    GEN 2 Possible Relocation to Cali

    This has been consistently the case since at least 2006 though. I've moved in and out of California multiple times and helped friends and family workaround U-Haul's pricing scheme doing the same. Pro-tip: Check cities even a couple hundred miles away from your origin and destination...

    2021 Factory mounted generator from Ford?

    I think this thing is exactly like the 2003 GM Inverter/Generator setup. The "generator" is the 3.5L Ecoboost. There's a big battery pack and an inverter that can deliver 7.2KW (or 2.4KW). When battery pack / current draw / fuel available hits certain thresholds engine starts/stops.

    Tire Armor On Inside of Tires

    I always de-bead mine and do the actual inside too.

    Placement of spare tire for 37's?

    It'd be fine with different-sized tires on the rear too I think? Not sure if traction control would be annoyed by it, but that could be turned off.

    Opinions on SAE lighting

    Rigids seem to be the brightest of these... I have the amber BD item.... I do like them as fogs (in yellow), but they're not a huge difference over the headlights. Nice to use to increase visibility of truck to others though. See this post for garage pics of my BD yellow SAEs vs Squadron...

    Percentage of raptor owners that actually really use their trucks

    I don't even own one, I just say I do to look cool on the Internet.

    What did you do to your Raptor today? (Gen2)

    Ermagerd!!! I just mindlessly threw mine in the truck today and didn't even see that. Thank you!

    GMC Hummer SuperTruck 10/20/20

    These torque numbers are bullshit "wheel torque" So assuming Raptor driveline losses reduce effective engine torque to 400 lb/ft from rated 510 lb/ft number.... 4.10 (axle ratio) * 4.6957 (first gear) * 400lb/ft = 7,700lb-ft of torque. Now multiply that by 2.64 (for low range) = 20,330 lb-ft...

    GEN 1 2011 - Why is my instrument cluster different?

    Looks like they replaced the gauge faces with these aftermarket ones: https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/new-gauge-faces.13844/ Congrats on the new truck!

    2nd Gen Transfer Case

    Extremely happy with it so far, just saw first snow (after not having lived somewhere with snow for a decade). This was the feature I missed most when i went from a GMC Sierra to a 2011 Raptor. And this implementation seems far superior to the GM AutoTrac. Only issue that bugs me is...

    Fabtech 4 inch lift pros and cons

    Can't go back...have to cut it. ^ Not safe for work, children, or anyone who doesn't like seeing a truck destroyed. (Got to 9:50)

    Fabtech 4 inch lift pros and cons

    Like any traditional pickup "suspension lift" It's just a spacer that moves the front suspension down 4" away from the frame. It structurally compromises and weakens the truck, changing the load path of forces taken by the front end. With a truck that's designed to go fast and sometimes do so...

    One HOT wheel, and three not so hot

    Trading 2020 lariat for 2017 or 2018 raptor , which one should I go for? One has 21500 miles more.

    The dealer is asking you to commit insurance fraud? That would mildly suggest that they might also be more than happy to commit fraud against you. Run away.

    Premium vs. Plus vs. Regular

    Word, yeah generally if it makes no mention of 89/91/93 octane support, it does diddly/squat. Won't make anyone's Prius faster. :D

    Premium vs. Plus vs. Regular

    Gen 1s are rated by Ford at 411hp on 91 and 401hp on 87. It's in the Raptor Supplement manual: https://www.fordservicecontent.com/Ford_Content/Catalog/owner_information/2014-F-150-SVT-Raptor-Supplement-First-Print_rp_en-us_09_2013.pdf Most engines can increase performance, be it max power or...

    I need help with day/night display issue............

    I saw something slightly like this with the 3.4 update I think, along with a few other wacky glitches, like the physical "MEDIA" button no longer switching to next source once it got to FM. I did the "master reset" from settings/general (I think that's where it is).

    3D Maxpider floor mats anyone?

    Are these made in the US or China? Price looks good and they look nicer than WT in some ways but would rather get WT (USA made) if these are Chinese.

    GEN 2 Temporary Raptor Replacement - What would you do?

    GEN 2 Temporary Raptor Replacement - What would you do?

    Depreciation on Tacos is similar to a Raptor, if not less. Buying a used Taco seems like a dumb idea to me given that new ones are nearly the same price.

    Help please 2017 vs 2020 Raptor

    It's a bluish-cyanish color, similar to the lit text color of the physical buttons.

    Damn Rough Country light bar, Get what you pay for.

    I remember looking at this and seeing a video where they said you have to trim some of the shutters to make it fit. I think that's not the case on the BD item (don't have either).

    Sync 3.4 Update

    Yep, disables 911 assist and also your speed limit indicator appears yrup-style, white circle with black numbers and red ring around it (looks better imo, still in MPH)

    Sync 3.4 Update

    I have a couple minor mods that make me worried about changing anything here... 1.) I disabled my LTE Modem (pulled fuse). Just want to make sure it doesn't bitch about this all the time. 3.3 does not care at all, no annoying popups or anything. 2.) I used forscan to enable...

    New color for 2021?

    No one really knows. Between Gen 1 and Gen 2 there was a two-year gap of no Raptor. But Gen 2 and Gen 3 (13th and 14th generation of F-150) are extremely similar (they changed doors/fenders/grille/tailgate slightly, but frame and structure are the same....the big change for 2021 F-150 is major...
