Day Late. . .
. . .installed the Pedal Commander finally!
Took me longer to get my body (6'5", 300 lbs.) under the dash to reach the connection AND zip tie down the wiring than it took to plug the PC in.
LOVE IT...can't explain why it took me so long to get this mod.
Highly recommend...
Thanks for the post Birdman...excellent detail and discussion. I'm now confident I can do the install of Rigids D2's without having to pay a local shop to do it.
P.S. How much blood can I expect to loose while making the under-dash AUX wiring connections?
I've ran Royal Purlple in all my vehicles and ATV's for over 15 years now...not one problem or issue.
For my 13' Raptor, I use Royal Purple's 5-30 with K&N's HP2010 oil filter...change mine out between 9K-10K miles. I don't do a lot of hard driving and 95% of my driving is on pavement...
Please forgive me if this has already been discussed in these forums as I have looked to see if these particular tires have been compared/discussed specifically.
I really cannot find anything negative about either - maybe that the KM2's are louder than the KO2's...which is to be expected.
Or...
Only 100 MPH???
Finally was in a place where I could literally open-up my 2013 Raptor...WOW!
Very impressed with it's 0-100MPH excelleration. However, it wouldn't go any faster than 100...is the engine "governed" to not allow it to go over 100? The RPM's were nowhere close to being...

Hey folks, don't know if I'm just being overly sensitive or "anal" about my new 2013 Raptor, but I want ask the Forum to get piece of mind anyways.
I love my new Raptor and have literaly 0 complaints...however, I have noticed that if I hit a bump harder than "normal" or go off-roading while...
After reading all the pros and cons of changing-out my new 2013 Raptor's oil, I decided to perform the oil-change myself. . .
. . .just put it this way, it's not fun having to go to Wal-Mart at 12:30 A.M. for an oil-filter wrench - after discovering half-way through the oil-change that you...
First Time Changing My Raptors Oil. . .
. . .looking for ideas on how not to spill oil all over the skid-plates and everything else while performing the change. Should I drop all the skid-plates or just use the opening in the plate for the oil filter, etc..
I know about draining the oil...

Very quick turn-around for me...thankfully!
For those of you who want a great deal (I'm paying 2.5% over Dealer Cost) and a somewhat short...
My dealer, Grande Ford (San Antonio, TX), is primarily a truck dealership and does a ton of Ford truck business...thus they probably have the "Ear" of the area Ford Truck Rep. and have the volume that dictates a short "window" for Customer Orders.
Let me know, and I'll be more than happy to...
"Blood" - New Member here, and my first request, but since you seem to be a popular fella and a big help for us impatient, yet-to-get, new Raptor owners...can you look my order up please?

I actually forgot to include them (ADV $814 / Fuel $140.40)...that being said it is still a very good deal - keeping it in perspective on where you live and what the market is willing to pay. In Texas, there are dealers selling them $5K-$10K over MSRP!!!
Thanks for taking the time to break-it down Raptor911...actually Louisburg, KS is a bit away from the San Antonio area. My dealer is only less then 15 minutes.:cheers:
Thanks again TowerHog...after checking with SVT first thing this morning, I popped-in on my Salesman and asked if he could confirm a couple of things. He first showed me their daily print-out of orders and mine was on there. . .with the following changes:
- Stock # is their order #: 0231
-...
Yes, Grande Ford is about 15 minutes, at most, from my house...and I've already ordered it this past Monday. I appreciate people trying to help, but the point I was originally trying to make is there is a dealer in San Antonio that will give anyone a good deal on a new Raptor...2.5% above their...
Here is my pricing in a nutshell (keep in mind the key here is that they are selling it to me for 2.5% above thier cost - Dealer Invoice)...
MSRP (total base and options) - $55,260
Dealer Inv. (Dealer Cost) - $50,787.40
My Cost (Dealer Inv. +2.5%) - $52,057.09
Detail - $85.00...
