    First Ford Vehicle - New Raptor owner in Ga

    Yeah that's a tough one especially with dealer markups going down, everyone is out in droves trying to snag an allocation. I hope you find one and spec one out! 6 to 8 months build time on average but you'll get exactly what you want and the updated ID8 is a plus. xdrive? no xdrive? comp? no...

    Im that guy (Prospective Owner)

    This!!! I can't stress that enough. After having to rebuild one myself, I want to make sure no one has to go through the "divorce-like hell" I had to go through rebuilding one of these...

    A little glimpse into my life

    Way to be Coach! We need a clone of you in every high school across the country. You're proof that even when you're out you never really stop serving your country. We appreciate you brother! And way to be honest (even though it hurts...) but deep down inside I sometimes wish I would've gone...

    Rear-End Collision Advice!

    Hope everyone involved is ok and I'm sorry to hear about the wreck. Send me a PM so we can exchange phone numbers and I'll forward your pictures to one of my childhood friends that owns a body shop. He'll give you a straight forward answer as to what your options are. But honestly it sounds like...

    GOD’S COUNTRY….

    John! Reminds me of Mustang Mountain at Dugway proving grounds utah (area 52). It really is something else to see Mustangs in the wild, climbing up mountain cliffs. Being born and raised in NYC, imagine me seeing that for the first time. damn near sht my pants

    Cholla Canyon - Eldorado Wilderness

    Loving the pics brother. Keep them coming as best you can. Best way to recover is to keep getting after it!!! (and throw some sand in it, and crazy glue)

    Anyone drop the headliner yet?

    Got PTSD when I saw those pics. (Pissed and sht myself at the same time). I dropped the headliner to do a full rebuild on the sunroof and didn't realize Ford made everything out of legos and tin-foil. Got so mad at the headliner that I folded that sht like a G-Damn tortilla to get it out the...

    You never know when it's your time.

    John?! How the hell am I going to know where I'm dropping if I don't have my Canopy Lights during my night jump?? And pulling out those Risers right before I load the bird to grease them is essential in ensuring I don't have tangles! You should've came over to 1st Batt John, we would've taught...

    Gen 3 to Gen 1 consideration

    Damn @TXAG you're like me! I change cars like I change my underwear. But I have no rhyme or reason like you do. I don't do it for the money (but I haven't lost money on a car yet) I do it for the different experiences that come with owning different vics. So having tech in one car and not...

    You never know when it's your time.

    There are several, but the "right" way is to use the proper equipment and above all be safe. I myself have taken a course or two where they've brought out the recovery boards, threw a damper over the steel cable line, set up 2 or 3 anchor points and let her rip! Some one else can chime in with...

    Hello from Jax, FL

    What he said. $27k-$32k. Leaning closer to the $32k+ mark if you have solid maintenance records, clean title, no rust and as close to stock as possible. I've seen small mom and pop shops sit on their Gen1's, inflate the price and wait... they sell! (Military towns have a sucker around every corner)

    My R license plate approved

    In todays society? Good luck! This new world we live in is something else. I think "anti" will probably get you denied and they'll probably put you on some sort of list where the alphabet, rainbow, BLM, and extremist supporters (to name a few) will hunt you down! (joking) I say go for it and...
