    Beadlock delay - any info on timing?

    I dropped mine and carbon fiber last week. It was drop them or wait a couple months more. I have a set of 13/14 beadlocks already taking up space. Going to do the same thing with the silver ring, going to powdercoat it dark grey. The other two orders at my dealer are not budging on the...

    Dilemma regarding hold placed on OEM beadlock capable wheels

    Dealer just got in Ruby Red Screw ( 1st order ) with the regular wheels so I went and looked at it during lunch. I liked the regular wheels ok but want to keep the bead locks. LOVE the truck however, looks great in the ruby red. My order was 3rd out of 5 so they will be pulling the 4th because...

    Dilemma regarding hold placed on OEM beadlock capable wheels

    I do have a set of 2014 raptor bead locks taking up space in the garage I got for a good deal from some kid that put 22s on his raptor-- but my plan was to put 35 12.50 17 BFG muds on them for wheeling trips and my deer/elk hunting trips. If the regular wheels would have been solid grey/gunmetal...

    Order Date, Build Date, Current Status of your Raptor

    Placed order First week of Aug. Priority was 14 I believe. 3rd in line at dealer --nothing yet. Sales said I was next for the last three weeks and should have a build date and day now, not holding my breath.

    GEN 2 Can't lock rear Diff in 2H?

    this was one of the first the things that people modded when the power wagons came out in 2005. Called it " the grey wire mod". Was pretty simple from what a friend said. I would think the up fitter switch will come in handy, but why on earth is the new truck not capable of doing this stock...

    Got my VIN and delivery date today!

    I agree with others on here DO NOT just ask nicely then look elsewhere. I would be furious - 10K markup... Not exactly like saying we are sticking our $1199 "paint sealant" on there or some other BS. That's a lot of money. I made the sales mgr sign the order and write at MSRP and even...

    I just couldnt do it.

    55K for an explorer , trying to wrap my head around that. But it does put over 60K for a raptor in a better light.......... I called five or six dealers in the Knoxville Tn and Chattanooga TN area started at 5K then was able to get down to MSRP finally. I do not make enough to not spend a...

    25K markup over sticker!

    There is one listed for $92K on Autotrader in Tampa FL, Do dealers really think someone will pay that without looking around a little. That is just nuts Every option is just over 70K right, mine was right at 63k

    Spray in bed liner. Factory or have dealer do it?

    Hands down have Line-X do it and have the wheel wells done while your there since there apparently is no wheel well liners for the 17 Raptor. Will cost a bit more than the factory- thin- lining that is done. I have bad habit of throwing stuff in my truck bed that is heavy. I have 2015 now and...

    What say you? Pure white vs Avalanche grey for the 2017 Raptor?

    I went with the Avalanche also because for at least 2017 anyway its only offered on the raptor. My guess is that will change depending on popularity of the color. You won't see it along with four silver or white F150s at a red light.

    What are you replacing with the Gen 2 Raptor?

    2015 F150 lariat fx4 crew cab, cant wait to drive the new raptor - my first one. Big difference with the aluminum body trucks in handling you really notice the weight. I will miss the Magnaflow 3 inch exhaust 5.0 sound though. But I cant wait for 510 lb ft without the rpm needed with the 5.0
