    F150 STOP SALE

    Is it just that single piece of heat shielding in the image above? Feel like you can tell if this is going to be an issue for you in 30 seconds.

    F

    3,000 miles here - averaging about 17MPG, a lot of its highway though. Use sport mode around town which im sure tanks the number a bit.

    2022 Tundra beats Raptor 37 Zero to 60

    I remember Roman getting invited to a press release for the C7 before the car was launched and he couldn't break a 5 second 0-60 in a car that was reported to do it in 3.8. Blamed it on external factors. I also recall him acting like the TRX was quicker than a new GT500 some poor soul let them...

    2022 Tundra beats Raptor 37 Zero to 60

    What?? Are you trying to tell me that the truck should be judged based on what it was designed for??? Are you out of your mind? All jokes aside - ridiculous how many ppl think the raptor was meant to fill the lightning's shoes. Whenever I see ppl drone on about acceleration on the truck it just...

    Ben Hardy...... Complaining....

    I remember seeing an AutoVlog video years ago where he put all the fake raptor stuff on his 150 to make it look like a raptor. You know, the FOOD/DOOD grill, fenders and all. The comment section was absolutely hilarious on that one.

    Ben Hardy...... Complaining....

    It's probably why he only has 130k or so subs. He's not exactly a big fish by youtube standards. He also made a video a little while back about how he was able to buy the raptor on the cheap. Cited making good trade in deals... In other news - water is wet.

    Raptor is terrible!

    Got any links to those reviews? Didn't know ppl already got their hands on 22s to review.

    My journey to Raptor R ownership

    Hey, I guess you're sort of right, except for that whole better payload, towing, approach angle, departure angle, ground clearance, weight, handling stuff....

    Carbon Fiber package no longer includes a carbon fiber shifter ... grrrr!

    Mark me down for also not being thrilled with the carbon fiber package. With that being said, I still prefer it to the interior without it on a 35 truck. The 37 interior seems just as nice. I am also a bit disappointed that the 35 interior's center console doesn't have the word Raptor...

    Gen 3 Apple Carplay

    I haven't updated my iphone yet to iOS 15 but I can say the system works really really well. Sound clarity, responsiveness - all have been top notch.

    Motor trend review

    Brand new suspension which is an improvement all the way around, "drives the same". Almost a half second quicker to 60 per their results, "drives the same". They should just name these articles - No V8 so the TRX is better, since that's all they seem to be able to effectively report on.

    Cowl Drainage Question

    So it rained heavily overnight on thanksgiving but I've also noticed this while washing the truck. Does anyone else's front-right cowl under the windshield wiper fail to drain? Water pools/collects in this spot for me and doesn't drain at all. Frankly, I don't even see how it would drain or see...

    Side by side

    For whatever reason photos of the Gen3 do not do it justice. I preferred the looks of the Gen2 till I saw my Gen3 in person. Haven't looked at a Gen2 since.

    GEN 3 --Anyone Else Not Crazy about their new truck?

    2000 miles on my truck so far - had the same carplay issue that you mentioned above once before. Had to re-select it from the phone selection screen and it allowed me to reconnect. When I first got the truck it was still warm out and I had the sunroof open and the phone on the charging pad. The...

    Gen 3 Raptor - Too perfect?

    I agree - what's so frustrating is the power wouldn't even need to change. The HO3.5 feels great to drive. Just ppl knowing there's a v8 would make them relax.

    GEN 3 --Anyone Else Not Crazy about their new truck?

    I've got absolutely no complaints about this truck other than not having phone controls on the steering wheel. I know that's nit picking but after having it on my 18 I can't help but wonder why they got rid of it for 21+

    C&D review

    Interesting review - first I've heard of anyone claiming the TRX is more composed than the Raptor. Also have to love dinging the raptor for fuel economy but praising the TRX on every other possible avenue. One thing is for certain, both of these trucks are amazing.

    Trading in my 21 35 for a 22 CO 37 package

    Nice Lumpy! That seems like a good deal considering the issues you've ran into - assuming you get to hang onto your truck till the 22 is delivered, hopefully?

    2021 CODE ORANGE RAPTOR 801a POSSIBLY FOR SALE

    Petition to have the mods move this thread to the sort of for sale, sort of an attorney section.

    Issues from Factory

    Knock on wood - short of a retainer clip being loose on a couple items the truck has been solid. The fit and finish is much better on this truck than my 2018. Go figure.

    Installed 37's on Gen3 35 Raptor - no issues.

    Got it. I chose the same bead locks like you so it's good to see everything fits so well.

    Installed 37's on Gen3 35 Raptor - no issues.

    I see most owners that are doing/considering this are also doing the 1.5" RPG collars. Serious question - How necessary is this step if you don't plan to do anything too crazy in the truck? Was planning on a few visits to Rausch and would rather not rip my fenders off if they're at risk.

    The Good news!

    It's 100% worth the wait... for those of you thinking about bailing, please do yourselves a favor and don't unless you absolutely have to. These trucks are awesome and will put a smile on your face every time you see them.
