On my 2014 every bolt I’ve turned has been metric. I think Ford has been metric on most vehicles for awhile. Mark

This has lived under the back seat of my last three trucks.

Trim Shine by Stoner works great to make them dark again. Mark

I know on a 2014 you need two keys in order to program a third key using the instructions above. I made two more copies for my truck using the above instructions after having my local Ford parts department cut the keys. They cut using the VIN and there was no charge. The only catch is if they...

I use Ford Quick Lane here in San Antonio for all oil changes on my wife’s Shelby GT and for my Raptor when it is time for a tire rotation. Northside opened a Quick Lane not attached to a dealership which is indeed quick plus they are always sending out offers for the Works for $22 bucks which...

Did the tow truck driver try to jump your truck with a jump box? My battery on my Shelby was dead from a drain on the battery and it would not jump from my genus GB150 until I connected a set of jumper cables to the old battery I swapped out of my Raptor. Mark

I have had the Odyssey for three years with no issues. Direct swap for the original battery. More weight means more lead which means more reserve capacity. I would purchase again. Mark

Ruby Red is another color that changes depending on being sunny or overcast. I like mine best when clean in bright sun. Lead foot with black strips is my first choice if I ever bite the bullet on a GT350. Mark

I’ll second the Tracwrap 405 recommended. It work great for me when I took the Shelby on a long road trip that included some triple digit runs. Mark

No experience with the Mishomoto for the raptor but put one in my wife’s Mustang Cobra years age and ended up swapping it twice for leaks. They were great doing the warranty only requiring pictures of the leak and no return of the defective. Mark

I have had good luck with Chevron Techron but really seem to notice and improvement with BG 44K. I always add a bottle if I go on a trip that will burn through a tank of gas. Mark

Ever since financing my first truck I have continued to make my truck payment to me after payoff. My 2002 Ford F-250 CC was paid off in 2005 but I kept putting the payment amount in a money market account. In 2011 I started looking at Raptors after seeing a molten orange one at the rodeo...

I went with the Corsa Extreme on my 2014 and couldn’t be happier. It has been three years since installed and still looks and sounds great. It is more expensive than other choices but they have decent sales throughout the year. Mark

I still have the original wipers on my 2014 that still work great. My truck does sleep in the garage and only has 25000 miles. I ordered some Motorcraft replacements off of Rock Auto but they do not match the originals. I have had good luck with the Michelin wipers at Costco on the wife’s car...

I’ve had a couple of flat repairs on my 2014 with factory headlocks done at Discount Tire and they have never removed the rings. When I mentioned it the first time he mentioned their machine does not touch the rim. I have used them for the Shelby GT500KR rims I put on my Shelby GT/SC because I...

The key doesn’t have to be in the truck for the radio to work. Whenever I take the wife’s car to the dealership for an oil change I just pick one of the new trucks that has a good view of the quick lane and sit in an listen to the radio. Discovered this a couple of years ago. Mark

Mine fits no problem parked next to my Shelby. There is no getting in the passenger door while in the garage. I did have to shorten my antenna because I got tired of it hitting. Mark

Second recommendation for the one from Nushield. I have had one for five years and does a great job of hiding fingerprints and is glare free. Mark

$2.03 for Shell 93 premium on Tuesday. Mark

I purchased my 2014 from Jordan Ford in July of 2014 and all their vehicles are menu priced and the sticker on mine was $3500 under MSRP. At the time I was talking to Northside Ford and they were still asking $5000 over. Mark

The two times I let the dealer change my oil they neglected to wipe down the tray under the oil filter that directs the oil through the hole in the skid plate so the next morning I had a quarter size drip of oil on the garage floor after it worked it’s way down the skid plate. mark

After washing mine I spray them with Stoner Trim Shine and it makes them nice and black without making them slippery. mark

Awesome upgrade. I have the same on my 2014 and can’t believe I waited two years before pulling the trigger on it. I also got the black tips. Mark

Great minds think alike. My Raptor is the perfect companion to my Shelby GT/SC. Mark

I put a K&N drop in in my 2014 at around 3000 miles but didn’t notice any difference. I swapped back to the factory filter for a trip to the beach so the K&N wouldn’t get full of sand and never switched back to the K&N. Your going to love the Cora’s Extreme exhaust. Mark
