    2021 Raptor 37 Package after 650 miles…my feedback

    Everyone I know who has owned a Range Rover has had issues w/ them ranging from constant minor annoyances to major stranded on road/left @ dealer for weeks & weeks w/ loaner. Don’t really understand the attraction when there are so many other capable & more reliable (& often cheaper) Euro SUVs...

    Any trade raptor for new f150

    NOPE. not on the tow/payload ratings, decent amount of fudge factor built into those #'s for obvious reasons. That being said, keeping the load @ 2/3 of the max rating & lower will make the whole experience much more relaxed & the truck wont feel like its being worked too hard.....which is...

    Gen 3 Raptor is Overpriced, you are all Insane

    It’s nice to have both. I mean…that’s kinda the way it goes w/ a vette anyhow unless you are a single guy & live in like southern Cali or New Mexico or something corvettes are just not a realistic DD vehicle and if you’re seriously “cross-shopping” the Raptor w/ a vette only way that makes sense...

    Ceramic Coating

    It’s going to make the surfaces treated easier to clean after the fact like anything ceramic coated….but in terms of protecting the protection (the PPF) it doesnt make any sense as anything thats serious enough to damage PPF isn’t going to be reduced by a ceramic coating. So you’d have to decide...

    Ceramic Coating

    Won’t be more budget friendly & certainly won’t be more protection than Xpel ultimate or some other ppf, course you could go full OCD **** retentive & do a ceramic coating OVER a ppf, & then you could run head first into a suicidal deer like I did 35-40k into ownership & pi$$ that $7-10k right...

    Careful what you wish for

    I am just LOLing at this - I figured it’d get a reaction, just not this much haha! At the end of the day the guy does live in UT & does off-road these vehicles, he got the Gen3 b/c he thought it’d be better overall than the TRX. I like the graphics on the 37” package more than any other...

    Careful what you wish for

    That is funny. I didn’t mean to ruffle Feathers too much- I thought it was kinda funny tbh….and he absolutely had way more issues w/ TRX than previous gen2 Raptor which is exactly why he went & got a Gen3 to own/review

    Careful what you wish for

    Lol it was the paint issues that I thought were F’d up, the metal lodged into the rotor or whatever- user error I suppose, looked like a piece of adjustable shelving honestly My point was & is- just don’t think it’s wise to rush into buying these new “Covid era” vehicles right now, for a lot of...

    Careful what you wish for

    Been saying….insanity to pay over MSRP or just buy any expensive vehicle w/ never having even seen or driven one especially when it’s a brand new design & even more so on the back end of a trade war, logistical bottleneck, & a pandemic lockdown. Quality control out the window. These are...

    Raptor R - Waitlists & Prices

    When you can get a 707hp 3 row SUV that can tow? Like ***** on a bull as they say. Looks great, & I am sad to see the large RWD (those are AWD now though no?) manual transmission (oops they took that away), roomy light weight (oops nope that’s not the case either) saloon as they say…..but this...

    Raptor R - Waitlists & Prices

    Lol - I dunno man, & while I agree the HP wars are crazier than ever- you can make an easy argument that having a 700hp full size 4wd truck that can tow 10k lbs makes a SH*T load more sense than a 600+ hp 4 door sedan w/ limited storage space slammed to the ground rolling on dubs w/ 1/4”...

    Raptor R - Waitlists & Prices

    not Surprising, there's been plenty of "test mules" for what happens when you tune a Raptor up to about 550-600bhp, & from what I've read/observed seems like not too many durability issues @ that power level as long as cooling/fueling is addressed - but Ford engineers are being tasked w/...

    Dealership replaced leaf springs under warranty......

    My 2020 already squeaking @ 15k miles I think it started @ like 10k my 2018 didn’t really have it at all It’s annoying, my leafs look new as they should, & were also doused in Amsoil HDMP early on too which “should” have lessened probability of dirt/grime causing the noise esp w/ such low...

    Raptor R - Waitlists & Prices

    What you talking bout Willis!? By the time they’re ready to go to college it’ll be free, or maybe you’ll get taxed on all the gains in the 529 before you even use it right? Scary times boys.

    GEN 2 New Mickey Thompson Baja Boss ATs?

    All that also makes sense until you drive a tuned raptor on studded Nokian snow tires in a bad winter….then you feel like a “secret ninja” Who’s one of the only mofos on Or off the road who doesn’t give a F what comes you’re way & you can just drive “as if” there is no winter period, on the...

    2021 Raptor-Leadfoot Fender Flares …should I paint to match body color ??

    I don’t think it’ll look good esp on a leadfoot….I have a 2020 801a & actually think the black plastic mirrors & handles look better than body colored as well, provide a nice contrast. If you’re thinking of a different look consider either a) wrapping them in a subtle different color or texture...

    Don’t drive a 2021 LOL

    I test drive a 2021 & own a 2020 & in a nutshell? I feel the same Way…however Infeel Like the coil over rear is by & far the biggest improvement, I wouldn’t be surprised if it outhandled a Dodge Charger lol! Im Not a huge interior/luxury guy (have had 2 801a gen2s) , but I def like the...

    840HP with CRP Stage 5 Turbos

    I've always been confused as to why alot of members here DON'T think a truck that is like literally designed & pre-destined to be the factory 1/2 ton w/ the MOST parasitic drivetrain loss outta the box (until TRX came out) & then remain hopeful it somehow won't be the case or overinflate their...

    Towing with a scab, 37's, Deavers...

    Damn what a ***** cop Side note- oh yeah that looks just fine (If there was an eye roll emoji insert here) - my biggest gripe w/ the Raptors…def a WD hitch needed if doing this regularly, the overall Payload on mine gets “exceeded” doing errands w/ the whole family on the reg In which...
