    GEN 2 My 2019 Repair Saga

    Thanks for that. I'll keep listening and decide whether or not to take it back soon. Do you know if CV's fail gradually, or does it usually happen suddenly? Does all this seem like a bit much for a 49k mile truck? It has definitely not been abused. Off road 2 or 3 times per year. I like to...

    One 2019 OEM BFG KO2 35 for Sale (Albuquerque)

    Not sure if this is kosher, but I'll give it a try. My 2019 SCrew is due for tires at 39k miles. I have one KO2 with 2019 date code that has never been run. Only did 4-tire rotations, so I have the spare available. It's been hanging under the truck since new but appears to be in good shape...

    GEN 2 Using the engine brake

    I'll throw a plug for @GooseTuned in here. I went with a Stage 1 GooseTune with TCM as soon as I got my truck. Just got back from a road trip to and from AZ. Outbound trip the roads were dry. Return trip they were wet and heavily snow covered on the passes. Sport mode (and 4A for the...

    The Raptor in it’s Natural Habitat…

    Scenes from Moab on a recent visit in my buddy's 2021. Glad we were in his and not mine!

    Aftermarket Rotors

    Revisiting an old post here - consider me a brake dummy. Could you advise why the braided brake lines make a difference in pedal feel? I'm looking at this exact upgrade for my 2019. Thanks!

    I would love to meet up and learn from someone much more experienced off-road than I am!

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    Very cool. The Laguna Burger run sounds awesome!

    Yes indeed! It was my first time, and we had a blast! Are you local to ABQ?

    GEN 2 Has anyone tried the FactionFab Front Brake Upgrade?

    Hi Everyone, I have a 2019 that is Goosetuned Stage 1, and the truck really needs a brake upgrade with as fast and heavy as it is. I have 27k miles on my Gen 2, and the stock brakes have plenty of life left, but in hard stops from high speeds I get some vibration in the pedal, and the stopping...

    New gen 2 2018 owner from ca Slo 805

    Another vote for AWE 2FG here. Guessing it should keep you legal in Cali, as it only replaces the mid-muffler with a H-pipe. Seems perfect to me! I'm also Goosetuned stage 1, and that is definitely the way to go as well!

    Check-in from Biloxi,MS

    Looks like the truck is lifted and leveled. Do you have the details? How does it ride? Have you driven a stock Raptor to compare ride and handling?

    Looking For Creative Bike Mounts

    I am a super avid mountain biker and racer, and the current consensus is that the 1Up racks are hands down the best hitch mount option. I have a Thule T2 Classic, and it works fine, but I wish I would have sprung for the 1Up with the wall mount for storage. A good friend has one (2-bike...

    Has anybody else received the tailgate recall?

    Got the letter on Thursday. 2019 802A. Had the tailgate open one time against the garage door, and yep, opened the garage and scratched the heck out of the upper center section around the tailgate handle. Covered it up with some matte black 3M wrap. Maybe Ford will cover the cosmetic repair...

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

    2019 802A SuperCrew CPO purchased in early October with just over 11k miles on it at time of purchase. Just over 21k now. Mods are removal of bed graphics (kept them on the hood), PPF on front of truck, hood, and mirrors, Goosetuned stage 1 (which also takes care of auto start/stop), TCM tune...

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    I can highly recommend stage 1 and TCM tune from @GooseTuned Absolute game changer for the behavior of the truck. Many others have said that's how it should have come from the factory.

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    Not a peep from the dealership about my tunes. It's been there twice for service since I got it, and they haven't said anything. I obviously can't promise that it wouldn't come up if I had an issue, but my understanding is that they have to be able to prove that the tune caused the problem in...

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    I'm thinking about suspension leveling or possibly wheels/tires when the OEM K02's need replacing...they probably have half their life left, so it'll be awhile. 21,000 miles on the truck currently. Stage 2 is also a possibility but not sure I want to risk it since I have an extended warranty...

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    @Rep732 I got my truck in early October and had it Goosetuned by the end of that first month. I took it for service this past Friday and completely uninstalled the ECU and TCM tunes before I drove it across town. It is PAINFUL to drive it stock. So sluggish with unpredictable transmission...

    AWE 2FG Exhaust

    Installed mine this weekend. Think I'm going to love it. I'm Goosetuned stage 1 with TCM, so it appears that I won't have the issues with the 40-42 mph and 10th gear concern.
