    One and ONLY gas mileage thread please

    Getting about 15.9-16.2mpg on the highway at 70mph from Spring, TX down off the Beltway 8 (about 37 miles one way). With mixed driving I'm seeing around 14.5mpg. Truck only has 350 miles on it right now, too. Edit: Forgot to mention it's a SuperCrew and is 100% stock.

    New Vendor Here HELLO Y'all!

    Where is his shop? I'm also in Houston (obviously) and might be closer and could help out with fitment of certain parts also if he wants/needs somebody else.

    Stupid Things People Say About Raptors

    Went to CarMax to sell my old DD (used to have 3 cars, now down to 2 between the wife and I) and the guy asked why I just wanted to sell it. I told him I already bought a Raptor and he goes "Oh, those are sweet! How much did you pay...like $80?" I looked at him and said "Really? Think about...

    New Vendor Here HELLO Y'all!

    I also see you have a kit for ambient footwell lighting. I am very interested in this since the interior is so damn dark at night. Is there a way you could put a plug-n-play kit together for the Raptors?

    Terrain or Race Red

    Definitely subtle but unique if you're paying attention. Perfect combo if you ask me.

    Ambient Lighting Questions

    After driving the Raptor at night it's very apparent the interior is pitch black. While that's not necessarily a bad thing, I would like some sort of interior ambient lighting. My questions are does anybody know of any LEDs that are able to be dimmed? And also, does anybody know which LEDs will...

    New Houstonian Terrain Raptor

    Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited about it. Now I just have to save up for some mods...first one (after bedcover and tint) is going to be either a tune or wheels/tires/mid perch...haven't decided if I want better performance or looks yet first :Good or Bad:

    Raptor Dealers Selling Near Invoice

    Munday Ford in Bastrop, TX is selling below MSRP by about $2-4k. Talk with either Chris (sales manager) or Geoff (salesman) and tell them Jordan with the Terrain SCrew sent ya. I just picked mine up and couldn't be happier! They currently have a Tux Black SCrew and Blue Flame SCrew on the lot...

    New Houstonian Terrain Raptor

    I didn't get invoice, but I felt I got a good deal. I got about 1800 over invoice which I felt was about the best I was going to get unless I ordered one and waited.

    New Houstonian Terrain Raptor

    So this weekend I decided to try a few more dealers in the 150 mile range of Houston to see if anybody would deal. Most dealers here are all about getting 5-10k over MSRP and since their trucks had been sitting a while, I figured I'd try to get them to deal...to no avail. So I called up Munday...

    How Long Did It Take to Ship Your Raptor?

    I think they are saying 3-6 weeks as Standard Operating Procedure. They told me the same thing as well and my truck is going to Louisiana.

    Jesus Christ that's quick! Gives me hope that my truck might actually show up on Wednesday next week!

    Perch Mod Discussion

    In the traditional sense, yes. But there will always be a place for a car salesman who takes care of his customers and makes the entire process of dropping $50k on a vehicle as painless as possible. There is a reason I'm driving 300 miles to Baton Rouge from Houston to buy my Raptor. The finance...

    Front License Plate Bracket??

    Skene Design And you don't have to drill holes in the front of the bumper so if you ever do move somewhere that you don't need a front plate you won't have those ugly holes.

    Buying questions

    Depends on options, but somewhere in the 49-52k range for a well equipped Super Crew.

    The One and Only 2013 Order status thread

    Raptor Air Oil Catch Can

    If you have your truck idling, pop the hood and remove the oil dipstick cap and you can hear an audible change in the idle tone. There was a company that did something similar (draining catch-can back into the dipstick) and it causes nightmares when you went to tune it. You could always get it...

    It's Official!

    Pardon my ignorance, but why get rid of the sway bar? Does it have something to do with mid-perch?

    raptor dealers to avoid

    Pretty much any dealer in the Houston area. They all want MSRP + 5-10,000! The only one that will sell anywhere close to invoice or even at invoice is Ryan Ford, but you need to order. I'm purchasing from a dealer in Baton Rouge but I'm not sure if he is doing me a favor since I know the guy or...
