So true. Had my local dealership manager tell me it didn’t make good business sense for him to sell me the special ordered R they placed in my name. Bc he could make so much more money selling to someone else. They gave me 8 hours to get an offer on my 23 when I said I didn’t like their trade...
Welcome to the place. Happy to hear there’s another Raptor owner in the state.
What year, mileage, and nuisances are you experiencing?
There’s a wealth of knowledge on this forum that will likely help you to address many your issues without having to take it to the dealership/garage.
Resurrecting this thread. What have you guys been up to with your R? We worked on the basics over the past two weeks. First family RRRoad trip, these trucks are a dream to pack the family into and my kids hadn’t ever seen the Smokies. Fished a bit and enjoyed some walks. Got home and added...
I went to my local ziebart and paid $500 for the rhino extreme bed liner and $100 for corrosion prevention on the rear wheel wells. They said they would touch them up annually for me for $25 if they needed it. It’s not as pretty as rhino liner on the wells, but they didn’t want to spray the...
Was offered 113,500 for my 23R with 3,000 miles via a wholesale bid at my local dealer (I paid 121k for it in December). I didn’t like the 24 enough to justify the extra cost (they wanted my truck and 10k) and they weren’t willing to wait on me to sell it. Keeping the 23 unless some magic deal...
24 Order, but not Delivery
I placed an order with my local dealer in November of last year. New car manager said he didn’t think the order would get picked up. Said if it did get scheduled he’d call me to give me time to figure out my trade in. I went out and bought a 23 R in Michigan bc I...
Never messed with superchargers before. Had a TRX for 18 months and left it alone…not sure why but I’ve only had this R for 90 days and I’m contemplating this upgrade. Whats a ballpark for installation costs? Whipple site states a lot of guys install themselves…anybody contemplating going that...
Welcome to the forum.
Rappy > TRX.
Went rap to trx and back again. You’re right about the suspension being much better in the Raptor. I liked certain aspects of the TRX better, superficially the TRX interior was better, and I give a slight nod to the curvy TRX exterior but after 18 months...
I found their weight listed online at 26lbs…it’s a flow forged wheel…that seems to be the same as the 602 venomrex I’ve had and a just a hair less than my black rhino Rapids were.
Thanks so much for the extra pics. These look great. Thats one clean Rap!! Offset seems to be aggressive without being so far out you'd have to worry about throwing rocks all down the side of your ride.
Looks great!!! That bronze pops against the azure. Easily my favorite current wheel. Mind sharing a view down the side or head on so I can see the offset? Was thinking about a set in satin black.
My wife loves to drive the Raptors we’ve had. She opts to drive our current one 1-2 a week, when she’s been pregnant she just claims it as her daily…lol. There’s just not much out there more safe and fun to drive that’s not a low slung sports car (Not currently our style with three small...
I appreciate that. No worries. Everyone I call a friend is a smarta$$ and it only adds to our entertainment. Just gotta fire back every now and again.
I really only shared the number of dealerships I called to try and help some people understand the amount of searching that will have to be...
Dude posted asking about looking for an ADM under 15k. Was answering him directly. Way to be a prick though. It’s incredibly helpful.
I was thrilled to get what I placed an order for 15 months ago without all the issues of the earlier run. From what I’m hearing the 24 won’t be built...
I called a ton of dealerships looking. Refused to pay over 10k adm. 3rd week of December Serra Ford in Rochester agreed to sell me the exact spec I’d placed an order for in 2022. The next week I got phone calls from three other dealerships trying to make deals (they had all rejected my 10k...
