    My 2023 37 is here but…

    I don't know about everyone else but my heated steering wheel is the equivalent of an old man wheezing onto it for 30 seconds... you're not missing much lol

    Back In a Raptor After Too Long

    Dang I had no clue that was a thing! I wonder if they'll do an update for 21s and 22s? One can dream lol

    Raptor R vs TRX Drag Race

    Agreed on this - I don't understand why people put so much of an emphasis on 0-60 or acceleration for this truck when it clearly wasn't the focus during the design phase. If Ford wanted this thing to be about speed why would they offer 2 other F150 trims that accelerate more quickly (limited &...

    Raptor R vs TRX Drag Race

    If the R isn't the realistic truck for 9/10 current raptor owners, why should it have been what the Gen 3 raptor was, period?? Ford sells trucks that people want, not just what competes with the TRX... The Ecoboost fits the truck for the application, and its a package that fits the most use...

    Broken tie rods

    Rule #1 - when you see a Streetspeed717 video just skip over it. There is no Rule #2.

    2022 Raptor vs used TRX

    From what forum members have indicated you can already get a new TRX within the same ballpark as a loaded raptor with a bit of shopping. Personally I would not buy a used TRX for the same reason I wouldn't buy any used SRT/hellcat powered product. Those vehicles are purchased to go fast and most...

    Aftermarket HUD?

    It really bums me out that most mom-mobiles come with it now and the raptor doesn't.... It'll be offered on the new super duties, but not in the raptor??? I wish there were a really nice aftermarket option that worked without the use of film on the windshield.

    Loud Exhaust Rattle - Currently no fix from Ford

    Did they advise you on what they'll be doing to fix it? Other owners have had theirs replaced and it comes right back...

    Opinions on pricing please...

    I stand corrected! A quick search shows there are plenty around that price point with that mileage. The market seems to have shifted a lot in the past year...

    Opinions on pricing please...

    They'll make a killing off of the trade-in. When was the last time you saw a Gen 2 with less than 50k on the odometer sell for less than 65k?

    With the price of TRx, why are folks paying ADM for raptors?

    People don't perceive the motor to be enough of an improvement over everything else the Raptor has going for it so the demand isn't as great. Reviewers can say all they want about the powertrains - what matters is what people are actually buying.

    Ford Quality Job 1

    While my issue wasn’t this bad, after about 6 months of ownership a passenger of mine pointed out that my rear passenger door seemed off. 1 of the 2 bolts holding the door on became loose. I just made sure to realign and snugged it back up with a socket. Not the end of the world as others have...

    Well this is a new one... can't pass emissions

    Man am I relieved. This makes perfect sense.... the dealership did the 2021 inspection as they have the most up to date equipment. I couldn't figure out for the life of me why it'd pass the 1st year and read nothing on the 2nd. I love my mechanic and he is great but he's working out of a gas...

    Well this is a new one... can't pass emissions

    Sorry - I should clarify. Truck is 100% stock, I bought it brand new in September 2021 and state is PA. Also, the mechanic reset their machine and tested it on other cars so I know it's not the machine.

    Well this is a new one... can't pass emissions

    Hey FRF, First time I've heard of this. My mechanic who has been doing my inspections for the past decade says my 2021 won't communicate with the emissions machine and he won't be able to pass it for state inspection. Said everything scans fine otherwise so it's not the OBD2.... Dealership...

    Powder Coated Wheels

    Hey FRF, I have a strange obsession with gloss black painted wheels and I don't know why. Has anyone successfully powder coated their factory bead locks for the 35 package and if so, would they mind sharing a picture? I've seen the stock wheels powder coated gloss black and I think they look...

    GT500 dead - Predator production line dedicated solely to Raptor R?

    I hope not - that show was the cringiest crap I've seen in years.

    I realized I could have been more helpful and actually sent RL pictures like you mentioned you were looking for above. Last pic is a shot of the back of the spare on the hanger

    2023 Blue Interior - Swapping Wheels

    I wasn't in love with them when I ordered them on mine but I liked them a lot more than the standard factory wheels. I can tell you they look much better in person so try and get a look at them before you spend any extra $$$ on aftermarkets.

    Rusell and smith ford Houston Tx

    Agreed with the posts above - don't let the 3k deter you since you've waited this long. I'd buy the truck and leave them an honest bashing in their reviews about the last minute add-on and their threat to sell it to somebody else for 10k over after reneging on your deal.

    Gen 3 order round two.

    Best of luck! It's well worth the wait, the truck is fantastic.
