    Gen 2 Owners: Are you going to Gen 3, Gen 3-R or staying with your Gen 2??

    Deer goes on top ;) and Elk can take the passenger seat. That's my dilemma as well, going from a truck to SUV is not as easy of transition as I had hoped. Ordered a Leer 100XQ Sport as a compromise.

    How many paid MSRP?

    Amazing how everyone paid MSRP on here, but out in the wild that's a laughable concept. Next question should be how many lie about paying MSRP or don't actually have the truck in their possession so the dealer can still finagle some ADM? I've called 20 dealers ranging from NV, UT, ID, OR, WA...

    My journey to Raptor R ownership

    It's like "business ethics", it's an oxymoron. The dealers (especially salesman) will say anything to make a quick buck knowing full well that they have zero allocation for a 37" truck or an unconfirmed for price or even ETA Raptor R. Then they pull the rug out from under to ADM your vehicle or...

    My journey to Raptor R ownership

    Dealer's will say absolutely anything to take your money and keep it as long as they can. There will be many bait and switches, just look at how many people have been screwed trying to a get 37" allocation. Most dealers literally do not know their head from their A.Z.Z

    Another great review of 21 Raptor

    Based on the actual published spec's she missed, I'm guessing she has next to no clue what she's talking about with purchasing a Raptor R. Someone at Ford may have promised her one, but she does not have one on order, nor does her demo MY21 Raptor have 491 HP or 500 LB/FT of torque.

    Which model is the better off-roader?

    I hope it's that simple, would be nice for people that want to mount 37's without the airline seats. But I digress.

    Which model is the better off-roader?

    My 100% uneducated guess based on outfits like SVC, the OEM option will be less expensive, but the aftermarket will be better (besides voiding any and all suspension warranties). I would guess OEM will be the only option for 37" spare tire under the bed however since they made frame adjustments...

    Doug Demuro Gen3 Review.

    Once people add a fake intake scoop and three marker lights to their rebels it's gonna be very tough to tell since width will be the primary difference....like Gen 2 conversions from a F150. Passes at quick glance, but that is it.

    Raptor Videos & Exhaust Sound + New Dumont Dunes Cali Sand Dune Videos & TFL

    It did, overly aggressive, that's my bad. I do still watch, unfortunately there's not many people pumping out content as early as them on many of these new release vehicles like the TRX and Raptor. And occasionally they knock it out of the park, no doubt! I just wish they could be more objective...

    I'm sorry for having an opinion, I didn't realize I didn't earn the right to that. But yes they pump out some content no doubt, I just wish they would focus on quality rather than quantity. If you don't like my opinion, you don't have to read or respond to what I say, right? JK, but in all...

    Edited for hate speech Generally worthless when it comes to their first impressions and reviews. Countdown to TRX vs Gen 3 Ecoboost drag race has begun, for them to crown the "king"

    2021 FORD RAPTOR - First Drive POV

    I like a lot about the new truck, displays, rear suspension, wireless charging. I also hate the smaller mirrors, the blue interior on 37 package. Hope to drive one soon and see if it's worth the switch, but don't know if it's worth it for DD if just going to 35's.

    What California's New ECU Law Means for Tuned Cars

    Every time I come through LA I can't decide if it's scarier to be the one driving, or take my chances with an Uber. Even driving I feel helpless with so many stupid drivers surrounding me. Just kinda pray jesus takes the wheel when in the Uber LOL

    Hello from Reno

    Looks like you're in Somersett or Galena area, good places to play with the Raptor not far from both!

    Talk about crazy advertising and ADM...

    If they gave a rats a$$ about protecting their customer, they wouldn't just threaten, they'd actually do it. Show the customer base they give a single ****. Regardless of what excuse the dealer may have for incorrect MSRP, do you believe for one second that they made a mistake or have a...

    Talk about crazy advertising and ADM...

    Like Ford actually cares, they've never addressed these ADM's so who's to say MSRP isn't "open to interpretation"? As long as their investors are happy they'll let whatever fly.

    2017 - 2020 differences

    There's other people far more informed than I, but off the top of my head the change from 17/18 to 19/20 that stands out is Fox Live Valve shocks in place of the the standard 3" Fox shocks. 17/18 Also had a Cam Phaser TSB that has been thoroughly addressed, and may have applied to some 19 MY...

    Vehicle warranty vs. Mods, should I be concerned?

    You can remove the tune, but almost all tune/tuners leave a trace on the trucks computer ECU that Ford can see. @FordTechOne can describe that in better technical detail. Of all the mods to avoid, I put a tune at the very top until my warranty is long gone just because I paid extra for an...

    Vehicle warranty vs. Mods, should I be concerned?

    I'd imagine there's "zero" assurances to be given. You modify the vehicle from stock, (spacers for example), any components directly related to that change are no longer covered by any warranty. Your service advisor may turn a blind eye to some small things, but is by no means obligated to. You...

    Anyone getting toppers(truck caps) for their G3?

    I like the security, coverage, and volume of space the toppers allow. I'm definitely going to get one on the next Raptor, probably with a decked or cargoglide as well.

    GMC Sierra Jackal By PaxPower Is Ford F-150 Raptor Rival

    This is a completely different aftermarket truck than what Chevy actually offers. Until Chevy actually builds this or has them on their lots from the factory this is not a competitor.

    Anyone know the X plan pricing for a Gen 3?

    I think you mean because you want one, and have a family connection. Get a Tremor 250

    Installed BAK MX4 yesterday and its ok!

    I have a custom foam seal I flashcut for mine and it stays as dry as I'd hope, it sealed well prior to my intervention as well. The bed itself has visible leak points from underneath all over the place, so I cannot complain about my MX4 at all.
