    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    Been perusing the Gen3 board more, looks like I have a few tasks to accomplish this weekend. Go through the sticky thread, remove the flappy things under the fogs, etc. I want to investigate the heated steering wheel more as that is a feature my keyboard hands will miss. I just don't have...

    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    Came with the Rigids, antenna, painted front hooks, bed extender, bed mat and tonneau cover. Not sure if the pods will stay. I need to get bed liner sprayed in and will tint the front door windows to match the rear.

    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    Traded in and wrote the check for the balance yesterday morning. Drove about 20 miles yesterday. 2023 is a tighter truck all around - driving and fit/finish. Headed to the shore Thursday, 150 miles with a mix of back roads, highway and stop/go traffic. Up to Maine next week for vacation...

    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    I built the truck online for $87,195. Add PA tax and fees, that would be just shy of $92,980. This one has 2,000 miles, they've had it for 2 months. There is room to get out the door for well less than their asking price of $87,500/$93,300. I see you are in Manheim. I'm just north, in...

    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    Yes, I have looked at Ford.com and built a new truck. There is room in the deal. I'm not concerned about what I will pay. It won't be their price. What I am asking is about the truck itself. What are the top watchouts. Are the issues from this thread sorted out...

    Looking at upgrading to a 2023

    I currently have a 2019 Raptor that I really enjoy. Local GM dealership has a couple used Raptors. One is a loaded 2023 that I took a look at this afternoon just for fun. Deal is decent, I can do some negotiation on trade and total OTD. I really don't NEED a new-ish truck (2000 miles), but...

    Drivers Side Heated Seat fixed with pictures

    Thanks much for this write up. Almost 80K miles on my 2019, my driver side has been out for about a year. Got the part when I was in for service last week. Yesterday morning I laid a blanket in the bed/tailgate and replaced it without issue. Mine wasn't burned, but was broken. Took just...

    Looking to get new tires

    Back in December, I put on another set of BFGs after 55K miles from the stock tires. Wanted General ATX, but they weren't available for months.

    Driver side heated seat not working Gen 2

    Had my truck in today for service and I mentioned my seat no longer heats. They diagnosed it as the element. Thanks for the write up above. Looks like I have a project ahead of me.

    Cam Phaser Recall - Service Horrible

    I had to wait 6 weeks to have the parts replaced, but that was due to the dealership's labor and a few engine rebuilds ahead of me in line. I drove the truck as normal, yes the cold starts sounded awful, but no damage was done. Just drive it and in a few weeks it will be corrected.

    FSA 21B10 - Cam phaser update?

    Got my truck back last evening. 10 days. It would have been 4 days, but when the tech was hooking up the fuel system something broke and pieces went everywhere, even into the oil pan. So parts had to be ordered and everything torn apart. Felt so good to saddle into the Raptor after that...

    FSA 21B10 - Cam phaser update?

    Well, I have the Ranger until mid-next week. When the tech was hooking the fuel system back to the engine this morning, the connector broke and pieces went everywhere. So, tech has to undo do some things, drop the oil pan, fish out the broken pieces. And the replacement fuel system parts...

    FSA 21B10 - Cam phaser update?

    They said 3-5 days. They are way understaffed, I had to wait 6 weeks to get it in. Having them check the timing chain for any stretch while they have it apart.

    FSA 21B10 - Cam phaser update?

    Dropped my truck off this morning for cam phaser replacement. I got a Ranger XLT. Cute little truck for the week.
