    The Differing Modes of the Raptor

    One of the fantastic things about our Raptor is the Off-Road mode in all of it's iterations. Sure, we have the Cool card that came with the Raptor that attempts to explain the different Modes. Don't know about you, but I think it is about as intuitive as a mudhole. "Let's see... so I push the...

    Looks great... not much reception...

    :( Craven really has a good product, but I am not getting squat for reception. Stations that were strong, now fade in and out if I can get them at all. Are there different sizes for the Raptor? Is going to a different size stubby an option? Falcon

    Hill descent grinding

    Hey, does hill descent make a grinding noise from the front on your trucks? Tried it for the first time on a 60% grade. Worked great... but man what a noise! Normal? Falcon

    If you were making a list of things that you "WISH" you would have done before you went to pick your truck up, what would be on it? So far I've got my Weather Tech floormats ready to go in, and my Craven stubby. I have all my financing ready and insurance set up... I now need to research the...

    Truck tire step

    Once upon a time, in a land far far away... I made a post about tire steps. Here, in the land that knows no sorrow... it now lives again. How to get up to hood level if you aren't BigJ??? I am glad you asked, for it is actually a great question. I have seen people put a huge dent in their...

    Corvette Power?

    This is bizarre, made even more so in light of the fact that it is real... or as real as 6 million in DARPA budget funds can make it. The second one is powered by Corvette power plant. Bizarre! Whole article here: http://tinyurl.com/33nfqes Bizarre. Falcon

    Extended Service Plan (ESP)

    Has anyone purchased the ESP on a 6.2 Raptor? I checked the site [ http://www.ford-esp.com/ "]] and entered my VIN... this is what I got: Is that because my VIN is brand new and hasn't got a window sticker yet... or is that a Raptor thing? Falcon

    Ouch!

    Wonder if this guy is gettin a hard time down at the tavern? <G>. A dealership owner rolled this SVT Raptor demo on his "private farm" so they didn't file a police report and sold it on eBay... with an original clear title. Hey, it's not damaged. It's broken-in. Hats off to Jalopnik...

    12 volt power point

    There is always a need for 12v power where you don't have it. Some trucks are coming from the factory with power points and even converters installed in the bed. Has anyone addressed the best way to get power to the bed? I found these power points that are pretty cheap and seem to be well...

    Great vid. I believe that the Raptor has this as standard equipment (not to be confused with Trailer Brake Controller). Cool! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sJEyI6rmvqg&feature=player_embedded

    Collapsible Jack Stands

    Great thread here! One common denominator to this equation seems to be the Jack Stand. Air Bag, Hi-lift, bottle jack, no matter. To be safe, they all need a couple of jackstands. In light of that, I embarked on a search for a good portable stand, and I found this: From the YotaTech forum...
