    Not mine..Mega Raptor

    I've driven one that had an updated Fabtech lift (original builder uses a basic Icon kit) with 46" tires. Drove WAY better than I assumed it would. Nothing like a Raptor, obviously. But I could easily drive in the 70's on the freeway with no sway, etc. No problem parking it either. Just had to...

    Best dealer for warranty work in Central Florida

    They tend to be. Worked fine with me when I took mine in. And I know plenty of others that have gone there with custom vehicles that have had warranty work completed. Can't hurt to call and ask them so you feel more comfortable. Again, ask for Stacy.

    GEN 2 Power running boards?

    Most clear bra companies make a piece that applies to the lower doors of most trucks, and if not, it's very simple for them to cut. I used this on my 2013 Raptor when I installed AMP steps. Not a single mark/scratch/dent after several years. No, it will not protect from large rocks, but it...

    Wrapped the Baja Rig

    But then you also have a vehicle that has been repainted, potentially costing you more money later, such as when traded. Nobody has a good reason for painting a truck in the eyes of the future owner/purchaser. Cheaper to replace a wrapped section than to paint it. Think of it like this: If...

    Introducing the ADD PRO

    ^^ Are you referring to just the "Intercooler Bracket Kit"? Or the "Intercooler Relocation Kit"?

    Introducing the ADD PRO

    Is there any affect on the adaptive cruise with this bumper? I've been looking for another Raptor lately, and while I don't need the Tech Package, I also don't want it to be something that turns me away because I'd like to run the ADD Pro. Thank you. Charles

    Ruby Red is not an option for 2018. They replaced it with Race Red.

    Deavers for the new Raptor

    Would be helpful to the thread to know which 37" tire you're referencing. Very helpful info on the wheel weights. Thank you.

    Fair Dealers In Central Florida?

    ^^ I've had the exact opposite experience, so far. I've been to three dealerships, and none of them would budge from their "ADM". Then I tried one of those corny "chat" boxes that showed up on Coggin's website, leading to a salesperson calling me. They offered me a black 2017 at MSRP. I'm...

    Fair Dealers In Central Florida?

    ^^ Why'd you have to convince your dealer to raise the price? You mean the amount offered on your trade?

    Fair Dealers In Central Florida?

    Jason, Thank you, but Avalanche is actually one of the colors we DON'T want. Are you taking orders at MSRP for 2018's, yet? And Wizo, I've considered going out to Clermont as well. Sunstate Ford is right down the street from my office on Rt 50. They actually advertise a "discount" of...

    Fair Dealers In Central Florida?

    Thank you. I'll check them out. ---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:33 PM ---------- Every truck at Veteran's is over $80k, even the 2017. Am I missing something? Didn't think even a fully loaded example priced out that high.

    Fair Dealers In Central Florida?

    My brother is thinking about getting his first Raptor, and I'm considering buying my second. Anyone here find a "fair" dealership in Central Florida area? Thank you, Charles

    GEN 2 Tinted windows on Lightning Blue

    FYI, the rear windows on most cars are simply darkened glass. They don't have the heat reduction, nor UV protection of tint. If you want to really cut down on heat, it's best to tint the rear windows as well.

    Switching out exhuast...MRPB, Black Widow or Dirty Deeds

    Keep the muffler mounted as close to stock location as possible. I had a custom side-exit made with a simple Magnaflow muffler, but with the muffler being mounted basically under the rear cab, I switched it back to stock location and dumped the exhaust next to the spare. HUGE difference! And...

    Against my better judgement, I broke down and installed KO2s....

    FYI, you can get pre-cut panels of clear bra for the lower sides of your doors. You'll just have to find a company close to you to order through and install. I have the Amp steps as well, and installed the clear bra to prevent chips. So far, so good. Been close to a year. Truck looks...

    Got my headers installed, video of corsa and stainless works

    Not sure where you have the actual muffler located, but I tried a Magnaflow muffler with a "Lightning style" exit, and the noise drove me nuts. Used the exact same Magnaflow muffler, moved it back to stock mounting location, dumped it after the axle, and it was a dramatic difference in the cab...

    Mild Exhaust Upgrade

    I used a simple Magnaflow muffler and have it exit just after the axle. I originally did a side-exit, but because of where you have to mount the actual muffler for this style, it caused a lot of in-cabin noise. I later switched the muffler back to its original placement under the bed and it's...

    37" Tires - Nitto Grappler vs. Toyo Open Country M/T

    Toyo produces the Nitto brand as a lesser expensive tire (in most cases), so by default, the Toyo's are a little bit better quality. I've had 40" Toyo's on a previous build, and the ride quality was great.

    ALL NEW Rogue Racing RENEGADE Bumper

    If I've already cut the frame horns and installed the RPG bumper, can this bumper still be installed? I understand that this bumper requires cutting the horns as well. Just wondering if the cuts are the same? Thank you.

    OEM (The Real Deal) Ambient Lighting discussion

    ^^ Yup, that's what we're going to do if I deem it necessary. Just wanted to try it for a bit before deciding.

    OEM (The Real Deal) Ambient Lighting discussion

    I added the cupholder lighting on my 2013 Raptor. Here's what you need to do. 1. Find a VIN from a Platinum or Limited that HAS the ambient light option. 2. Using that VIN, order a complete, upper console trim, including the cupholders with lights. Unfortunately, you cannot order just the...
