I thought I would be suffering a lot of FOMO today with the Gen3 announcement. I have a 2020 Raptor bought new just 3 months ago.

Even though there is some cool stuff—I wasn't blown away. In fact, I think the new front grille is actually *less* mean looking? Is it just me?

Anyway, what I really want actually is the new Sync 4 stuff—specifically the new wireless connection to Apple CarPlay. I really hate having to plug my iPhone in every time I get in and out of the Raptor. I really don't get why Sync can't just to connect to CarPlay automatically. Ugh. JUST WORK! I know that there is no software ability to "upgrade" Sync 3 to 4—but is there a way to upgrade the physical system to 4? A kit?

Thanks,

—Bruce

I'm definitely not digging the rear applique! The FORD letters look way too small! Loved the orange color, but everything else was kind of meh to me. Doesn't really matter, I'm in love with my '20.

It looks more like the GEN1. Flatter. But I need to see one in real life. They SAID the grill is bigger than ever. But from the pictures so far, I like GEN2 better. Especially how the FORD grill assembly creeps into the headlamps. I think that just looks CHUNKY and cool.

Me too. More than ever. I was really worried this morning that I'd suffer from FOMO panic. Not really. Maybe wait for the "R" to get all panicky?

Well, the way I'm looking at it, I wasn't going to be swayed even if the V8 came out. My truck was GooseTuned at about 1500 miles. It runs phenomenal. I can't describe it, but I love getting in it and driving it.

How much does that run? I went to their website and there is more than one option. The 3K option? Do you feel that bump, truly?
