    IWE line check - still troubleshooting.

    I installed the delete in June 2020 and have had zero issues so far. MPG may have dipped .5-1 if at all. Not much off-roading, but lots of highway miles and lots of getting after it hard in the snow when we get it here. Installed around 100k mi, now at 131k mi.

    PTSD and me

    Firefighter here; having some tough times lately too. Called my Employee Assistance Program for someone to talk to about it. It was Saturday, the message said call back. What if that was the moment I just couldn’t take it anymore? Now I have sixteen people calling me trying to schedule calls...

    GEN 1 Gen 1 Restoration Project / Cost Estimate help needed

    Have to agree. Love my Gen 1, but if it got wrecked and I could move to the aluminum body I would only for the rust factor. Living in IL sucks, my cab corners are rusted through already, probably because it came to me from SD and MO as well, but still, it hurts. Put 5k into new...

    Used Car Dealerships

    I bought my Gen 1 from a smaller used auto group. It was a hassle, but I love the truck. They don’t know ***** about Raptors though. Needed $5k put into it right off the bat. No gas in it, needed new brakes, tires, unknown if shock rebuilds were done, and they hemmed and hawed to meet in the...

    Will my 2017 SuperCrew Raptor fit in a 6’8” parking garage?

    Never trust the signs. I worked in a hotel with a parking garage that was notorious for the signs being inaccurate. When they would lay over the driving surfaces for repairs and/or the ceiling concrete that was spalling over the decades they never re-measured and re-posted the new height. We...

    slight jerking/shaking at idle

    I have had this same issue. Plugs and wires have been changed. Haven’t done coil packs yet. No known codes. Seems as though the Gen 1 wants to run hot and fast. I don’t seem to have this issue if I lay on the throttle. It only occurs when I am idling through parking lots or beginning the day...

    GEN 1 RPMs stick at 1500 when coasting at low speeds.

    I have found this issue as well. 2014 all stock. She just needs more juice. If I idle/coast it feels like it’s hanging up. More gas solves the problem it seems. Let her eat!

    5.4L vs 6.2L Gen1 Pros/Cons + Pricing in 2021

    It was asked so I figured I’d post it here. Just what I’ve learned along the way… Absolutes are (in my opinion): Don’t get a 5.4L - 6.2L all day! Aim for a 2013/2014 Aim for stock - mods are cool but could imply things went wrong and got changed. See it in person Know history; how many...

    GEN 1 GEN2 Rear Shocks on GEN1 worth it?

    I randomly found a deal on some live valves with the delete kit already on them so I went for it. It doesn’t seems too firm in my opinion. I actually thought it was super floaty feeling compared to the stock, but those were blown anyway, so hard to tell.
