    Premium Fuel

    While it's typical for any vehicle to have better fuel economy on highway vs driving around town I've noticed it in the raptor especially so when you switch from normal to sport mode. In my opinion, sport mode should be the way the vehicle drives all the time and normal mode should be for when...

    2022 gen 3 sluggish acceleration

    Agreed w. the above comment - if you're that low on mileage your dealer probably put 87 in it when they gave it to you which makes the world of a difference. Try again with 93 and see if it feels any better. Did you put 37s on your 17? Also an impact on the acceleration of these trucks. It's one...

    Moving on from my Raptor

    I can see the attraction - a powerboost platinum is a sweet ride!

    Is Full PPF Worth it?

    Full PPF is significantly more expensive than just doing the spots with the greatest likelihood of impact. Doing the front end, mirrors, a pillars, hood and fenders should run you about half that. I can't imagine a scenario where PPF would do anything for the back of the truck, but you're paying...

    Raptor R

    Thanks for taking up 9 slots for people who actually want a raptor just so you can turn a quick buck.

    Will Raptor prices come down with R released.

    Agreed - I don't see the R having any impact on the regular Gen3s either way. The price point + exclusivity makes the R fit in its own segment. A lot of people already thought the Gen 3 was expensive for what it is, now tack on 20k for the changes in model + 50k markups (guessing) and you're in...

    Exhaust rattle on cold start?

    Thank you for posting this video. I have the same exact rattle on mine as well.... seems to mainly be an issue in normal mode for me.

    35 VS. 37 = SUPPLY AND DEMAND.

    The 37 isn't a trim level or a model... it's an optional package offered on all raptors that have 801A....You don't call a stingray with the z51 package, "A Z51". A base raptor would be an 800A raptor.

    Bad Experience with Xpel installer @ Seattle Clear Bra

    Can you describe what your issues are or share some images? I had a certified Xpel dealer do the majority of my truck. I had to take it back once to have a bubble taken out but that's about it. Had it done last September with little to no issues.

    FIX: Door rattle B&O sound system

    Thank you for posting this! While this is totally something I can do myself I’m still needing the dealership to look at the exhaust rattle so I’ll ask them about this TSB at the same time.

    FIX: Door rattle B&O sound system

    Did you have any issues with your back window rattling? That’s where mine has issues… rattles like a banshee when it’s fully opened and less and less the more it’s closed.

    Gen 3 Graphics Discussions

    I apologize as I can't remember the name of the forum member who did this - but they had their entire truck stealth wrapped in xpel and then had the graphics applied afterwards and it looked unbelievable. Obviously that required them to get the decals afterward.

    Losing hope on my Raptor……

    I like Dodge products a lot too but its hard to respect them when their fan base is so desperate to validate the motor... like damn, we know it's quicker than a raptor but we just like raptors more... It's not like we can't afford a TRX if we can shell out what's being demanded for a raptor...

    Pricing on 2014 Roush SCREW

    Had you not said you were in the market for a Gen 2 I'd say this was worth pulling the trigger on all day long. At 56k you're within Gen2 territory which is the direction I'd personally go instead. You mentioned Sync3 so obviously technology plays a factor for you - which the Gen2 offers over...

    37 vs 35 Gen 3.

    Depending on what was the most appealing aspect of the 37 package to you would answer your question on this. If it were just coming down to the tires, I'd say for it wouldn't be worth it because that can be done afterwards. The unique interior on the 37 is really nice as are the wheels that come...

    Carbon Fiber interior w/ Xpel

    I can definitely see where you’re coming from. At the end of the day I think this is the kind of thing that people should decide when they’re in the shop getting the rest of the filming done. It just comes down to personal preference.

    Carbon Fiber interior w/ Xpel

    Correct, basically any surface on the front end was done, the FORD lettering, headlights, hood, a pillars, mirrors, lower bumper, fenders, rockers etc. They can’t do the grille for obvious reasons but practically every other part was filmed. He did clear Xpel on all painted surfaces and stealth...
