    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    I imagine they are just throwing parts at it. We will see. Maybe I am being too cynical (who me?). Next step is just try to disable it in forscan (maybe its in there) and pull out the system. Probably wont even use it over my generator. I didnt even know it had the system until I lifted the...

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    Not as long as I have a rental. There are train tracks to jump and tires to burn. The real reason is that place is about an hour away.

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    For future readers with this issue, dealer called. They will have my truck a week while they wait for parts. They say they need to replace the outlet panel in the back.

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    My experience is that the main European brands have no more service issues when new than that of american cars. After 50K miles, thats another story. My wifes car gets dropped off for service, she pulls into the bay, gets out of her car, someone even opens the door for her and greets her, does...

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    It’s at the dealer now. We will see. I’m not very picky about stuff but the Ford Experience is really in trouble when compared to the European dealer experience. Even for significantly lesser priced cars. Interesting to see how things have changed (for good or bad) after owning ford trucks for...

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    Not those specific words but hints at that. What’s funny is it happens right when you start it so the factory or the dealer would have absolutely seen it. I tempted to try to remove it in forscan and just remove all the equipment and use my portable generator.

    2024 Raptor Pro Power Needs Service

    Greetings. Did a bit of googling on this and it seems like the Pro Power units throw errors more than they do power tools. 136 miles on my 2024 Raptor and getting “ProPower Onboard service needed”. I saw a few people that said their factory Pro Power harnesses were not plugged in. I have checked...

    The Option Ford Refused To Offer

    Looks better than the factory “bead locks”. Im still a fan of the regular old base model regular wheels.

    2021 Raptor 98 Miles Blown Turbo

    This is where ford isnt very good. They should just offer to buy the truck. I had an ///M3 about 10 years ago. Just got it and it kept going into limp mode. They had it for a week trying to troubleshoot the software. I called and very kindly and calmly said “i didnt buy this thing to let it...

    Hello from Ohio! 2022 Agate Black @ MSRP

    I’m in Ohio as well. I always rode the RZR down in Laurelville with a bunch of Jeep people. Great trails. I haven’t taken the raptor. May be too big. Although one guy always took his Gladiator.

    The Raptor in it’s Natural Habitat…

    Great pics. Natural habitat … It’s still hillarious that they named these trucks after a dinosaur that had wings but was pretty much flightless. EDIT: I just educated myself on Raptors. I didnt know there were non winged raptors. Maybe that is what these are, then.

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    I have given up on my issue. In the market for a 7.3 Superduty. Man those are just as hard to find as anything else.

    Aftermarket mods, will I recoup dollars spent?

    Yeah. Most people don’t want a modded out truck. Taste, quality of work, quality of products will all be something other buyer consider. When modding the truck, car, whatever, you typically devalue it. You, at best, will only maintain value. A 50K truck with 10 grands of mods in it will usually...

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    No fix. Most dealers say its normal. Just like the 6.4 Diesels shooting fire out of the exhaust was normal :) I think we are on our own on this.

    Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

    Keep us updated. Yeah. You can totally feel it in the pedal. I just drive around with cruise control anymore because the pedal is super annoying. Ito baffling how much you can feel through that stupid pedal. I did take mine out and its all once piece. Last time I paid any attention, Ford gas...

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    You are certainly right. There is no pure anything but basic market driven supply and demand principles still apply.

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    Same here about giving money to the manufacturer. Car dealers are a bit like real estate agents. They take a lot of your money but don’t really add much value.

    It’s just slow

    Well… You did buy a 7,000 lb truck with a V6. Sucker.

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    You may not do ADM with Porsche but Porsche, as a company, is marking those cars up almost 60% from what they have in them. That is why their profitability is so high, supply and demand. Im not supporting either method, ADM, no ADM, a dealer or a non dealer model. Any way you slice it, the...

    Some Water in Intake

    I miss the days of sucking in water then fixing it by pulling out the spark plugs and cranking it until you stopped getting sprayed with water, change the oil, and get back at it. Where the tell tale sign of sucking in water was that it was spraying out of your exhaust pipe. Now getting these...

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    I think people miss the meaning of capitalism from a consumer standpoint. If you don’t like it, go by from someone else. If enough people don’t like it, the company will change in response to the market. Porsche, the most profitable car company in the world, sells the most profitable car in...

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    I think this is being overcomplicated. Take all the corporate cronyism and govt corruption, bail outs, whatever, the market drives the price. If you have 1 of something and 100 people want it, you can charge more. If you have 100 of something and 1 person wants it, you will charge less...

    ADM and destroyed dealer relationships?

    Yeah. Thats the issue. Gen 2s still bring good money.
