    RHO vs Raptor vs Raptor R

    I’ve absolutely never felt like the power out of the 3.5 was inadequate - people already flip flop on whether the regular driving characteristics of the R are worth the price difference and some people expect ford to make that margin even narrower? How anybody is willing to lay down 75k+ on a...

    Help - Keep the 21 or get a 24/25.....Asking for your guys opinion/thoughts

    Nooooooo, another VB brother bites the dust.... Enjoy the new truck - she's a beaut! I'm in the 21s have the fewest compromises, camp but that deal you got is almost too good to pass up.

    Serious Sync Connectivity Issues / Sounds

    That’s a bummer - the explorer ST was on my short list for a while but I’ve been hearing a lot of the same sentiments about them lately.

    (Phantom) Supercharger issues already

    I've seen many people remark about this when comparing the 3.5 acceleration to the 5.2 in lower RPM ranges. If you're saying it feels like the 3.5 you may be fine...

    Exhaust Rattle - Cold Start

    Thought I'd add in my experiences as for now this issue is resolved on my truck. My truck's exhaust has rattled since winter of 2021 and has progressively gotten worse over the years. It only seemed to not be an issue in BAJA mode which was fortunate because I do really like the sound of the...

    Software Updates

    My 2021 built in September of that year never received an update since new. I've tried toggling auto updates, being connected to wifi (basically parking on top of the router), disconnected, etc. At this point I'm OK just leaving it as is because I've had absolutely no issues with the software. I...

    Can a 2023 stil be ordered?

    Agreed and agreed! Same boat - just grease the seals a couple times a year and you'll have 0 issues. I open my sunroof every single time I drive the truck April-October practically. No issues whatsoever in 2.5 years.

    Dealer ceramic coating

    While I do love VB I'm not sure it's the best color for stealth wrap. VB has a lot of depth and brightness to it and the stealth wrap takes away from that a bit. I feel like stealth wraps do best on neutral colors. Also - no offense to any dealerships but I wouldn't trust their ceramic coating...

    Smoked/painted head and tail lamps.

    Agreed - have the morimotos and they’re way brighter than stock.

    Reliability

    I've currently got 24k on my 2021 that I've owned since it was delivered in September of 2021 - I can say that this is my favorite vehicle I've ever owned without a doubt. I know that's very little by way of mileage but it's all I've got to go off of with the truck. It's held up well being...
