Raptor vs Grand Cherokee summit

    Had a 2008 WK Diesel. Was great but doesn't come close to the Raptor. My g/f took over the WK. A few months later she had the chance to use my Raptor and now the WK is gone we have two Raptors. The only thing I miss is the diesel. The new grands seem like a step backwards for capability if you...
