    The Raptor in it’s Natural Habitat…

    Lunar Crater, Nevada. Dirt, but a decently maintained road. Spur of the moment decision after stopping in Rachel for some swag.

    Backfiring on downshift?

    About this lazy foot: I was just doing a long descent (Ebbitts pass eastbound, descending into Markleeville. Steep windy descent, occasional flat/uphill sections). Was in second, rpm’s 3-4 k, occasional light breaking. But whenever I applied the accelerator (just staying in second. Rpm’s 3k or...

    Check 4x4, tire chains

    Just got the truck back today. The problem was the left front IWE. Dealership just replaced it, but said a problem there is consistent with the intermittent trouble I was having. Seems like it was an easy fix, but there was a couple of week delay while they tracked down the part they needed...

    Check 4x4, tire chains

    The problem showed up New Years Eve after I driven a couple hundred freeway miles in 2H (and driving rain). Before that it had been in 4a for about six weeks. Once it starts snowing I’ve been putting it in 4a and leaving there unless I’m on dry tarmack for an extended drive. I had it in the...

    Check 4x4, tire chains

    My 2021 gen3 (12k miles) won’t reliably go into any drive mode except 2H. This happened a few weeks ago, dealer can see me next week, should be an easy warranty fix, right? Only problem is that I live in the Sierras at 7800’, and it’s been dumping snow since the problem started, and there is no...

    Dealership service wait time

    Yikes! One of the dealers in range of me told me they could look at it in March! Luckily for me mine is a fun truck and though I really *want* it, I don't actually *need* it for anything. My dealer doesn't have a wait list, but they said that while it was in their yard they'd look at it if...

    I did not, didn't even occur to me. I guess experience is that thing you get right after you needed it ...

    Dealership service wait time

    Thanks, I will. But first I want to get home. My "quick outing" has ended up being most of the day!

    Dealership service wait time

    @NJ2020 @2020FordRaptor Thanks for verifying that it's not just my dealer! The dealer has been pleasant enough to work with, I was just in a bit of shock to hear that it might be six weeks before they'd even look at. They have the truck now, and told me that if they finish other jobs early or...

    Dealership service wait time

    My 2021 with 10k miles started flashing check engine light a few minutes ago. Noticed very rough idle at stop light, but no check engine light. When light turned green, truck had very little power, very rough and flashing check engine. Waiting for tow truck now. When I contacted dealer, they...

    Congratulations, and nice truck! Glad to see I'm not the only one in the universe to go with the cast/non-beadlock wheels. Enjoy! (Hoping to join you with a velocity blue, graphics delete on ... current ETA 9/23)
