In the end it is still a great truck... I just really want to hit the mountains again with it. I don't want to rent a jeep to stay safe. I take great satisfaction in taking my own vehicle on the trails. I am a dork that likes the trail stickers on the back glass and consider them a badge of honor !! LOL


Let me know when you want to come back out. I will put together some Raptor friendly routes.

I do not put those stickers on my rig, my co-workers would probably beat me and my good friends would stop taking my calls... I get it though, such amazing places. Great reminder of how lucky you are to be able to visit and access such great spots.

For what it's worth:
I have an svc tune on my '13 and have noticed this exact same thing from time to time. So spending that money may not resolve the issue, especially if the tuner isn't sure what is causing it to begin with.

Thank you for the input ! I did not purchase a tune yet because I don't want to spend that money and not fix anything... no company seemed to be interested in committing to fixing the concern if it took extra work... and I ain't mad.. I get it.

I have asked a buddy of mine to try to get a message to Ford engineering on this. Since the Raptor is their Premium truck, I am hoping they will at least listen. I suspect that when programming this truck for the desert they didn't really encounter mountain type long down hill grades that are causing this problem.
