Sounds like a dead/sticking blend door actuator. Had to replace one of these on my '04 Sierra out of warranty and also had another replaced under warranty by dealer. In the case of the Sierra it was a simple fix and $150 part. On the Sierra it also stored a BCM code (which will not throw a...

Yet another reason I don't even bother surfing the internet without AdBlockPlus. Sites think they're getting more revenue with this kind of nonsense. The more you squeeze people, the more simply block ads. If ads were static (non-animated, non-flash) banners on the periphery of the page, I...

I paid 50,500 on Dec 28 2010 for the same truck because I needed a truck *RIGHT NOW*. I had no vehicle and had to buy one in fiscal year 2010 and Ford wouldn't release my ordered truck due to PCM hold no matter how hard Randy tried to get hold of it. This was a new truck, purchased at a...

Not enough to justify it I'm sure. They're smooth (perfectly primary+second balance without shafts). But I'm sure the packaging of a V6 and ability to put it in multiple platforms make this a moot point.

:ROFLJest: The only silvers I've seen are kglesq's and the complete stripped one for sale with a $9000 markup at HB Ford. I've passed my exact truck several times. If I were doing a 2012, I'd go Red though.

I decided against one of these things. They certainly appear to reduce water protection, and I have zero interest in having to avoid water in a Raptor. Truck is rated for 30" (not at speed, of course).

Frickin awesome. I would've done an Ecoboost if it'd been an option. I love V8s but a turbo direct-injection motor would be damn interesting to me. Wish they'd made it straight-6 though.

Nav brightness hasn't bothered me a bit and I have the same concern. I've always run my Nav screens at the lowest possible setting at night. And love the fact that I can turn the screen completely OFF (including the LCD backlight....as in totally OFF) with the DISP button.

Nice work, both to the truck and with the camera. Tempted to copy you on the wheels...or maybe do a set of 2012s like that.

I'm guessing everyone with a 2011 Raptor is fairly disappointed in the "Gauge Mode" in the center display (the one which only shows transmission temp, even though a ton of other OBDII data is available). Why no voltage, independent tire pressures, coolant temp, MAP, MAF, throttle position, A/F...

Click this link, I don't want to repost it completely here: http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f51/kansas-delivery-california-raptor-review-randy-wilson-harley6lf250sdu-945/ Both brother (kglesq) and I **highly** recommend Randy for your order! Pretty much the best customer service we've ever seen...

Neat idea to run a video in on the Nav and Display OBDII data through it. Scary that their website calls it "OBD 11" though...hopefully that's a web designer error.

Guessing that's being/been rebuilt.

Awesome, congrats! Was looking at one at the local dealer, very nice looking piece. You're keeping the Raptor too though, right?

Are they doing a 4-auto transfer case for it, e.g., the Expedition item?

Great looking image edit...if they made it, I'd have to buy one. In high school my absolute dream vehicle was a 2-door Blazer/Tahoe. I'd do this even though I'd have to become one of those hated SUV drivers. (FYI, SUVs are bad for the planet.) :D

I have to turn my gear indicator on (by pressing + or -) each time I shift into D if I want to see it. If I put it in N, the indicator turns off. If I put it back in D, the indicator WILL NOT turn on unless I press +/- again. Starting it up and putting it in D, same thing: gear indicator...

I'm pretty sure these things have DFCO, i.e., Deceleration Fuel Cutoff as part of their PCM programming. Under engine braking with torque converter engaged, you should be getting no gas in the cylinders. Don't think fouled plugs are going to be a concern.

What's preventing you from going farther into that parking space...is the front end hitting a wall or a parking stop? Is it legal to park backwards? You can get a Raptor to stick out about one foot less if you're backing it in and only have to contend with a parking stop. I routinely use...

Think most mags have been seeing mid-6's 0-60 for a stock Raptor. Agree on the Camry bit though, 10 years ago that was fast, today most uplevel sporty vehicles can do the same. A 3000lb car only needs 200hp to run a Raptor....and there are a ton of 3500lb cars out now with 300hp engines...

I did stupid stuff like this in high school too, thankfully I only had 118hp on tap. Seriously man, half the people who had high performance cars at my high school wound up in fairly horrible accidents with them doing stuff like this. It's one thing to square off at a stop light to 60 or a bit...

I'm going to guess it needs to be seen in person. I'm still half tempted to go buy FX4 trim pieces to replace to the Raptor-specific ones...like their black "dot matrix" look a lot better than the silver.

Congrats! Really starting to like that Molten Orange, especially when devoid of graphics. Initially thought it was over the top, now I think I could own one.

No clue other than to suggest unpairing from both ends (delete truck in phone and phone in truck). Then re-pair. No problems here, have had a Droid 2, Droid X (original model), and Droid 3 paired with mine. There's also an update out for Sync (from a few months ago). Mine didn't have any...

I've never understood the excessive special edition Mustang price markups. The standard BOSS 302 looks like a great package, but the Laguna Seca's really starting to get into higher-spec car territory, given that you can get 90% of it in a 30k GT. But marking them up into the 70s and 80s seems...
