I've had mine a week and love it. Upgraded from a fully loaded Hemi Grand Cherokee Overland. The Grand Cherokee was a mid-size SUV that fit everywhere and turned on a dime. Had an initial learning curve in the Raptor trying to park it and keep it in its own lane, but otherwise I wish I could just drive it around 24/7. Love it.

First thing I did was replace the antenna with a "Stubby" so it could get through the garage door. Then I had to reorganize the garage so the truck would fit into the garage. Replaced the wheels with 17x9 +12 Vision Split (Satin Black). Used FORSCAN to turn off the double-honk when you get out with the engine running and to turn off the fake engine noise coming through the speakers.

Next week I'm getting Jimmi' Jammers installed on all four doors and removing the lock cylinder on the driver door. Already has Ford Perimeter Plus and LoJack installed, but this is Texas.
