    Rappy Graphics no Gen 3 product on site

    Ford is just stupid to not provide these product licenses to subs. It's not like they are going to go into the graphics market. They get free additional branding and all they have to do is say "yes".

    Aftermarket mods, will I recoup dollars spent?

    You should absolutely NOT "expect" to gain any value for modding your truck. Mods "might" increase your value but will almost "always" decrease your market. In reality, any mods that replace OEM parts become very subjective and drastically reduce the overall market. If you moved down a...

    Poll-Do you acknowledge fellow Raptor Drivers?

    I always give a wave to another Raptor if I see it. But definitely not something that many do, as I don't see many waves back. But having a Jeep where everyone waved, and a miata where we all wave.. it's just something I do I guess.

    Squeaking Driver front under dash

    Does or has anyone else hear some weird squeaking under the driver said dash? I've applied pressure to all of the exterior parts around the area, so nothing is lose. But it only happens while on the move. When the truck is cold I don't hear it. But once it warms up, especially as the day...

    Dealer has an allocation

    Such a rediculous statement regarding an 80K pick-up truck. How about we just act like grown-ups and realize the Raptor is not a "necessity" or utility purchase. It is a toy. Let's respect others perspectives and not pretend our perspective is the only one that matters

    Looking for a raptor nationwide.

    Congrats!!!! Odd to see someone opts for the blue interior but NOT the 37s. I love that blue interior. Wish I could have found one. But congrats and hope it shows soon!

    Dealer has an allocation

    You all gotta stop beating down dealers charging ADM and people willing to pay ADM. The dealers have NO inventory. You live in a "free market" society. Supply is low, demand is high. ADM changes the demand curve, but obviously not enough for dealers to stop doing it. So chill out! If...

    Looking for a raptor nationwide.

    No sir, didn't mean to imply waiting was a bad thing. But for some of us, waiting was painful. (My daily driver is a 1990 miata project car) :)

    2023 color predictions.

    In 2023, just to thoroughly **** off those who ordered in 2022, they will be coming out with: Avalanche Leadfoot Race Red and Area 51 from the Bronco...

    Looking for a raptor nationwide.

    Here is what I did. I go to cars.com and search for Raptors. Then I ONLY pull up those links where they actually have pictures of the truck on their lot. At that point, I will reach out if I feel they might move on the ADM. That's how I found my current truck. It was in stock in new...

    Raptor available in Enfield, CT

    Yea that's not going to happen, no such thing as an "in stock" MSRP raptor. I'm sure there are plenty out there who will "quietly" consider 10K ADM. Probably won't post about it to avoid the heckling. If I still was in the market, I'd consider it. So I'm just passing it on in case it meets...

    Raptor available in Enfield, CT

    For those interested. Rep at Family Ford of Enfield CT called me letting me know they have a Raptor available. I suspect it's this one as it matches the numbers he gave me. https://www.familyfordinc.net/new/Ford/2021-Ford-F-150-8326caa00a0e09b06836ac36f28c077e.htm They are currently asking...

    If you are waiting for VIN 1FTFW1RGONFA84047

    I wish someone would sell those 37's graphic without the 37's... they blend so much better!

    Giving up on getting an allocation.

    You can get TRX's at discounts. Koons in Vienna VA, will order a TRX at or maybe even below MSRP unless things have changed. No such thing in existence for the raptor.

    Talk me off the ledge

    See that was my trouble.. I got rid of my Wrangler Rubicon a while back. Currently driving a 90 Miata (my fun car) as a daily and I had no alternative. So I was really impatient. But as luck would have it.. I found a Code Orange Raptor in stock and the dealer came down on the ADM to something...

    Talk me off the ledge

    Coming back to this... I bailed on the Raptor. How some of you can deal with these delays is astonishing, You truly have the fortitude of a concrete wall :) I mean 5 months, still in "order confirmed". While a Platinum order I placed around the same time as the Raptor order, I got an email...

    Hail Mary - 21+ Raptor @ MSRP and In Stock

    Yea, likely true.. but figured a last ditch effort couldn't hurt :D

    Hail Mary - 21+ Raptor @ MSRP and In Stock

    Hey all, Figured, it doesn't hurt to ask. But if anyone is aware of a 21+ Raptor available at MSRP, please let me know. I've had 2 raptors on order, one fell threw b/c of dealer shenanigans. And the other doesn't appear it's going to be here before Fall the way things are going, plus it had a...

    Raptor R Allocation Deposit

    Like many have said, unless the market softens, chips become readily available and the used market normalizes by the time the Raptor R is available. Then 25K ADM is going to be the minimum. If you have the money to burn and your heartset on a Raptor R, then take it. It's sketchy, but...

    Tell me I'm completely insane for even considering this........

    I'm in the same boat... going back and forth b/w the Raptor and something else (though my dilemma is more about being practical vs getting my dream truck). But having looked at many dodges and rams and owning a Wrangler Rubicon for a few years. You are going to be sorely surprised at your...

    3/7 Squad

    I "was" part of the club :D Original build date 3/7 now 3/21. I'm sure i'll be may / june before it gets built. Hoping for some magical influx of chips to cure this huge backlog they have

    Talk me off the ledge

    Ok so one last piece of info... I will probably NEVER off-road this thing. I live in NC, we're not known for our dunes and baja runs. I could take through mud and swamp but that's not me, I'd end up spending hours and hours cleaning it afterwards. I just love the truck, the way it looks...

    Crazy - Delivery date 2/14. got call this am. Your truck is here

    For those asking, Koons is currently at 25K ADM for 37's and about 10-15K for 35's from what I can see. I reached out to them multiple times back when it was closer to 20K for 37s and wasn't given any impression they would move off that. I hope for the OP's sake, he got a better deal. But if...

    Talk me off the ledge

    Unfortunately I currently have a 30 yr old miata (my project car) currently acting as my daily (luckily I work remote). And this truck is going to be my family trip, cargo carrying, and vacation car. The ranger wouldnt' do so well with 2 kids, 2 dogs and so on :) I'm pretty set that IF I...
