    Airbags?

    Oh sorry, I didn’t specify I’m a 2020 raptor, just a simple outdated gen 2. But thought I would add my thoughts in general. I can’t believe it’s a totally different application if it’s a gen 3?

    Airbags?

    I’m having airbags installed in 1 week. The shop I’m using says they install a lot on Raptors and everybody loves them. My trailer isnt really that heavy (5’x12’ enclosed), maybe 2500-3000 lbs all tools loaded, but the sag is enough to affect my unhooking at angle in my driveway and need that...

    The death of car culture

    When it pulled up next to me it was clearly an F-150 but appeared so low to the ground and no running boards, maybe it was some base model lightning that had no appeal to me at all and I’ve been driving F-150’s for 28 years. Maybe now that I’m spoiled with a Raptor its hard to impress me.

    The death of car culture

    Yeah, the wifes a bit jealous, but realized quick the women turning their heads to look at me….. are looking at the Raptor and not me. So sad

    The death of car culture

    Not even close, looks like a honda pick up (whatever those are called idk). It would have helped if it looked liked a regular F150

    The death of car culture

    You won’t get burned at the stake, I hate “cancel culture”, everyone should be able to state their opinions. I don’t see the generation of my grandchildren (I’m 54) having a love of cars and trucks like mine or previous generations. Electric might be cool, but your not doing ur own work on it in...

    The death of car culture

    I had posted this as a response to a different thread but thought I’d start one to get all ur thoughts as well. Just my 2 cents: with all the comments here about EV’s (f150 lightning), what do you think when you‘ve actually seen one on the road? Was it like my thought “that (lightning) is ugly...

    Anybody else over the new Raptor R already?

    Just my 2 cents: with all the comments here about EV’s (f150 lightning), what do you think when you‘ve actually seen one on the road? Was it like my thought “that (lightning) is ugly as sin!”. I would never buy that ev f150, it looks like a little toy, and nothing like a real F-150. Ford just...

    (Wrong thread please delete)

    I’m confused, is this forum only for gen 3 owners? Because I’v been on here ever since my gen 2 purchase in 2020 before gen 3’s were out.

    Anyone use a truck cover for outside parking?

    Even though Im parked in the garage 95% of the time, sometimes with travel or at a job site I use a cover for keeping tree sap or bird s**t off. Sun takes its toll eventually so I would cover it for sure.

    Window sticker location

    You might want to look very closely with direct sunlight on glass. When I purchased my ‘20 I noticed what at first appeared to be scratches on just the window the sticker had been removed from. I thought they used a razor blade or something to take off. And I didn’t see it right away either. The...

    Ghetto Crusing….

    Is there even going to be a lake mead in the near future? You’ll soon be driving thru dry lake beds in that part of the country. Nowhere left for the mob to hide the bodies.

    Stolen - 2019 black CCSB - from driveway

    I’m sure you were sick to ur stomach walking out to find it gone. Gets me thinking though, I’ve got an extra apple air tag, I’m gonna hide in my truck now since they can disable ford pass tracking. Then maybe better chance of still locating. Hope you get it back, but it’s still no fun knowing...

    GEN 2 - A/C Issue

    Or it’s just standard operating raptor fan, which is the weakest I’ve ever encountered. It’s one of only a few disappointments with my raptor, horrible blowing power. AC or heat

    SF Bay Area Body shop—need recommendation

    My rear bumper got hit 2 months ago. They just checked to see if it bent the tow/hitch assembly which it didn’t so a new bumper was $2400 here in MN. Probably more where ur at. But never spoke to anyone except the body shop. They dealt with the other drivers insurance. By the looks of ur hit...

    New from Minnesnowta

    I’m in the Cities everyday, so far my off-roading consists of the 494/694 loop and everything inside and out of it. All the pot holes in our roads is kinda like off-road, I bounce all over and try not to damage the underbody When traffic is bad I even go over the curbs. Kidding aside I’ve...

    Options on my R

    I don’t believe these statements of so many people don’t want/like the sunroof. I personally wouldn’t buy one without it. So what if has a track problem or whatever, get it fixed like you would with anything else that breaks. When checking around to see what I could get for my ‘20 (just for...

    GEN 2 Rant: Why is the gen 3 so ugly?? Passing up a free chance to upgrade

    I think this guy is trolling, trying to upset the guys who have been waiting months and months to get their dream gen 3 truck and say he could get it almost free but is going to pass cause he doesnt like the ”looks”. Then ask “what would you guys do?” He knows what everyone on here would do...

    What, if any, are your regrets with your Raptor?

    2020 Raptor, fully loaded. Pros: sun roof (open every chance I get), lane keeping works well, adaptive cruise works flawlessly, love the tailgate step, Cons: as much as I love a cooled seat there is simply not enough airflow to really enjoy the feature needs way more fan power, I will never use...

    New Member Here!

    If ur counting on 200k + miles, ur already at the + so who knows if it will be 10 miles or 100k. I couldn’t in my wildest imagination spend that kinda $ for a 200k mile truck. It’s all a risk/reward gamble. But I’m not a “betting man”. I would keep looking.

    Ordered a TRX

    Is this a Raptor forum or a Raptor/TRX love fest? Can’t believe how many memebers on here are touting a Ram. Is Ram sending in secret agents to infiltrate the Ford forum to turn them to trx!? And according to the current administration there won’t be any gas to be sold to put in the trx ur...
