    Moon Roof Option - Yes or No (Arizona Truck)

    Are you going to take this truck off road? Are you worried about road noise, reliability, and leaks? If you will keep truck long time and do a healthy amount of off road I would stay clear of moon roof. Maybe you could just put some of those glow in the dark stars on the top of the regular roof...

    Help me decide 801a or 802a

    Yeah just looking for more input that I might be missing with my close mindedness :) I too have friends at ford and they told me to wait until the transmission had reached good production numbers. I also feel more comfortable with the engine with the fact that a much more tuned version of it is...

    Help me decide 801a or 802a

    Yup I am not a huge fan off features just for the sake of competing with other brands. So you are saying the 801a does not have leather seats?

    Help me decide 801a or 802a

    Hi, I am trying to decide on which package to get. My gut feeling is to get the 801a and add the diff, 360 camera, and led mirrors and not worry about all the other things that are mostly nice to have's and will be potential problems. I will use the truck mostly for baja / desert trips around...

    Anyone that switched from small car to the raptor?

    I test drove the 2017 f-150 scab 3.5 since i could not drive the raptor at my dealer. The main difference that struck me was the weight. It is very slow in changing direction compared to steering input. I wonder if the scab raptor with a smaller wheel base and fox shocks would be better.

    Why are we unable to get inside Raptor at auto shows?

    Anyone know why they are not allowing the public to get inside the raptors at auto shows? Are they trying to re-sell them. Funny that the most expensive of the ford F-150 trims are open to public but not raptor.

    Rear suspension: independent vs solid axle..

    Hi, just wondering what the disadvantages and advantages of the raptor not having a independent rear suspension. And why Ford have decided against implementing this.
