    Daily Driver + Sports Car --> Raptor

    I was a M3/F150 setup until some major health issues had me sell the M3 (no more track days). Then I grabbed a 2019 Raptor (FPB and Goosetuned). Yes it was a great jump from the F150 Lariat(modified) and yes the Raptor is a fun truck but I miss the M3 very much. The wife has a RR...

    Air filter non raptor

    This response has nothing to do with air filters. I prefer synthetic oil at 5k intervals.

    BUYER BEWARE: 1FTFW1RG8NFC42439

    I checked it out... They since changed the mileage and the new carfax shows the car was never stolen .

    GEN 2 Time to find a new RAPTOR?

    This is a wondering post…. Are you asking if you should sell the truck with all the issues to an unsuspecting person or someone who knows the issues……..and get a different one? You are underwater already but what is that number? Can you pay for the repairs or do you need the loan...

    GEN 2 COBB Accessport - Tuned by GooseTuned

    I am picking my truck up from getting the Cam Phasers replaced (2019 w/ 53K miles). My gut told me to hold off on the Goosetune until after the replacement, which i was ready to pull the trigger then the rattle appeared. What time frame would you recommend before I purchase the tune and...

    Official R Delivered Thread

    Now that’s funny right there. I have never heard in my 30 years of purchasing cars, a person expecting to recoup their sales tax from the new purchase when they sell it used. I will wait for the snarky belittling comeback……

    What would you do? Low MPG on new to me Gen 2.

    I have had 3 F150’s and based on that 10 year history, it is all about You and where you drive. Highway 65 and over, you might as well be towing a trailer. Drive the same highway 35 miles each way for 6 months. I would set the cruise at 60, 65, 70 for that week and you are talking...

    Cam phaser Rattle got me

    I had the TSB software update performed in 2021 and was not notified that there was any newer software update. It was supposed to fix it but there are plenty who have said the issue still happened. There are many who have stated that there is an updated design of the cam phasers which...

    Cam phaser Rattle got me

    I went to the truck today and stared it up and there is was, the dreaded Cam Phaser Rattle. 49,999 miles on my 2019. I had the updates done at 19k, full synthetic every 5k-7k miles a good 20k of those miles were on the highway at distances over 50 miles at a time or multi state trips. I...

    RAPTOR F150 vs RAPTOR BRONCO

    Sorry 96k for a Ford Jeep is absolute insanity. Sad thing is with Fords obsession on high trim vehicles, it could be a long term detriment to the health of the company. Yes these specialty models are cool but if you won’t sell a entry level, people will not end up in the brand

    4A mode: Pulls way to hard to the right

    I am sensitive to the way a car acts under inputs. Just a product of driving on the track, you are hyper sensitive to feelings. I too feel a 4a tug when it engages during acceleration and slip. I do not drive in 4A in snow specifically because there were times you would be accelerating...

    Road trip with a family of 5 over 3500 miles and 12 days. How does the Raptor hold up?

    Completely aware of the boost in these motors. if I am below 70 then it can climb but 70 mark the box truck is in boost. Cruise on.

    Road trip with a family of 5 over 3500 miles and 12 days. How does the Raptor hold up?

    Yea i have Pilot Sport AS4's so we are not even talking tires that are even in the same ballpark. You are comparing KO2's and AT3 to KO2's so I completely understand why you responded that way. 1) The rides are 100% different in my mind. Just like BMW's vs Merc vs Range Rover Sport. They...

    Road trip with a family of 5 over 3500 miles and 12 days. How does the Raptor hold up?

    Yet guys are posting all the time on this forum that they are getting 20MPG on their raptors yet I have not seen anything higher than 17

    Road trip with a family of 5 over 3500 miles and 12 days. How does the Raptor hold up?

    I am going to disagree with this. I have a 2017 Range Rover sport supercharged with the 3rd row. I did a Chicago to Destin Fl trip. And I have done plenty of 1500 mile trips in the raptor. 1) I am not sure wha t you mean by ride quality. They are two different vehicles with completely...

    Looking at a used 2020 Raptor

    So I purchased a 2019 in 2021. FP Blue, Recaro interior(blue accent), 802A Lux, technology package, tonneau cover, tri rigid pods in bumper, 19k miles, PPF on hood, fender, mirrors, front tint to match rear, clean zero issue Carfax and Autocheck reports. I paid 63k so you can be the judge...

    Raptor Daily Driver?

    I guess a corvette is a special vehicle maybe a few very special models but is still a corvette. Wasn’t the C5 the corvette where the actual value and asking sale price was off by 10k, way over inflated. There were thousands of diaper rubbed, only driven in perfect conditions and no miles...

    Paint Oops

    I put PPF on the nose at my cars and trucks to prevent those front end chips.

    Was at my local dealer today. Lots of truck inventory

    I have to disagree on raptors not holding value. Over the past 10-15 years “performance” version of standard cars do hold value. ///M and AMG in clean non abused form fair much better than standard counterparts. I have owned many M3’s and that has always been the case

    Wet Passenger Floor, All possible issues explored.

    I have checked the coolant levels and have been smelling the the wetness. I have not seen the Coolant level change in a year and there is no sweet smell of Antifreeze.

    I did the AC condensate TSB fix(90degree elbo and foil tape)so this should have been eliminated
