    New 2018

    Nice. Mine will be a very tight fit. My current F150 doesn't even leave enough room to walk around the truck with the garage door down. Good to hear you won't have similar challenges.

    New 2018

    How well does that hog fit in your garage? Looks like a tight squeeze.

    Opinions on potential purchase please

    I wouldn't touch that. Might be a good deal with a clean title, but without that price should be ~$28k.

    Advice on getting my first Raptor 2010 5.4L

    What's the price (not including your trade in) the dealer is asking? For literally the first Raptor to ever hit the roads, I'd hope it's not that much.

    2019 Raptor In Action Video

    Looks that way, though the video quality wasn't the best, so not a great judge of the color. Also, I wonder why the footage was reversed in a lot of the shots. (FORD backwards, driver on the "wrong" side of the vehicle)

    2019 Raptor Intel

    I disagree, they look almost exactly like the 2018 seats. If you check out Ford's site and view the interior, they're almost identical.

    2019 discount?

    Doesn't hurt to ask. I was in the same position, just bought a Platinum Explorer 10 months ago and have referred friends. I negotiated a bit and got my order for under MSRP. Wasn't wildly under, but was still enough to offset the cost of some of the accessories I plan to buy.

    2019 Raptor Intel

    Liquid Blue > Performance Blue > Velocity Blue But, in vehicles that I can afford: Performance Blue > Velocity Blue I'm digging the PB the more I see it, real happy with my decision. Those BLs definitely look like they shed a few lbs over the '17/'18 rims. Hopefully we'll get some stats...

    2018 Super Snake

    That Maxim link is just a post about the Paxpower V8 "Raptor". Though adding Raptor body parts to a stock F150 doesn't make it a Raptor. It's a cool truck, for sure.... But not a Raptor. Paxpower will be sued out of existence in a short amount of time anyway. They straight up admit they just...

    Dealer misleading discounts - how is this allowed?

    Dealerships commonly list every incentive that's available on their websites, when in practice only 1-2 will actually apply. You can call it shady, poor sales practices, dishonest, etc. But it's unfortunately common. Last time my wife and I bought a new Ford, one dealership claimed $6,100 off...

    2018 Super Snake

    Those same rumors have been around since Ford announced the Gen2 would carry a v6 only. Most of the v8 material is wishful thinking, clickbait, or a combination of the two.

    New Raptor Owner - Michigan

    I'm in South Lyon, taking delivery of mine hopefully before the end of the year. @misuracaf10, where are you? Would be cool to get a SE Michigan meetup going sometime.

    2019 Raptor Intel

    Sounds like we both did. ;-) I was set to go with white until I showed up at the dealership to place my order and they had two white Raptors sitting on the lot. I just didn't react to the white the way I thought I would, so I switched it up to the blue. Almost ordered VB based on how it...

    New Raptor Owner - Michigan

    Congrats! Awesome ride. Where in Michigan are you?

    2019 Raptor Intel

    Ah, I do like that liquid blue color though. I also ordered PB once I saw some color samples. The LB/VB is just too candy colored for me, and I liked that PB has a gray hue to it. I suppose I'll see it in person when the truck arrives, lol.

    2019 Raptor Intel

    The GT is Performance Blue, the Raptor looks like Velocity Blue. The Velocity Blue is a more direct replacement for Lightning Blue, whereas Performance Blue is a pre-existing color previously only used on the GT.

    That grill is horrible. I'd just put some work into your current Raptor.

    2019 Raptor Intel

    I doubt your sale rep will be able to do much; Once they submit the order they're mostly out of the picture. I would contact the dealership GM and see if he can get you an answer. Just conjecture, but my bet is Ford was flooded with '19 orders and randomly selected which to schedule. I'd say...

    2019 Raptor Intel

    I submitted mine on 9/13, got the DORA number on 9/17. I went through Hines Park Ford in Milford, so far they've been great. It's really all about allocation. Perhaps your dealer didn't have enough allocation slots to fit you in? Though I've had a good experience so far with HP, my wife and...

    2019 Raptor Intel

    I'm in SE Michigan, and have a build date of 11/05. When did you get your order submitted? Oh, and every dealer I've ever been to has said, "We're at top 50 nationwide Ford dealership". Turns out, car salesmen make inaccurate statements.

    2019 Raptor Intel

    Production 11/05. My order includes BL and CF (via color accent package) -- So far looks like no delays with BL and CF, though that could come once the production date nears.

    2020 Raptor headlight/grille refresh

    Lol, that's just an aftermarket grill meant to be mounted to an '18/'19 F150. But it says "Raptor" on the images, so I can see how it's believable.

    2017 Black SCREW 13K Miles?

    My brother bought a Raptor earlier this year out of a pretty similar situation. Was a dealer buyback, owner complained of excessive road noise among other things, dealer couldn't fix it, so Ford bought the truck back. They wanted $59k for it, he talked them down to $57k. But this truck only...
