    2025 F-150 Raptor (deleted/moved features) — with pictures

    It is obvious. It isn’t drastic, but I can see the lights moving and then recentering.

    That is odd. My headlights do the start up dance when it auto mode.

    My ‘25 headlights bend. They go through the start up sequence and bend around corners.

    It does look more intentional now. I might seek out that new button panel at some point, but I don’t really pay any attention to big blank in my ‘25. Instead, I’m enjoying the upgrade over the GMC AT4x I had previously.

    I'm pretty sure that is exactly what that means. The '27 801a will probably come optioned like a base XL with a $85k starting price, but you can option everything down to the wheel center caps and seat belt colors just like Porsche.

    I don't think this will happen. The CEO said he wants to lean into off-road performance and make Ford the Porsche of off-road. I'm guessing the Raptor brand will be a big part of that.

    I've gotten spoiled by some of the "electronic garbage", but I would take less bells and whistles for high quality materials and components. I've never used the trailer backup assist, and I've backed a few trailers. I could also live without BLIS if I had good blind spot mirrors. The race to...

    2025 F-150 Raptor (deleted/moved features) — with pictures

    This is a common trend among most manufactures these days. Before I bought my Raptor, I looked a number of other vehicles. I thought a midsize SUV might be a nice change from years of driving full-size trucks. All of them that I researched had brand loyalist complaining of the downgrade of...

    2025 Keypad Options

    My ‘25 Raptors has the Homelink buttons on the visor. I looked at a ‘25 Tahoe, and they moved the garage buttons to the screen. You have to click through a few screens to get to them.

    The real concern is that Ford will downgrade the stuff we can't see on the next gen to maximize profit. Right now, they are saving a few pennies simplifying button modules and reducing the number of SKUs by ditching model specific logos on some shared parts. It is a little irritating, but the...

    I agree with you. Instead of pinching pennies, how about focusing on improving quality. They could save a lot on warranty work while also building a more loyal customer base. I’m happy with my ‘25 Raptor, but I also came from a GMC that I felt was missing features considering it was billed...

    New 2025 some questions…

    I traded a ‘22 AT4x with the 6.2 V8 for my Raptor. I had no real issues with the truck in 40k miles. The on-road ride was good, and the interior is nice with higher quality leather than the Ford. Also, the cameras had better resolution than my Raptor. Finally, I prefer the brake and steering...

    I think having non-functional buttons would bug me more than the big blank. I will likely just leave it alone and hope the Gen 4 still actually has physical buttons when I'm ready to change. I'm not digging the trend of putting every control in the screen.

    Congrats on new Raptor. One of my business associates got a shelter green a few months ago, and seeing his truck really pushed me over the edge to order a Raptor. I agree that the big blank next to the buttons over the screen looks out of place. I don't really notice it while driving, so it...

    Not yet. I haven't done any digging. Hopefully the '24 is plug and play in a '25.
