That's a great question on the monitors. I had to drive it about 40 miles round-trip to get it weighed and another 10 miles to the smog guy, and I had no issues.

It's helpful that you posted this for others. I had a similar situation. I bought my Raptor in Ohio and had it shipped to California. When they offered to do all the CA DMV I took them up on it and they added it to what I owed. The truck arrived about 10 days after I worked them the funds...

With good credit in the current market, I would think a rate of around 7-8% would be about the best you can do. Here is my thinking on this; as of this morning, I can get 4.75% on a 1 year CD with Edward Jones. Essentially the banks are willing to give us 4.75% so they can use that money to...

It's not like the tires are hidden from sight and must be described. "Hey, these are 37s, not 35s, take note - everyone". I think a huge number 37 on the side of the truck looks out of place. While I'm not a fan of graphics and don't have them on my 2019, the bedside graphics (less the 37)...

Misery loves company, so thanks! Watched the sunrise over a snowy Lassen Peak a couple of mornings ago. We are fortunate to live in a very rural area of Cali.

Sadly, you are correct I am afraid.

You are asking for an opinion, so I will chime in. A good wife is much more difficult to get than even a Raptor R. I think she is correct. If it is your daily, it probably should be plated properly. If you mentioned what state you are in, I missed it. I'm a conservative business owner in...

On my 21 F250 Tremor, I found the shorted wire. I thought I'd post it here in case someone else runs across this with their F150/250/350. Found a chaffed wire behind the rear seat. Fixed it. No more issues. See pictures.

I'm surprised at how many have posted in this thread that they own a Raptor and a Wrangler. I'm also in that camp with a 2013 Rubicon (with an Edelbrock supercharger) and a 2019 Raptor. Since I bought the Raptor, the Rubicon mostly sits in the garage. If the Rubicon were a 392, I'd drive it...

I did not pull the bed. This tank sits in the bed and is a toolbox and a tank. The tank has a tiny pump that transfers fuel automatically, which is run off a fused 12v lead hooked directly to a battery. There is a controller that monitors the fuel levels in the factory main tank and also the...

Thanks, FordTechOne, that is what I suspected. I've looked at the harness back by the rear bumper for the rear camera, and I've also looked at the harness coming off the interior fuse box. We have a good dealer nearby, I just need to get the truck to them. But as a dealer for tractors, which...

The only thing wired in, meaning non-factory wiring, is the controls for my TransferFlow 40-gallon tank/toolbox. I put that in when the truck had less than 1000 miles on it. It has 16k miles now and is almost a year old. When fuse 36 blows, my Transfer Flow fuel display monitor continues to...

I have a 2019 Raptor, and the cameras work fine. I also have a 2021 F250 Tremor, and I keep blowing fuse 36 which, as stated above, makes me lose cameras, cruise control (adaptive), and rear heated seats. Sometimes replacing the fuse fixes the issue for a couple of days, sometimes the fuse...

Just drove my stock 2019 from Northern California to Kalispell, MT, and back. 1950 miles, 18.7 mpg per the meter. I did not hand calculate. Generally running about the speed limit to 5 over. I'm pleased with that.

From Dallas to Moab (not sure where you are going in Utah) is about 15 hours of driving. Depending on how much you like to drive, it is one long day or two leisurely days. I'd do a road trip for sure. If you ship, you can post up to U-Ship and you might get a great rate, but my experience is...

I have a 2013 Rubicon 6-speed manual, 2.5" lift, 35" tires, etc. I installed the Edelbrock E-Force supercharger. It is supposed to give about another 100HP, feels like maybe 50 extra HP. I mean, it helps and will run 70 up pretty much any grade, but our Raptor feels like it has 3x the HP...

It took me so many years to figure that out. I'd buy smart and pay cash, keep my rigs perfect and sell after a couple of years for about what I paid. Often making a little money. I went years and years swapping cars for about nothing. That is sort of a fun game in its own right. Had a C6Z06...

If one side decal is missing and not the other, I'd be suspicious of a repaired truck that suffered some body damage that has been fixed, but for whatever reason, the decal was not replaced. The problem with my theory is that it makes little sense for a dealer to do that. They would most...

Wish we had that tax situation in California, it makes sense and it makes a difference. By the way, I bought my 2019 Raptor from Klaben in Ohio. It was a good experience.

Buy the Raptor and then sell your Rebel if you can swing owning both rigs for a couple of weeks.

I'll confirm what was said above, the Raptor won't fit in just any slot on a car hauler. I had mine hauled from Ohio to California just prior to covid and it was harder than normal to get a good quote. When I questioned the delay and the higher price than was initially quoted I was told it...

Tell the dealer since he could not deliver you have decided to undo the deal. You want your truck back and all your money back. Of course, to do that will cause them all sorts of grief and expense, but hold firm on that. Then when they tell you they sold your trade-in or they say they can't...

I didn't think they could void your liability insurance for being drunk. And as much as we like our trucks, the loss of a truck is chump change compared to the cost to settle a liability claim on a major loss. And nothing is free, it's just paid for in a different manner and often by someone...

That is interesting and I think we all say "hooray" that the drunk guy takes a hit...except what happens to the poor soul that got clobbered by the drunk driver? Perhaps some sort of no-fault insurance, or maybe there is an uninsured motorist provision that kicks in for the victim. I'm curious...

It doesn't happen. Insurance covers mistakes and stupidity and even people taking risks they should not take. It has to as most wrecks have at least one person being stupid or making a mistake. It covers a drunk driver. It covers someone doing 20 mph over the speed limit. What it doesn't...
