    newborn and raptor, any thoughts?

    I have a 2 year old and we just had a baby 1 week ago. I got the Raptor because of the huge amount of space in the back seat for kids. I think its a great family car/truck.

    Off road navigation

    I use Avenza Maps app. Similar with the other ones suggested you can download the map area that you are going and it uses your phones GPS to pin point you on the map. Started using this for mountain biking and you can download a lot of map areas around where I am for offroading.

    GEN 2 First oil analysis

    Where are you all doing your oil analysis testing. Ive used Blackstone Labs on my BMW in the past. Is there a better option for these trucks with a bigger database for comparison. One thing I like about Blackstone is they compare your sample to like samples they get. Similar mileage on car and...

    Comfort Access for rear doors on SCREW Models

    I think it was a cost decision by Ford since many other manufactures have rear door comfort access. Keep us posted when you take it apart. It would be a nice feature to add if possible.

    Comfort Access for rear doors on SCREW Models

    I think he is referring to unlocking the rear doors when just walking up and grabbing them. I think its annoying too that you cant do that. My X5 I can unlock/lock any door with comfort access.

    Thin door jam paint

    I dont have a paint thickness gauge but mine look fine. Cant see the primer underneath. Ive seen other posts about thin paint around the headlights under the hood/fenders. Not really great QC with these trucks like it should be.

    Which seats for my 2020 Raptor? Recaro or black leather?

    I went with the black in my 2019 because I have 2 toddlers and think the leather will hold up better than alcantara. Not sure if thats a factor in your decision. Generally alcantara doesnt wear well over time but its yet to be seen with these seats since they are fairly new.

    The Raptor Wave

    I always wave, gen 1 or gen 2. I probably get about 50% wave backs.

    2019 Raptor Assault

    This...when I tell people about Raptor Assault I always say that the jump is more for a cool picture than feeling like you're doing something awesome in the truck. You barely feel that you are jumping. But it definitely sounds good when you tell people you jumped the truck.

    GEN 2 Flat spot during acceleration.. ANY IDEAS??

    From what Ive read break in is only 500 miles. I was watching stock dyno videos earlier today and they are showing the hp and torque curve really "starting" at 3700 rpms. Could be just how the engine power is. I haven't really noticed a flat spot in mine. Could also be timing when you start...

    Perimeter Plus Issue

    Got the KN1Z module and its working great now. So now I have a 2018 JS7Z module in almost new condition. PM me if you are interested. I don't have enough posts for the for sale section yet.

    Powder coated Stock Rims

    So far so good. Ive only been off road with them once in the sand dunes...and I got stuck so they had lots of wear against them. I have used plastidip a lot in the past and find its only an issue if you curb the wheel. Then it starts peeling. On the truck the sidewalls are too tall to curb.

    Perimeter Plus Issue

    I think its 20 seconds to arm the alarm. So something is triggering it immediately when it arms the shock sensor. I was hoping someone had gone through it and already took it in for service for troubleshooting and had an answer so I don't have to take it in. Not worth it for the time and cost...

    Perimeter Plus Issue

    I thought about that but that is weird since no one else has this issue and I zip tied it to the recommended spot. Seems weird its exactly 20 seconds whether its cold or hot. I tried it with the sensitivity all the way down and same issue.

    Perimeter Plus Issue

    Wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I installed the shock sensor perimeter plus module recently and now after I drive, stop and lock the car. 20 seconds later the alarm goes off. I can unlock and re-lock and the alarm wont go off. Its only after I drive it and park. I tried...

    2019 Need to knows before signing the papers

    I think its a tire pressure issue. First thing when I got mine was drive it home 400 miles and it felt like that. Mine was set at the dealer to 48psi all around. Once I got home I lowered the pressure to 38 like recommended on the door and the "bounce" went way down. I usually run 37F; 34R now...

    Powder coated Stock Rims

    I ended up doing a plastidip version of this. Bronze Gold with a few light coats of graphite metalizer on top.

    touch up paint for OEM flares

    From what Ive researched the color is J7 Magnetic Metallic with a satin clear coat. A while ago I saw a video of someone repainting their fender after a ding with J7 + Satin clear coat and said it matched almost exact. I cant find that video though.

    GEN 2 Painted Front Grill

    This makes me want to re-think painting my grill. I saw a few of the 17/18 blue and didn't like the look of a painted grill but yours with the performance blue looks good. Any daytime shots and angled shots?

    Rear Seat Bracket Rust

    Anyone else have rust behind the rear seats? 2019 picked up a few weeks ago. Didn't look behind the seats during inspection. Its on all the mounts. No moisture inside the truck at all.

    GEN 2 Tow Hitch D-Ring

    I have one for this reason...sticks out just enough to "protect" the bumper.

    KO2 tire life, pics

    Door sticker says 38. Mine came from the dealer at 49psi and was really bumpy. Lowered mine down to 38 and made a huge difference and lowered them slightly more. Running around 37 and am really happy. Also, my rain/wet handling has been pretty good...and living in Seattle that is important. I...
