    Raptor is about to get Decked.

    Yea, not sleeping alone. Got my beautiful bride with me.. :) Currently shopping around for a Rooftop tent and bed rack (hopefully half height). I came soooo close to getting an iKamper X-Cover but someone beat me to it. If I get a RTT, I’ll keep the Decked.

    Raptor is about to get Decked.

    I'm at the point now that I'm debating whether or not to keep the Decked system. Keep in mind, I'm not complaining about the system itself but whether it fits my specific needs. IMO it has performed flawlessly. I've been through multiple rainstorms and none of my gear has gotten wet. The biggest...

    2021 New Ford F150 Reveal

    It looks the same because it's really a mid cycle refresh, not a redesign. But Ford really went all out on the refresh IMO. The interior is excellent. There are a lot of new innovations in there. The Hybrid is genuinely desirable. Especially so with those power options in the bed. I even love...

    Be careful out there.

    As you know, I’ve got a jacked up Wrangler sport as well. It’s simply a better crawler for many reasons. I just don’t like it much for on road driving. The steering sucks BAD. My wife currently pimps the Wrangler as her daily. She’s waiting for the Bronco to come out before deciding whether or...

    Be careful out there.

    The whole thing is making me rethink on getting a winch. I might at least get one to mount on the rear tow hitch. I hate to drop 4K on a proper front setup but I may end up doing that. The scariest moment is when the passenger (elderly lady) opened her door. That was at least a 50' drop...

    Be careful out there.

    We hit Argentine Pass in Georgetown, CO last weekend. On the way out, it started raining pretty good and the dirt got loose near the drop offs. A CJ in front of us went off the road when the edge gave loose. He ran into, and knocked over, an Aspen. The driver and passenger were in their 70s and...

    Raptor Mustang

    Exactly my thinking. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea but with proper execution is would be a pretty kick ass rig. The only real downside is that lack of 4WD. So tires are going to be super important. My condolences on the passing of your Dad. Maybe keep the Stang, modded or not, as...

    TRX throwing shade at the Raptor

    I speculate we’ll end up with two Raptors. A plain jane Raptor with a ecoboost hybrid like the one in the Lincoln Aviator (which makes 500hp) and then MAYBE a Raptor R with the Mustang GT500’s V8. That’ll let Ford keep the Raptor’s starting price at the mid $50K range while a Raptor R can go...

    Overlanding and Offroading Across the Country

    VERY NICE. I may pick your brain on this later. I'm building my Raptor for overlanding in Colorado.

    School me on the badlands winch

    If you're on a budget, go with Smittybilt's XRC Gen3. I've got the Gen2 and it's been flawless on my Wrangler. Just make sure you protect the control head. The rubber cover on the switch yellows and falls apart with too much sun so you always want to keep the winch covered when not in use. When...

    wierd Carplay volume issue

    Waze 4.62.2 was released yesterday. Anyone try it yet? I haven't had a chance to do so yet. EDIT: Waze's Reddit page says that this version does fix the CarPlay volume issue.

    GEN 2 Show me your satin or matte Raptor

    If I ever get tired of Velocity Blue, something like this or a pearlescent blue will be my choice of wraps.

    I was looking through Reddit and Twitter and found that Waze has acknowledged they caused the issue and are working on a fix.

    wierd Carplay volume issue

    yea, I tried a hard reboot of my phone yesterday but the problem persists. The problem is also occurring during other radio functions like listening to SirriusXM. It only stops when I unplug the phone. I also tried calling up Siri from my steering wheel. That didn’t seem to work either but...

    wierd Carplay volume issue

    The latest, 13.4.1 So I posted this on Facebook as well. The consensus there is Waze as well. One fella may have figured it out. Waze has a feature in Settings called "Audio Player". Go Disable it. It appears to be a new feature and it is enabled by default. I haven't tested this yet but will...

    wierd Carplay volume issue

    Hey fellas, I did a search and didn't see anyone else having this issue. Lately, when I connect my iphone, the Sync3 volume stays locked to "Prompt Volume" and doesn't let me adjust the "Audio Volume". For those that don't know, the Prompt Volume controls volume for navigation or Siri prompts...

    Forbes wonders: Is Ford for Sale?

    Interesting read. IMO VW is the only company out there that could, and perhaps would, buy Ford. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jimcollins/2020/04/13/is-ford-for-sale/#13a342704394

    Ford coloring pages, including Gen2 Raptor

    Ford engineers aren’t super busy these days, so they created several coloring pages to pass the time. The last one is a Gen2 Raptor. I know what I’ll be doing with my kid this evening.. https://corporate.ford.com/ford-for-kids-activity-book.html

    Great deals coming down the pike after the Apocalypse???

    At what point did I exclude any rebates you just mentioned. Besides rebates and holdback, the factory pushes other direct to dealer incentives such as bonuses for the amount of inventory sold. Sometimes on a particular model, sometimes on the entire floor plan. Also, pickups have a HUGE amount...
