    Anyone in the market?

    Anyone in the market - Nemer Ford in Queensbury, NY has a 2023 Raptor in a charcoal grey. Mine was in for service yesterday and they were pre delivering it. Fairly basic model but they’re just happy to have it on the lot...

    Anyone looking for a used Raptor?

    Anyone looking for a used Raptor? DISCLAIMER - I know nothing about the vehicle other than I saw it sitting on the lot at Romeo’s Toyota on Broad Street in Glens Falls, NY. It’s the ruby red (same as mine), looks gorgeous on the outside from a distance. Never know - It might be just what...

    Anyone looking for a new Raptor?

    My dealer has two new Raptors sitting on the lot - One Orange and one Ruby Red if anyone is looking. I don't have a dog in the fight so price and ADM has nothing to do with me. If you're interested, PM me and I'll give you a contact.

    Quick Review Gen 3

    Had to take my Bronco Sport in for service today and my sales guy was kind enough to let me take a vehicle home instead of waiting. He let me take a Gen 3 Raptor with the 37 Performance package. I offer this very basic review. Ruby red is my color so the blue does nothing for me. I like the...

    21N03

    Where can I download a copy of the 21N03 service bulletin? I always keep copies in a folder and I've somehow misplaced that one.

    GEN 2 Quick Raptor Door Grommet Question

    I have a 2018 Raptor with ongoing freezing door issues. I've had all the recalls done, problem still exists. There is an oval shaped grommet below each door latch that, if rotated 180 degrees may help resolve the issue or so I'm told. It's not just a hole plug but apparently some kind of...

    GEN 2 2018 Raptor with Frozen Doors...again

    I love my Raptor or at least I used to. I have had every recall, repair and FSB known to man done on this thing. All I have to show for it is a $72k+ three season shiny truck. I live in upstate NY. It snows and it gets cold. I've never had a problem with my $24k Jeep. I'm to the point that...

    GEN 2 Blue smoke...

    Disclaimer - I AM NOT a mechanic. I have a 2018 Gen2 with 14k pampered miles. On Monday, I did a navigation update which, for anyone that has never done one, the vehicle idles for 45 minutes to an hour and can't be interrupted. So that was Monday afternoon. Yesterday, we decided to take it for a...

    GEN 2 Battery Monitoring System and Auto Stop/Start

    As much as some night think the Auto Stop/Start NOT working is a good thing, I'm a firm believer that all components of my Raptor should function as they are designed regardless of the inconvenience they may cause. I have a 2018 screw. Awesome vehicle. It was in the shop in February for...

    GEN 2 First cold snap - Locks froze again

    My patience has run out. 2018 Raptor. I love the truck but enough is enough. First cold snap of the season (teens and 20's) and the locks are froze again. I get the driver's door open only to find that it will not stay closed. Recall was done last year and they froze about a week later...

    GEN 2 Wake up Ford - Locks frozen again

    Time to vent. I consider myself fortunate in many ways. I'm about to retire from a good job that has afforded me the ability to buy my dream truck - A 2018 Raptor. I have a very good friend that is the Sales Manager at my local dealership. I truly feel I got a good deal. With that said...

    GEN 2 Rough Downshift

    I have a 2018 Raptor with 6,700 miles. It's never been off road and is pampered. I have noticed lately a significant jump when slowing. It happens consistently when downshifting from 4th to 3rd and while in "Normal" mode. It seems to be more pronounced the colder it is. Normal or time to...

    Looking for Fog Pocket Alternatives

    Love my Ruby Red Raptor. Expensive but worth every penny. I've added a few upgrades but one is still escaping me. I want to add some kind of white LED light in the fog pocket but I can't pull the trigger on the $1200 options that seem to be so popular. Maybe down the road but not now...

    Radio Unresponsive

    2018 Raptor with 445 miles. First time this has happened with this vehicle although I had it happen with my 2016 Explorer a few times. Started the truck manually, drove 5 miles or so. I shut off the truck. The passenger got out. I stayed in. Was playing music from a thumb drive in the USB...
