    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    yeah that's what I'm afraid of - but it's just me in the truck 99% of the time, so smaller is fine really.

    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    Man I can't have the Raptor parked on the streets of Hollywood all the time - that would really suck. So yes, when I move I will be selling it.

    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    Noted. Unfortunately when I do move (probably in the next 12-18 months) my choices are to keep what I have and park on the street and be subject to street cleaning 4 days a week from 8-10am, or get something that fits in the damn garage. I haven't been able to park in a garage for 30 years so it...

    GEN 2 got the tires rotated today LOL

    No you won't. The bump plates are built into the blocks on the oem setup (pretty sure anyway) and when you remove that shit, you will need bump plates. They will roughly be the same distance away as the OEM plates.

    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    Seems 35's are pretty easy to do with some minor trimming.

    The HD are a bit more robust for towing and hauling heavy gear in your bed - L84HD is 1 inch higher than stock, as is L84. L83HD and L83 are STOCK height.

    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    That's kind of what I'm thinking, plus I really love a pickup... The biggest thing that it does NOT have for me is the vented seats... I can live without the sunroof.

    Anyone considering a Ranger Raptor?

    So I can't believe I'm even making this thread, but here we are :p My living situation is likely changing within the next year or 2, so I'm just thinking ahead. I love my Gen 2 Raptor to bits, but I am likely moving to a condo with underground parking when my truck is too tall :( I have to go...

    GEN 2 got the tires rotated today LOL

    No, I said +2HD or +3HD cuz I don't know what you carry around in your bed. From what you are describing, the +2HD seems to be the ticket for you. And Deavers > Icons.

    What's next for Ford Raptor now that Ram came out with the RHO?

    The gen 3 wasn't/isn't enough to make me move from my Gen 2. It's really the same truck with updated rear suspension (best part of the gen 3 IMO) and newer interior (which personally IDGAF about). The Gen 1 was the first, always will be special IMO. But, the Gen 2 was all aluminum/composite body...

    What's next for Ford Raptor now that Ram came out with the RHO?

    Well to those that say they know of no one who would buy a PB raptor... raises hand. I really believe that a PB raptor power plant could easily achieve 600HP, do a REAL 18mpg city and 24-26MPG highway, increase range to 860 miles or so between fill ups while not increasing the weight too much.

    Beating a dead horse, I know. Cam Phasers replaced, now low oil pressure warning

    If Ford agrees to provide a new engine, I'm sure the dealer will be made culpable for some part of the cost, probably installation but I'm just spitballing here. Also, why bother tearing the old motor down if you are provided a new one?
