I could be wrong about the green sticker. Just saw this post and his Raptor has that: https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/finally-part-of-the-crew.95103/

I find this quite odd. The Raptor I saw, the undercarriage was VERY dirty and covered in mud. The windshield had two stickers (not from ford), a green oval one, passenger lower right side and an oval "ford" one over the rain sensor. No atypical new car window sticker from Ford. Me thinks I need...

While driving by yesterday I noticed my dealer has a used Gen3 black Raptor sitting out front for sale. I don't know any of the particulars but she is pretty. Things I did notice. No tailgate applique, 35 inch with rim locks. Other than that, call 'em if your looking for one. It's called Legacy...

For thought. One want's all the ground clearance you can practically get but also a low center of gravity. They tend to offset each other.

You could always move...just a bit. Central Nevada is nice. I don't know whether Arizona, Nevada or Utah has a better political environment but all three are better than these libtards running Oregon into the sewer. The western side of the state has a pretty big movement going on to become part...

That looks warm and dry....pretty appealing from where I sit looking out my window.

Personally, I would restore your backups. No telling if your truck is in sync with Ford or not. I received an "over the air" update last week so new backups on my Raptor are needed. Only time I would go to Ford's AsBuilt is if my backups were corrupt. ....said from someone who spent the...

Amazing machines but they break in normal use far more often that the automobiles we drive. One time ten M60's parked in a row for a training lecture, the M60 to my right just decided to loose a torque rod with a loud boom just sitting there, power off. That crew was not happy! We all knew what...

Look at the pin this way. Properly installed, in order to fail, the forces on it must cut it in two places (shear) vs a rope looped around it that must only bend it. At best, it bends and then you pay hell getting it out, at worst you spaghetti suck it out of the holes.

This was me in 1986 learning how to get "things" unstuck. Not shown, one was up to the main gun in Kentucky mud. Glad I was not on the "dig" crew for that one. I got the clean end, the pull now end!. To right one of these 60 ton beasts takes three other tanks and lots of coordination.

Something of note: The receiver on the vehicle has a rating as well. Just because your "Factor 55" hitch link is strong enough, is your receiver? Second, the way in which you couple your soft shackle to your Bubba rope can be a weak point as well. While a soft shackle may have a rating high...

Having not used a kinetic rope. Common sense says it would behave like a rubber band and have serious rebound or snap back. Much worse than a nylon strap or chain. I can completely understand the huge advantage of using one in a recovery. But at the expense of safety? Do they have serious...

What reading pointed to that I think would really help. Some sort of damping on the tow strap/rope/cable. A chain over the center would slow it down but may not be the best choice. Logic also says two dampers, one at each third of the strap so it could not double back on it's self. I also have...

This went through our local media a few months ago. What started as a routine recovery ended badly. The long offset hitch was a major contributor to this tragedy. Learning from the mistakes of others may save your life some day. from Road & Track

While on a road bike "walk-a-bout" a bunch of years back (early 90's), heading to Sinclair, Wy over what my map said was a "state route" that started as pavement, then gravel, then three ruts up on a plateau in the middle of nowhere. I was riding on the shoulder rather than one of the ruts with...

Well duh! That's because your not spinning 'em fast enough to throw out the mud! :33: (lol! no, don't try that unless your a valley girl)

That stuff was surplus right? Just don't loose it faster than you can make it. I swear! Dem doctors! Too many of them create more problems than they fix and no rating system to see who is a hack and who is a healer.

Shoulda gunned her! ....or as they say today, sent it. :burnout: was my first thought from the first photo. What a gooey mess!

That looks like some kinda sticky prewash! Are you happy with the performance and who makes/what is it?

Mother natures pinstripes.....ugh!

beautiful, rugged country! ....those clouds look angry and cold! ...lucky here, today we have sunshine. Still only 30' out but pretty.

I have been very happy with my Peragon. Still no leaks, my bed stays dry as a bone and since the tailgate does not slide under but presses up to it, no issues with that seal either and it does not interfere with auto tailgate closure.

Finally found the track file for the Utah/Idaho trip we made. Enjoy! ps we broke in the tail gate at Coal bank springs.

Yes, If I can find it! (I have too many accounts!) I checked my phone....not it so I will check my tablet when I get home.
