    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    Spent about 2.5 hours deep cleaning my interior. Cleaned all the seat covers with chemical guys leather cleaner and a horsehair brush. Then applied a coat of leather conditioner, let it soak in, and then hit it with a light second coat. I love the way that stuff smells.

    How many miles came on your new Raptor?

    110ish. My 19 been siting on the lot for almost a year when I bought it in June 2020.

    What is the OEM LED Headlight Lifespan?

    I may be accustomed to outdated vehicles, but I think the headlight output from my 2019 is awesome.

    Thinking of changing color on my order from OW to CO

    I drive a race red Gen 2 and if I was getting a Gen 3, I'd want it to be code orange. I initially wavered on whether I wanted a "loud" color like race red. In the end, I decided it was just me being insecure and I needed to go for it. I liked the bright, vibrant red color, and if that was too...

    My gen3 vs trx comparison

    I'm hoping there's a good reason Ford doesn't do the full drop-down rear glass like the Tundra and 4Runner. Once you've become accustomed to that feature, it boggles your mind how a manufacturer could choose a different design. Maybe it's prone to breaking the glass on tough offroad terrain if...

    My gen3 vs trx comparison

    We have owned a Lexus GX470 for about 5 years. We have really enjoyed its capability and style for the price. It has been super reliable and has almost 180k miles on it. Before my Raptor I had a V8 4Runner. I love the Toyota 4.6 in a mid-size vehicle like the T4R and GX470. My DD is my 19...

    My gen3 vs trx comparison

    For a $80k+ luxury truck, I am completely over gas mileage. Range I care about. But if I wanted mileage I'd get something responsible that's not named after a dinosaur.

    What do you use to prevent light theft?

    The risk of light theft is negligible enough that I don't worry about it. If it happens (it won't) then I'll file an insurance claim under my comprehensive coverage. Don't weld together an assembly to prevent a problem that will likely never happen.

    My gen3 vs trx comparison

    Thanks for the detailed, experienced-based comparison. It's sad that these threads are always derailed by people shouting FIAT this and WANNABE that. I just like cool trucks. I don't know why the brand of truck they own is like a religion to some people.

    Can you please show us a picture of the stance with the Eibach's up front and Deaver+4s in the back?

    May have to unload my 2021 Gen 3 37 Raptor

    Agree--if all other things are equal. Not everyone is comfortable with Forscan. And some may like the styling of one over the other. If OP intends to go rock-crawling, then yeah, get Badlands. If not, then get whichever sasquatch-equipped Bronco suits your fancy.

    Raptor Assault Registration now open

    Not really. Any place in SLC proper is going to have plenty of restaurant options nearby within 5-10 minutes. And there are hiking options to the east near the mountains. The architecture in SLC is really something to see. You could even go as far north as Ogden without it being a terrible...

    May have to unload my 2021 Gen 3 37 Raptor

    IMO, if you want a Bronco, there's little reason to go First Edition other than the collectibility. You're gonna pay out the ass for one if you do. IMO, better to go for a Badlands or a Wildtrak (depending on whether you want Rock Crawl or Sport mode as your unique GOAT mode). You'll still have...

    Make sure to budget at least $60 to spend on merch in their store in the lobby :)

    Fair enough. I guess I really meant "somewhere in civilization near SLC"

    Raptor Assault Registration now open

    Nah, it's not that bad. I just drove back to SLC for dinner on the evening after the course. There are *some* things in Tooele, and you'll have several food options in the part of Tooele that's near the course. It's not a tiny, tiny town. But if I'm traveling I'd rather spend my one evening out...

    If I ever go again, I'll do the same. I'll take the 30ish minute commute out to Tooele over the utter nothingness and boredom of staying in Tooele.

    Dead Gen 2 35k Miles

    Maybe on a 2JZ or other sequential twin turbo system, but certainly not a Raptor.

    Implications of not fixing Cam phasors?

    For what it's worth, I had these same fears. I decided to get mine fixed. I set up a loaner with the dealership a month in advance, and from the day I dropped it off to every interaction with the service advisor I keep repeating, "I am not in a hurry. But I am very concerned that this gets done...

    Did ford fix anything for the Gen 3 with Cham Phasers

    I disabled auto start/stop on my 19 at 1000 miles and my truck still developed the phaser problem between 18,000-23,000 miles.

    Trim height with Eibachs, Deavers (+1), 37” K02

    Love your setup. I'm considering the same. I like the stock beadlock wheels. To ensure I'm clear, when you say Deaver (+1) do you mean Deavers that add 1 additional inch of ride height? It's my impression that Deaver +2s give the same ride height because you remove the stock 2" blocks for...

    Bought 18 Raptor w/ Tune

    I am not a lawyer, but there's got to be some recourse here for a dealer selling you a vehicle with a condition that they knew about, and didn't disclose, and that issue now prevents you from having recall work done--at the very same dealer!

    Bronco Raptor

    We are in the boat of having an early Bronco reservation/order that is still not scheduled and does not have a VIN. We got the email asking if we are interested in converting our order to a Bronco Raptor, and we signed up. Will see where this road takes us. Best case scenario, might get to own a...
