If I send my bank account information, would you be willing to make a direct withdrawal? So much easier that way and you seem trustworthy ...

You're all white ... ;)

That looks like a nice little hunting rig ...

You're not crazy. Ford can't build what you want in enough volume to satisfy the market. You should buy the competition if it's acceptable. Three years from now? Who knows. The blown V8 may be extinct. I fear for the Raptor itself. The reacceleration of the CAFE laws will not be kind to...

That's not bad ... I was expecting a cheap-ass lift or 20s ...

This. I have no trouble keeping up with all the cars around me without Sport Mode.

Good to know. I'll keep them in mind when it's time to go shopping.

That doesn't look like much of a rut ... the first one, anyway.

LOL She may be a fat pig, but she has a nice voice.

You can do that here in the winter. Summers, the highways are so clogged with RVs and trailers and flatlanders freaking out about being "in the mountains" that there's nowhere to go. You can either plod along and suffer or bust your ass passing. Passing might save a few minutes on a few hour...

Predicting is hard. Especially about the future. I could make an argument for under $100k and and equally compelling argument for over $200k. If I had to actually bet my own money, I'd bet that ADM for the R will still be firmly in place six months from now. But it's a guess.

He mentioned it in the OP. And @Old-Raptor-guy talked about it. It's the most likely variable. There are a lot of people who never learned to drive well. Some of us were lucky enough to drive rattling pieces of crap when we were young. You had to listen to the engine. You had to match speed...

Ah, insecurity raising it's ugly head.

My ex-neighbors wife drove one all the time.

Out here I get better mileage up in the mountains. Thin dry air doesn't provide much wind resistance. I once got 21 crossing the Rockies when traffic kept me down under 60mph. It's down at sea level with high humidity where my mileage drops.

Agreed. But maybe the previous owner ran a tune. Dunno. It's easy enough to check. Air filter same same. It might even be the original.

14 sounds really low. 17 is more like it. I'm with @Space Ghost. Air filter. Plugs. See if that fixes it.

In the old days Yota would introduce a new vehicle outside the US, get the early feedback, fix the big problems, and then "introduce" a relatively reliable vehicle with a three-year-old design. Then they'd run the same basic design for twenty years, which improved reliability at the cost of user...

Welcome and good job on dodging the moonroof bullet. A lot of us end up ordering our own so that we can avoid that thing. Yours was almost certainly a customer order. Dealers like to add it as it's a high profit margin option that pays dividends down the road in the service department.

LOL Get a room. :)

Kinda irrelevant. He's buying it for practical reasons.

That works too. The Raptor for me is just transportation. I like to go far off road and it takes me there in style.

The whole point of buying a Raptor for me was not needing to mod it ...

It sure is starting to sound like a bad batch of springs. Hopefully they can track that lot of springs by VIN....
