I ordered the step on my 2020. What is the weight capacity of the tailgate step? I’m 6’5” and built like a lineman, weight is currently 320# but on the decline. Either way, my wife is 5’2” and will appreciate it.

I think Ford will screw it up, so I ordered my Raptor instead.

Order placed 6/12, maybe I’ll have it by Labor Day.

I have these mats in our 2015 Touareg and used to run them in the wife’s Volvo C30 Polestar. I like them far better than WeatherTech; better coverage, not as slippery, and they stick to the carpet better.. The rubberized Kagu mats hold up very well, the only downside is that they rivet the...

Most non deck over trailers are 83” max between the fenders, the Raptor total width is listed at 86.3”. I don’t have one to measure the width from tire to tire, but I’d guess it’s over 83” with stock wheels. Regardless of width, the max load for the U-haul version is 5290# and the Raptor...

I tend to keep my trucks for a while, I’ve has my Bronco for 23 years and my diesel truck for 12 years. I’m going to warranty the 2020 Raptor for 8/125 and will plan on keeping it for probably the first 7 years of that so I can sell it with warranty left if I sell it. I could also see keeping...

Yes, but I’m around 89,000. Mid range AWD model with self drive for $57K. It’s the first electric vehicle that makes sense to me for functionality and cost, so I wanted to show Tesla that there are people interested. I’m guessing maybe 10% of the people who put in preorders will actually...

Not mine, but might be of interest to someone. https://phoenix.craigslist.org/nph/pts/d/sedona-ford-raptor-add-front-rear-bumper/7144181283.html

I see them doing something hybrid, which makes the truck disposable at some point in the future when the tech is out of production. If they can make me a Raptor that gets 25 mpg and goes 0-60 in 4 seconds then I’m interested, otherwise I’ll be figuring out how to install a long travel...

I plan on using it for an iPad mount, but I want two arms for stability in the rough stuff so it won’t easily tilt back and forth from driver to passenger. Maybe I can set up different Ram balls to set the angle differently.

I just noticed that you can order a Diamondback cover from their site in a flat aluminum (not diamond plate) without the cleats installed (shipped loose if I wanted to install later). I think it’s a better aesthetic. I still hate their billboard across the back.

My wheels of choice for the new Leadfoot Scab are the Roost in bronze, too bad they’re only available in 0 instead of +18 or something to keep them under the flares.

How did you confirm that your order was accepted/confirmed? I ordered on 6/12 and the dealer didn’t mention any potential allocation issues, I don’t know hoe many Raptors they sell, but it’s a small town dealer so probably not a bunch.

Folding in the mirrors isn’t buying you that much space over the width of the fenders. Sounds like a very tight garage. I’ve got a 16 foot door and will have to share that bay with my wife’s SUV. I think the tow mirrors on my Dodge 2500 stick out farther than the Raptor mirrors, but I won’t...

I haven’t used a slider in my cars or SUV. I’m thinking I won’t need a slider in the Raptor. I was looking at the Diamondback cover that the front of the bed opens up on, so the fridge would go in the drivers side front corner if I cannot put it in the cab. I’m 6’5”, so I should be able to...

2.5# Halotron for $87...

White is certainly cooler than black in the desert, but I think a white wrapped roof on a Leadfoot truck would look dumb. My main concern is keeping the UV off the paint long term. My last two trucks have had the paint on the roof bubble within 8 years. I do my part to wash and wax them, but...

46.5 pounds for my 37 quart, so maybe 70 pounds with tiedowns and food.

I ordered a Scab 802A. Does it come with a factory sub, under the seat or behind the seat? and if so can someone post a picture? I'm trying to plan out how I'm going to setup things in the cab vs the bed and a speaker enclosure will potentially make a difference.

I don't believe the Bronco will ever arrive, they've been teasing it for a year FFS. I don't think even Ford knows what the plan is after this "launch". I was holding out to see the new Bronco before ordering a Raptor, but on the Ranger platform I expect it to be a disappointment for me. I'm...

That's probably the plan. I'd like to avoid the additional weight of a second battery if possible. I was also thinking a smaller AGM second battery for the fridge rather than the Group 31 at 70 pounds. I would prefer to mount the second battery down on the frame rather than in the bed or cab...

My current ARB setup survives in my car trunk on the hottest days that Phoenix can dish out, but the second battery is a Group 31 AGM. In my 2017 Subaru Outback and my 2011 VW Touareg the stock battery wasn’t enough when using the stock 12v plug in the cargo area. I didn’t wire either of those...

Do you think a second battery is not needed? I live out of my 37 quart during the work week in very hot Phoenix, I was planning on needing a second battery like I have in my current car. I would love to put the fridge in the cab, but I don’t think there will be space in the Scab I ordered. I...

I was thinking about getting the hood and roof wrapped in flat black for glare reduction and sun protection in AZ. I saw a white Raptor with those two areas done and it looked good. AZ is brutal on horizontal services.

Man I don’t care for their logo on the back. I wonder if they would be open to building me one without it.
