I went with CarPro CQuartz (pro} on my truck. I highly recommend it. I've had it on other cars as well, and if you want to take it off, it comes off with a light polishing-simple as that. You will get sh!t on this forum from all the Try-Hards that seem to hang here if you are caught caring...
If you have the plastic oil pan (yellow plug), there is no Fumoto valve for it. One of the first things i did when I bought my truck 2 months ago was call and ask, and they said we are working on it, nothing yet. I couldn't get the Raptor to show up on the website vehicle selector so not sure...
In your mind, were does the loss in MPG come from when moving up in tire size.. the 130 pounds in extra weight in wheels and tires? Following that logic: when your girl jumps in your truck adding 200lbs to it, do you see a 2 mpg drop in fuel economy? No you don't. When her AND her 250 pound...
Yes it does and without a doubt. Also in play is the increased mechanical difficulty of turning a larger diameter tire

Coming from other lifted trucks: The weight increase from larger tires/wheels contributes to decreased MPG but not nearly as much as the effect of the change in final drive ratio caused by the larger tires. The engine is no longer running in the sweet spot with regard to RPM. Seems like...
The fender itself isn't cracked as far as we can tell. I really think it's expansion of that material Ford used and I got a fender painted on a Friday or something. Someone else reported having a crack in their finish a well in this thread.

.... So anyway....
theory on the cracks in the finish:. It was hot as hell (Denver area) the days that the dealership had the truck for the recall when the cracking occurred. Direct sun in Denver being extremely intense, heats up the composite material that the front fender is made from and it...
The issue is that the $72k truck I bought brand new now has 'prior paint'. I treat all my vehicles like they were Bugattis, that's how I was brought up. I should be ever so thankful for Ford stepping up to unfuck the screwed up paint on their product I bought from them. Who's the customer...
So the dealership agrees that they are indeed cracks in the finish. The GM has approval from Ford to have the fender repainted. My problem with this is that I have a brand new truck with a mistake in the factory finish and after the proposed fix I will have a brand new truck that already has a...
My choice was between Black and Lead Foot, I chose Black because, black.
Second choice was Lead Foot for sure.
I vote Lead Foot for you. It looks super good when it's polished up and glossy.

Anyone know if it's possible to eliminate the 'lawyer' settings so you can do Google searches in motion with Android auto? So annoying that this turns off in motion.

The OP is stuck, 2 States away from home, with a louver hanging out of his bumper. I have to assume there isn't another dealership nearby, so perhaps the option to head down the road to another dealership doesn't exist. If that's the case, a phone call to Ford should go like this:. I bought a...
They don't like the margin or the hassle of warranty work. I've seen this before.
Techs are techs. They are trained and certified. They didn't show up from Grease Monkey with a couple of wrenches and ask to work on Raptors. They are fully qualified to handle that repair.

Same here in Calirado.. although I'm sure that's something that 'needs' to go away given the direction this state is going.

Yeah so they DON'T have the option of choosing not to honor Ford's warranty with your truck. I'd tell them they need to fix it since they are a Ford Service Center or I will run this right up the flag pole with Ford because I'm being denied service at one of their service centers. That's...
Read an article this morning on gen1 raptors holding their value. Sold on average for 101% MSRP after 3 years. Probably has a lot to do with location and availability of the truck as well.
