    RAM 1500 TRX dead after MY2024

    Surprised, shocked, flabbergasted ... not. It's too bad Ford wasted the resources to "compete".

    Confirmed it on post #3. Can we all go home now?

    R Alternatives - What would you consider?

    True. But if you don't need/want the utility, there may be better choices.

    Downshift lowest available gear?

    I don't understand the question. If you're in manual mode and it won't downshift, it's to protect the engine.

    R Alternatives - What would you consider?

    Well, sorta. It's still close to 6,000 pounds. Fast in context. "for a truck"

    Reset Door Passcode

    Too good for them. Find a decent mechanic. I don’t let the dealer touch my truck unless it’s warranty, and then I hate doing it.

    Hands down winner. Although we have a new thread about tinting headlights ... could be close.

    R Alternatives - What would you consider?

    What do you want? If it's something fast on pavement, forget trucks.

    Is Ford still taking orders for 2023 Raptors?

    I’m sure you co find a dealer to take your order

    Suspension when hauling.

    Maximum towing capacity for most vehicles is pretty much the point where misery becomes life threatening. I figure useful towing capacity at half the spec for any vehicle not specifically designed for towing.

    2023 Ford Recaro Seats - what are they worth?

    Dunno about this. Guy from Detroit. Has seats from a "wrecked vehicle". One post. Off the radar for sale thread. Kinda makes me wonder if there's a Raptor in motor city missing it's seats.

    Sand or Rock Crawl mode shock settings

    When you do, let us know. I’m going too fast for 4L when I’m in sand mode. I will crawl some in sand mode if it’s short.

    Is this a thing?

    It’s the prosthetic version of Mary’s balls. I’m not sure what that says about your admirer’s opinion of you …..

    Hail Protection Cover Ideas

    If it doesn't fit, force it. If it breaks, it needed replacing anyway. :)

    What will 24 bring?

    They probably did go too far. There's the low-hanging fruit like the shift lever that won't be missed. There's a big opportunity on the dashboard where all of the buttons and knobs will become softkeys on a giant display. I hate that, but it's inevitable. The first generation of it will probably...

    Trans Harness

    I wanted to be triggered and searched the internet with the content filter off. Sadly, all I got were a bunch of wiring harnesses.

    Chalked my new BFGs

    32 front, 28 rear. Cold. As they heat up they’ll go a little high in the middle.

    Chalked my new BFGs

    No, no, no, it was a non-destructive test. What went flat was the tread onto the road. What wore off was the chalk. Which was not only cheap, but leftover from a project, so basically free.

    2023 Raptor R - AC Issue

    You might get more traction if you post in the R forum ....

    Chalked my new BFGs

    Just for fun. Brand new set of OEM C range. Cold, they ran flat at 32F/28R. Isn't that what they run at RA? I'm going to run here for a while and see how they do. The ride sure is plush.

    Thoughts on buying modified Raptor

    It's complicated. It was covered, but if the software reprogram wasn't done on time, it isn't covered, but I think there was a time limit on that? I'm not up to speed. If mine starts with that shit, it's getting traded in. Between the phasers and the crappy lift, I wouldn't bother pursuing it...

    Why Ford is King

    It's a halo vehicle. It's supposed to be stupid expensive.

    Ford Hires Former Apple VP to Oversee New Customer Experience Effort

    Yup. Apple is widely known to do this. And I know for a fact that Android does it. And ... the microphone in your phone, and in your car, is very sensitive. Don't assume that because the phone is in another room that it can't pick up every word you say. Call me paranoid, but is it really...

    Ford Hires Former Apple VP to Oversee New Customer Experience Effort

    Does anyone other than me think that this means your vehicle watches it's surroundings at all times and relays the information to the mothership? To "improve the customer experience", of course. :rolleyes:

    Don't hate me for asking

    One thing it won’t do is comfortably go 250 miles away from the nearest gas station and back again. That’s at the top of my priority list. I’d switch to a non-Raptor before I’d buy an R.
