    Do I need to add air to my tires to make this go away?

    When it gets this cold and the truck sits outside I always check the pressure when cold to see how much air I need to add. It’s always good to check the spare too if you don’t rotate it out with the rest of the tires to make sure it’s good. No one likes to be stranded and the spare is low too.

    Gen3 MSRP and Dealer Markup policy worksheet

    so are you telling me that every dealer is marking Gen 3’s up? That’s hard to believe since there are guys getting them for MSRP. Not all dealers in the area are hitting on Auto Trader. I didn’t take them time to search or call the other dealers in the city that would definitely mark up Raptors...

    Gen3 MSRP and Dealer Markup policy worksheet

    From just doing a little bit of research around me with a 100 mile radius, the dealers that have '21 Raptors on Autotrader for the most part are at MSRP. The only one that I have seen as of this morning that was marked up was a Holzhauer Ford in Nashville, IL. They are asking $98,915 for it...

    Random Question/Opinion Requested

    The Raptor will be better in the long run. Its a truck for one, and historically Raptors have retained there value decently. The other part is inflation has the whole market messed up. If things settle down again, you will see the prices start to get back to where they should be for the used...

    Hard shifting

    I’m sure I’ve read some posts about this issue in another section of the forum. Maybe try checking in the drivetrain section.

    Inventory popping

    Unless the ads have a picture of the truck on that dealers lot, I would use caution.

    Alright, talk me into it…

    At this point in time, the value for trading in most vehicles is still higher than normal due to inflation. That may work in your favor to get you into a Gen 3. This won‘t last. However if you like your Gen 2 and don’t mind rebuilding the shocks and then keep your truck.

    Keep It Dirty Off-Road has better content than Ben.

    Ben Hardy...... Complaining....

    I like watching Raptor content on YouTube, but I try to not click on Ben's videos because of the click bait stuff and he really doesn't offer any real world content on useful stuff with any of his trucks or car reviews. I will give him a little credit on trying though. I will admit that I have...

    raptor vs. new tundra trd pro

    This is like the Silverado ZR2. Its not a Raptor competitor (Even though GM thinks and market's as such) Its on the same level as the TRD Pro and Tremor. The Tremor to me is the better truck over the former 2 trucks I mentioned above. GM still doesn't offer an extended range fuel tank. That has...

    Ready to Give-UP :(

    I know its difficult but if you are willing to look somewhere else do. There are other dealers out there that can help you out with what you are looking for. I think Laura Ford in Sullivan, MO has some that's slated to arrive some time soon.

    Ben Hardy...... Complaining....

    Im sure folks here know about the YouTuber Ben Hardy. He just put out a video about 5 things he dislikes about his Gen 3 Raptor. To me it seems like he is whining and not greatful that he is able to own a Gen 3. Not that I want to give his channel any views, Im just curious to know if he is just...

    Why would you not buy a gen 3?

    For myself, the market swing in pricing is what has kept me from buying a Gen 2 and a Gen 3. (My wife is a big factor in that) I ended up buying a 2021 GMC Canyon 4x4 for now. Its no Raptor, but its at least a truck and is working out for me right now. I still want the interior space, better...

    Got tail lights tinted....

    I like it. I bet a black or Leadfoot truck with this mod would look killer!

    Careful what you wish for

    He needs to learn how to drive. I would think a clay bar would fix the sticker glue issue. His video was for sure click bait.

    Crazy ass dealer

    Im really wanting to know what's going to happen to all of these used Gen 2's that are sitting on the lots of some of these dealers that are sitting at sticker or more? Auto Trader says there are about 90 with in 100 Miles of STL right now... I know that's not the case just by looking at some of...

    KIDOR Lemon Law Denied and Suspension Warranty Cancelled

    My opinion is his truck is not worth no $70,000. $55,000 or less is more like it. The market is still so crazy on Raptors. He is getting out at the right time for his advantage. This time last year, Used Raptors were not selling at the prices they are today.

    You Aren't Special

    USPS can’t seem to deliver some packages to my office. They hold them at the post office for what ever reason unknown to me. I just had to have the mail room at my building go and see if it was being held there or not. The tracking app said it was delivered to the mailroom or receptionist. I...

    KIDOR Lemon Law Denied and Suspension Warranty Cancelled

    From the way he was talking in this current video it sounds like he is suing Ford. Since he did return the truck back to stock, did he really mess it up that much and even back in stock form it’s still ruined? And why would he not want to get a Gen 3 with 37’s since that’s what he was wanting...

    TFL Finds 2021 Ford Raptor Horsepower and Torque Numbers?

    Does Raptor really need a jump mode? I’m gonna say no.
