Full-screen Carplay is the main thing. And (I am hoping) improved reliability with Carplay in general.

I have an August 2022 build gen3 Raptor. The truck has never received any OTA Sync updates and always reports it is up to date, despite being connected to WiFi, etc. I would like to get full screen Carplay and whatever else has been added/fixed in the past 18 months. I have called Ford's Sync...

Jump it?

Lightning Raptor, take my money! Are you listening Ford?

You should be able to just pull the entire wiper arm straight up and off the axle (there might be a tab to press or something to release it, I don't remember), and then put it back in the proper "rest" position (it is marked on the windshield).

FYI I had a 2019 Gen2 (with live valve) and my Gen3 is MUCH smoother on the street and handles bumps better.

Huh? Do you drill for oil and refine your own gasoline? You think the government can't stop you filling up your truck with gas if they wanted? At least an electric truck can be charged completely off-the-grid with solar panels.

Great choice! I researched all the retractable covers and reached the same conclusion. The American Roll Cover is the best. Very happy with mine.

I really dislike the folding storage compartment under the rear seats in my Gen 3. I have a lot of stuff I used to keep in the narrow compartment under the rear, driver's side passenger seatback in my Gen2. Rope, utility knife, gloves, flashlight, etc. This was super useful and the space was...

Makes sense to me, the take rate is probably close to zero.

Maybe the reason there is a $25k ADM is because some guys decided they had to order 3 trucks?

Sure, but you're missing the point. Whether the issue is that the fan is under-sized, under-utilized or whether the whole system is undersized - the cooling capacity is lower than it should be and the whole system feels weak, particularly given the large cabin volume. If we're lucky - the...

Anyone else find that the max fan speed on the HVAC system is just not that powerful? When I put the truck on max A/C - the air is pretty cold, but the velocity and volume is just not that high compared to other cars. It feels like the max fan setting is only 8/10 of what it should be. The...

The picture looks just like some ordinary spots of dried dirt after the truck gets rained on. If it's coming from both vents, there would have to be an obvious fluid leak spraying all over the engine bay. Since there's not...it's probably just dirt.

Yes, I’m mad, I have to drive several hours to get to any good off-roading and I was looking forward to Bluecruise. But … nothing to be done about it.

This is all worthless crap that your bottom-feeder dealer is pushing, nothing but extra profit for them, the companies will probably be bankrupt or refuse to pay if you ever make a claim.

“D button”?

The Gen3 suspension is what I’ve always wanted from a pickup truck. Been trying different models since 2010, including the Gen2, and never found one I liked. Didn’t want to sink a ton of money into crazy aftermarket setups either. That said, there is still a section of highway near my house...

Yeah, I have noticed that it will not activate the A/C if it is not hot outside. If the outside air is 65F or so - it won't really cool down the interior of the truck that well. If the outside air is 80F or above, something like that, the A/C works fine and is super cold.

Yes. The fan just doesn't blow that hard, or there is some issue with the balance. Disappointing. As I mentioned in my original post - my left dash vent is also weaker than the center ones, which is kind of annoying. If I have my hands on the steering wheel - my right hand gets colder than my...

Damn, sorry, I misunderstood! Not even missing the threads, but missing the block where the threads would be. That sucks.

Mine does that too. I made a post about it last fall. Seems to have gotten better with mileage. It is so minor I haven't been confident that a technician at the dealer would even acknowledge it.

My 2019 Gen2 did not have threads in the bed holes either. The bolts I got with the bed extender kit were self-tapping. Steel into soft aluminum, works fine, but probably you won't be able to remove them in a few years, hah. If you want to, you can buy a thread tap at any good hardware store...

It's fine with me as-is, though I wish there were some more useful screens we could put on the right.

How do I verify the grille shutters are opening?
