    One and ONLY gas mileage thread please

    I agree. I leave my display on the one that shows the angle of the vehicle and the angle of the wheels. IDK why but I just think that is so cool.

    One and ONLY gas mileage thread please

    Gas Mileage This thing gets the gas mileage of an M1 Tank! The advertised gas mileage on my 2014 Raptor is 11/16. I have yet to average over 14 on the highway....and I am a very modest driver. What sort of mileage are you getting?

    Cleaning the undercarriage

    Most of your posts are smartass remarks so I don't know if you are serious about this or not.

    Cleaning the undercarriage

    Sticky mud. :-) This is the best looking vehicle I've ever owned....and at $58k, the most expensive. Maybe after a week or two I will not worry about mud in the undercarriage and permit people to use my truck as a billboard for advertisement stickers.

    Cleaning the undercarriage

    LOL It is something you do three times the first week you own a new vehicle and then once a year thereafter.

    Cleaning the undercarriage

    Just took my Raptor off-roading. Performance exceeded expectations. Getting back on the blacktop I slung Alabama red clay over everything. Since it is not yet a week old, I decided to hose her off. I looked under the truck and there was mud everywhere! Big chunks of mud had filled...

    Sync with Blackberry contacts?

    On the drive home from buying our a Raptor I synced up my BB and my daughter's iPhone. The voice commands for calling contacts worked flawlessly. The next day, with just my BB in the truck, it would not/could not call ANY of my contacts via voice commands. My contact list is...

    Bead lock?

    The insult was directed at me an I just chuckled when I read it. I wondered if maybe there was a test I had to pass before purchasing a Raptor to prove I was worthy of ownership and not buying more truck than I needed. :-) I accept his apology and will assume he had had a few drinks when he...

    $57,700 total out the door. That includes 3.75% tax plus $200 doc fees. $55,415 MSRP - 801a ($4,760), moon roof ($995), tailgate step ($375), bed extender ($250). The dealership had 4 active deals (or so they said) on the vehicle so I didn't try to negotiate with the. I had tried to...

    New Vehicle Pet peeve

    Purse? LOL. You Californians must think all men carry purses like you SF boys. Here in Alabama all I carry is my wallet, car keys and usually a 9 mm.

    New Vehicle Pet peeve

    I found this: Fellow Ford spokeswoman Christin Baker this week pointed out that Ford reported its participation in the CPFF in its public SEC filings. She also said Ford participated in the Federal Reserve's Term Asset-Backed Security Loan Facility, noting that "these two programs addressed...

    New Vehicle Pet peeve

    Ford CEO Alan Mulally was the former head of Boeing. IMO, he is largely responsible for many of the business decisions Ford has made recently that has kept them fiscally healthy.

    New Vehicle Pet peeve

    Do you really think a green Ford sticker on the windshield does anything more than the huge FORD in the front grill? Personally, I found the green a distraction as I look out the front windshield. I also don't like anything on the dash. My other 2 Ford trucks have a similar but smaller...

    Totally agree! I started to try and peal them off but it didn't look like they'd come off clean so I guess I'll have to live with them. ---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:44 PM ---------- As long as they don't glue them on...

    New Vehicle Pet peeve

    I hate it when they use my vehicle to advertise their product. Beautiful black and grey interior and there is a big green sticker on the windshield for Ford Dearborn. Another sticker on the window advertising Sirus radio inside. A razor and some mineral spirits took care of those. Then I had...

    Mabe I can make it up with some Jack Daniel Single Barrel Select. Bunch of my buddies and I just bought a barrel of JDSB from the JD Distillery in Lynchburg, TN. Being a JD Squire, I got 2 cases. Gooooood sippin' whiskey!

    Wee-wee manure! (My French ain't so hot either) Beer sounds good....maybe when it warms up some....too damn cold right now.

    What is this?

    It's a tight fit in the hitch receiver so a little over 2" square I'm guessing. It has FoMoCo on it....presumably Ford Motor Company.

    Ok then. Please keep me advised of all my Internet forum faux pas. I will consider myself on double secret probation for posting a picture of my 2014 Raptor in the 2014 forum AND on the New Member forum.

    Nope no particular reason. I posted in the 2014 forum first then realized there is a general, introduce yourself forum. Are you the moderator or hall monitor?

    What is this?

    Looks like packaging junk but I'm reluctant to throw it away till I know. I found it in a door pocket. I thought maybe it came in the hitch receiver but it didn't fit that well.
