    Will it be faster than a TRX???

    Amen brother. One of the Raptors best attributes is a 500+ mile range. A comfy ride, roomy cab and grocery getter utility are an added bonus to the overall ultimate bad-a$$ truck rating..:)

    Opinions on Treadlife & Noise Experienced on Toyo Open Country MT ONLY - on a Raptor

    Speaking of Toyo, what do you guys think of the ATIII? D rated, 67lbs, good warranty. Like many things they look good on paper... https://www.toyotires.com/product/open-country-at3 :)

    All-New Ford F-150 Raptor Will Debut Feb. 3

    Was Fully agree with one exception... 25 years flying the F16 taught me that much power (27,000 lbs of thrust) comes at a price, fuel burn. or... "Light the wick, the gas goes quick" Same for a 700HP Raptor... maybe. :)

    Transmission & Transfer case fluid service

    I did the identical procedure on my "second truck" Tacoma I bought new in 2013. I drained mine and replaced Mobil 1 tranny fluid every 30K (Toyota's recommended miles) with cooler line off every other change. It's running strong and shifts like new at 140K. Will do same on my Raptor.. :).

    Dead raptor

    Yessir, blessed to have no injuries and...you get a new Truck out of the deal! Ever thought about ordering one on the mainland and shipping this way? A Houston dealer recently advertised "shipping anywhere you want it"...

    SVC Smurf Bumper Install

    I really like the clean look! Nicely done... Question: is that a light bar well hidden (covertly) behind your grill below the Ford logo? If so what flavor? :)

    :biggun: Lol Japan has mandatory snow tires North of 50 degrees N latitude from Nov-Apr. My Hilux 4x4 didn't need them so I just ran ATs year round. I was never stopped by Police as I had an American Flag on my back window. (Or I had the look of a foreigner who only spoke English) :) Our...

    Wow Henry, looking "tired" lol. So what winter tires are you running? When I was stationed in Northern Japan, Winter/Summer tire options for my Hilux TD 4x4 were very limited. Hopefully your options for Raptor tires in Norway are better.... :)

    High Output Lights on the Bumper

    I really like your options for the LP6's however I prefer a more OEM/Covert look, but utilitarian. That said, I'm looking at a set of BD S2 Pro flush mounts on the bumper plastic plates either side of the license plate hole which would add nicely to my DD lights hiding behind my bumper hole...

    2nd Gen Ford Raptor vs Ram TRX

    Amen brother.. Not to derail the TRX v Raptor thread further but... EVs and commie-fornia? Fully electric vehicles are still in their infancy even though CA tends to embrace virtuality vice reality. However comma, from the looks of the Mach E and Electra-F150 Ford is leading the charge, (so to...

    2nd Gen Ford Raptor vs Ram TRX

    The Raptor is the prototype, all others are copies. The original Mustang has the same history. One needs to look no further than the TRXs tweaked numbers that are slightly better on paper to see it's a marketing ploy with the crosshairs directly on the Raptor. Dodge has been doing this since the...
