    Trade a Raptor for a Lightning?

    Not really, although hybrids will be first. Ever wonder why you all can't get a hold of the Gen3s like you did the gen2s? It is not the global supply chain. American companies and their foreign counterparts are making break through battery technology products in this country. All R&D for new...

    Trade a Raptor for a Lightning?

    Most everyone say 90 percent of ev owners charge level 2 at home and overnight, this is optimal charging off peak hours. So little effect on the power grids. The registration fees is where governors in most states are trying to stick it to ev owners. There are lobbying groups trying to get those...

    Trade a Raptor for a Lightning?

    Kind of like how all the gen2 owners dumped their trucks right after Biden occupied the white house. The resell market was high and as they knew gas was going through the roof. Most raptors are selling for msrp or 107k for that much I'll wait for hummer then sell once I get a delivery date. It...

    Trade a Raptor for a Lightning?

    probably the battery tech isnt there yet but it is improving. I have a Hummer EV reserved but am not holding my breath to get it. We tend to keep vehicles for a long time in general. So, depending on the vehicle and range your experience will vary. I will say that the Tesla ride is general good...

    Collectors Truck

    I am not trying to be that Gen 1 homer, but the Gen 2 sounds like a pissed off bumblebee. I loved the throaty sound of the 6.2 liter Gen 1 but it is a dinosaur compared to the Gen 2 and much so compared to the Gen 3. The technology has improved so much. Low mileage examples of Gen 1s and Gen 2s...

    Premium Fuel

    I only get let out on the weekends and I have a card for the weed.

    Ford's Jim Farley is probably upsetting dealers, it's about time and I'm ok with that

    It is all these crypto and NFT millionaires that are making things screwed up.

    Premium Fuel

    Guess Trig and Math is also smoke worthy, carry on. If you are worried about gas mileage in any Raptor and I have owned 2 of them then you should sell immediately. Maybe I should have said aspect ration the larger that ratio is on a larger tire the MPGs go down and the ODO speeds up.

    Premium Fuel

    Uh yeah, don't think that is what he was talking about. More than likely he was referring to the nearly 2 inches more diameter which will reduce gas mileage and increase the ODO reading faster than the smaller radius 35 inchers even though they are roughly 35.5 inches or so. Put some 40s on...

    Premium Fuel

    I only run premium. You can however run mid to low grade fuel in the Raptor and put premium in once every 3-4 tanks and then run the **** out of it to blow the carbon out. I run premium just because it is what it calls for and we always have 93 available.

    The long term impact of ADM

    The only truck I paying that kind of money for doesn't burn gasoline. I could not imagine having an ADM of any kind. The times we live in but with the hybrid Tacoma coming out and other options. Just too many options on the market to give Ford that kind of money. I do believe Ford doesn't want...

    The long term impact of ADM

    Whatever, so what if money isn't the issue but you just don't want to pay these inflated BS prices? Ford and most dealers will go direct to consumer, the dealers know this and the car makers know this. The sooner they make it happen the better off we are.

    The long term impact of ADM

    yep and GM is going through the same thing, they are now canceling warranties for people who sell the Hummer within one year. Kind of scary.

    Opinions please… 19 for 23?

    True I drove a custom spider F150 with the 5 liter and it was pathetic. The Raptor needs that top end boost of some sort.

    The long term impact of ADM

    10k profit, try the people who were on the front end of the Hummer 1 EV purchased them for MSRP and sold them for 100-150k more than they paid. Now that is what I call capitalism. Plus what this guy above me said, if you aren't going to miss the 25-50k you are losing then all power to you. I...

    Rolled my 3 day old truck

    Naw, 80 percent of the insurance companies these days would be trying to figure out how to fix that. LOL

    Rolled my 3 day old truck

    Then you are not taking bodily injury into the consideration. For if you have BI then you can combine the outstanding property damage into one big ball for them. Depends on the laws of the state but the insurance company I am with now does indeed go after the Under/Un insured drivers to collect...

    Rolled my 3 day old truck

    True I did not take fault into consideration. I do know that insurance companies work with body shops meaning that they could have a 70k ticket like you said and the insurance pays them out in portions at discounted rates. Like lets say they negotiate it down to 55k via parts and labor. That...

    This is interesting, so Collision wouldn't cover it either? Some states have in acted laws to combat unscrouplous insurance companies.

    Suspension Clunk? Seeking Objective Data

    My Gen 1 did it no matter what even with rebuilt Fox shocks my Gen 2 has not ever done it. Not sure could be certain models.

    Rolled my 3 day old truck

    Uh yeah, I had an F150 that the insurance company wouldn't total and put 32k worth of invoices into a 40k truck. So, I know they do it especially since the F150 is a box on frame meaning that if the truck doesn't line up correctly the cheap bastards want you to take it. LOL, then they wonder...

    Unless they find more damage than structural it will not be totaled. If I was the OP I would be asking them to do it though.
