    Here are the Raptor engine specs...

    No kidding! The graphics are crazy expensive. The carbon fiber is danged expensive though

    Good dealers in Texas?

    I that case, congratulations! Hopefully, they'll schedule your build date soon.

    Good dealers in Texas?

    Thank you! I think I'll likely have to expand my search outside of Texas and just remain patient. And we all make dumb financial mistakes(at least I hope we're not the only two. Haha) we just need to make sure we don't make the same mistake twice. Good luck to you too! Keep us posted if...

    Good dealers in Texas?

    I'm definitely not. I'm just looking around right now and am not quite sure if I'm ready to move from my 2014 to a 2017. I got my 2014 at invoice and still love driving it so it'll be hard for me to justify even paying MSRP. I'm in no hurry but am curious to find a dealer close to Houston that...

    Good dealers in Texas?

    I put in a call to them yesterday and they claimed there were a few folks that have already ordered Raptors. I've spoken to them twice and have yet to get a price. They didn't even ask what options I wanted during the first call. I'm assuming that is a bad sign but maybe they'll call me this...

    Switching out exhuast...MRPB, Black Widow or Dirty Deeds

    That's great to hear. I'm still trying to figure out which one I'll go with when I have the time to get one installed. Thanks for the reply.

    Switching out exhuast...MRPB, Black Widow or Dirty Deeds

    Hay farman, did you install that race venom? If so, which did you go with(I think there's a 250 and 300 series if my memory is correct) and how did it sound? Thanks!

    Got my VIN and delivery date today!

    I think I received my VIN at least a month before my truck was built.

    local dealer... 36 orders

    That's an interesting point. I didn't even think of that angle.

    local dealer... 36 orders

    I'm not sure how accurate this is but I saved an image of the 2014 production volumes by option and region. It shows that 22,409 were produced. The breakdown is 18,148 for US, 765 for Canada, 901 for Mexico, and 2,595 for export. Canada really got hosed. I'm surprised Mexico received more than...

    local dealer... 36 orders

    That makes total sense now. When I initially read the post, I was pretty surprised by such a large number but this clears that up. Good luck to you Canadians on getting your orders filled(not saying they won't be filled but it just may take more time to fill). I thought it was a PITA here in...

    local dealer... 36 orders

    36 deposits is insane. I live in Houston and have heard that some of the dealerships around here have maybe 10 allocations(give or take a few based on the dealership's sales volume). I wonder how long it'll take to fill those 36? Maybe out into 2018...

    Good dealers in Texas?

    I tried Ryan Ford but they wanted like 5k over MSRP(can't remember the specifics, it's been a busy month). I don't think I spoke to Curtis. It would be worth it to try working with Curtis though. As SterlingE55 said, I've read good things about Kyle at Chastang for the 2017s. I happened to...

    Raptor Dealers Selling Near Invoice (Gen 2)

    And, the Gen 1 list was compiled over 4 or so years. This list has only been up for a few months leading up to the Gen 2 release. There seem to be deals out there but the majority want MSRP or MSRP+ADM.

    Raptor Dealers Selling Near Invoice (Gen 2)

    There are folks that have actually secured invoice or near invoice deals. I think those that have those deals have a relationship with the dealer or just got a great deal so they're keeping the names of those dealerships to themselves. One dealership that made the list and was then removed...

    Standard audio on base raptor

    That is correct. Sync 3 only comes with 801A or 802A

    Raptor Dealers Selling Near Invoice (Gen 2)

    Negative. Invoice and MSRP are thousands of dollars apart. Most dealers are selling around MSRP for this iteration of the Rappy.

    Standard audio on base raptor

    Check out this thread. http://www.fordraptorforum.com/f260/complete-gen-2-raptor-information-thread-47473/ Bluetooth audio and phone connectivity will definitely be standard with the base package but Sync 3 appears to be only available with 801A or 802A. You could also check out...

    Installed a Black Widow Muffler

    Awesome! Keep us posted on how it works out. I'm on the fence about the 250 or the widow maker. Skrape at Black Widow suggested the widow maker.

    GEN 2 Raptor power/torque release

    Is there any risk of breaking anything with tunes that add so much HP? I've never owned a turbocharged vehicle so I don't have a clue. The inexpensive HP gain may be another reason to upgrade from my 2014. I'm still on the fence though.

    new brake pads

    This is probably a stupid question but would I get improved braking performance by simply replacing OEM pads with higher quality than OEM or would I only benefit from upgrading the pads and rotors? Mine are beginning to squeal. I need to check them out to see how much pad I have left...

    GEN 2 Raptor power/torque release

    I came across this page Muzi Ford's website even though I was looking to find the height of the 2017 Raptor. I assume the HP number is solely based on rumors but who knows... New 2017 Ford Raptor Price & Release Date | At Muzi Ford Serving Boston, Newton, Waltham and Norwood The page states...

    Rappy graphics shipping?

    When I got mine a few years ago, the carrier crushed the hell out of the shipping tube and my hood graphic was pretty damn wrinkled. I understand that shit happens(especially when we're talking about shipping things) so I wasn't really bothered but it looked pretty bad. But what do I know. I...

    GEN 2 Pricing Discussion

    I agree with being patient. A few weeks ago, I had the hankering to order a 2017 but I'm really enjoying my 2014. I may entertain the idea of buying one next year but we'll see.
