    HVAC fan weak?

    My sons ‘21 bronco sport has 10 times the power, fan, cold air than my ‘20 raptor. I thought something was wrong at first also but realized it’s just a BAD air conditioning design/function. Kinda embarrassing when people will ride with me at and ask “is the air on?” And I say “yes it is, just...

    For those of you with recent Gen2 purchases

    I’ll bet they all come down heavily in the next 6 months with the impending recession the media keeps telling us is gonna happen. I bet it does as I’m already having clients cancel jobs due to “economy” and stock market and rising gas prices. So just wait and you’ll get a deal.

    Nobody missing BlueCruise?

    I would never trust my life to a “sensor”, so I wouldn’t have wanted it anyway. I like to be in control of my machine.

    Minor bump steer at freeway speeds

    I have a stock 2020 and are you talking about when you hit a “bump” “hump” or “heavy transition” at highway speeds only above 60moh I’ve found, the rear end jumps kind of to the side? It has to be shocks or something, when I’m towing my trailer at same speed it really limits how it jumps to the...

    Drive Raptor in LA as daily commute car

    You need a motorcycle in LA, only way to deal with traffic. Legal to ride the slot there unlike other states. But I hated growing up and working in SO CAL so I left years ago. Get ready for anxiety and road rage drivers, good luck.

    Acceleration response time

    Yep, everyone’s right, should put in sport mode. I was doing my regular run to a job but always in “normal mode”, but had a sudden desire to get out of the traffic jamb saw a way to make a move and didn’t think about “modes” and just punched it. Next time I’ll think before react. But that 1 sec...

    Acceleration response time

    The other day was the first time I’ve ever fully went from sitting idle to full throttle, “pedal to the metal” and was shocked at how much lag time until it responded (with great power I might add). I’m glad I now know how much time to give myself the next time, because I was pulling out of a...

    Rear seat latch issue

    I dont think they “latch“ when in the down position, which is fine with me cause its then a one handed operation to lift seat up and it locks there.

    Back seat gets no AC. Normal?

    Must be on everybody’s. I’m a ‘20 and since the day I got it it’s one of the little things that bug me. NO AIR FLOW!!! All the other fords you can hear and feel the air blowing. I wonder if mines even working sometimes cause there is hardly any sound and can barely feel it even with fan on...

    Cam phasers in your garage

    I’m not a mechanic and will never attempt this, but I thoroughly enjoyed the pics and explanation of the process. Now I somewhat can understand what you guys (mechanics) are talking about when this subject comes up.

    Flat tire advice needed

    If you use the spare be aware that it may look completely different than the rest. At 5000 miles when I had my first tire rotation I asked for all 5 to be rotated. But when I looked at it I said take the original spare off and put back under truck. (Never to be seen again until an emergency)...

    2018 grinding noise

    You must be new to this forum. It’s seems there is an outrages number of us who’ve experienced the rediculous IWE issue. It s almost like it’s a raptor initiation you have to go thru. My initiation was at mile 12 off the lot. It’s a sickening feeling to have a brand new $75K truck to sound like...

    How are you locking ur truck with key fob inside the cab? I can’t lock mine with the fob in it.

    Aftermarket mods, will I recoup dollars spent?

    All I can say is I’m sooooo glad I’ve kept mine stock!

    Bed liner overspray removal?

    Wow that’s an egregious error. Must’ve been new guy first day in the job. But you should let the dealer fix it because if you try with a razor or chemical based solvent and you scratch or fade the paint then it’s on you. If the paint changes at all then they have to fix.

    Poll-Do you acknowledge fellow Raptor Drivers?

    I sure do, I lean as far out my window as I can, half my body length and wave wildly 180 degrees back and forth screaming to get my fellow raptor riders attention…. But very few acknowledge me….am I doing it wrong?

    Worth Upgrading between 2018 and 2019/20?

    Not many guys have owned raptors so close together year wise that you’llfind a definitive answer. I’m sure guys have “driven” those years ur debating but “owned”? All I can say is I bought a 2020 fully loaded screw and I’m so happy with it I’m not even considering going to a gen 3. Power, audio...

    2010 Collectible/Price…

    Are you gonna buy it and let it sit as well unused for years to come or drive it and use it? I’ve paid the price twice on vehicles with extremely low miles thinking I’m getting a deal, only to discover when a car sits and isn’t driven seals, gaskets and any thing else that can leak or get dried...

    Favorite Tonneau Cover

    You should have the WeatherTech alloy tri-fold on your survey. I love it $960 installed in 30 min and low low profile.

    Fantastic Undercoat/Line-X wheel well shop

    IT IS AN UNDERBODY COATING! Seperate from the bed liner coating. Again as others know with tens of thousands of customers with any product there are some negative viewpoints and/or experiences. But my experience with having it done for over 20 years to my vehicles and most recently my Raptor and...

    Fantastic Undercoat/Line-X wheel well shop

    I recommend getting underbody coating as well. I’ve never known anyone who’s had a frame rust out because of the coating! I had my ‘01 f150 lariat done and my son blew the engine in it 17 yrs later, but no RUST! I’m in MN with salted roads so had Line-X do my ‘20 raptor (got a 2 car discount)...

    Prediction: Raptor R ends up casualty of Ukraine/Russia war…

    I’m glad to see most everyone on this forum seems aware that the “climate” concerns have nothing to do with the actual CLIMATE! It’s just adding more government to peoples lives and a source for more tax $ to be acquired. And it’s nice to know everyone on here knows exactly what ur talking...

    Floor Mats

    I don’t care how the mat looks in winter. The problem with factory and weather tech is that when snow melts off my boot treads because the heater is on the water seems to still flow out of mat toward the door threshold and water then soaks the carpet with the dirt and salt thus risking carpet...
