    Yes they are at peak torque, that is different than peak power

    Looking at Raptor R .

    Nope, peak torque occurs at a much lower, in this case, than peak power. At peak power the 24 will be making more torque than the 23. Only at 5252 rpm does hp and torque equal each other.

    2025 Keypad Options

    This is not what I was expecting, it’s even better. Here is the wired keypad for a Bronco Sport I mentioned yesterday. It was installed today as an add-on to our “bar car.”

    2025 Keypad Options

    There are two listed by Ford that I know of. A wireless one that simply mimics a key fob and can be mounted nearly anywhere with 3M tape. There is also a wired keypad that requires drilling and configuration with the BCM. We are having the wired one installed in our “bar car” ‘24 Bronco Sport...

    Nice truck, we’ve had all three generations as well. Nice touch with the decal delete and leaving Raptor, looks very nice in green. My wife just bought an R the same color and we love it. The dealer ordered it full graphics delete, kinda miss the Raptor name.

    New Gen 1 Raptor Owner in Bay Area CA

    Probably just a large zener diode that clamps and shorts excess voltage to ground. Snake oil . . . Your ex is probably much more useful.

    first post, first Raptor ('25, Shelter Green 37, Bay Area CA)

    Nice truck! Welcome to the Raptor family from 800 miles north of you. We also had a shelter green cousin of your truck follow us home recently. After looking at all the color options in person, that green was our choice.

    Official 2025 Raptor R Order & Delivery Thread

    The dealership we do business with had a Shelter green R just arrive. We looked at it thought was OK, it was a rare sunny day in December in the PNW. With that in mind we looked at all the colors available in the Raptor as the dealer has tons of trucks. After looking closely and afar at all...

    R starting issues...

    My wife’s R had a bad starter button from the factory. Only start if you pushed the left side, nothing anywhere else. New button and all is well.

    Raptor R realistic fuel economy expectations

    My wife’s R has been averaging 11.7, a bit more with me, a bit less when she drives it. Still too new to know for sure but it’s on track to get 2 mpg less than the 3.5 Gen 2 it replaces, not too bad in my book.

    Raptor R - I want one, but when should I buy one?

    I took my wife for a ride to look at an R, she had no knowledge of them. She had owned a gen 1 and a Roush upfitted Gen 2 was her current vehicle. It took less then 3 minutes of driving and she says I’ll take this truck.

    PNW Raptors

    New to the Forum but my wife and I have had all three generations of Raptor here in the PNW. She just got a ‘24 R about 3 weeks back. We live in Snohomish WA, love to hear about local adventures.

    New 24', oil smell after driving

    F450 Platinum is my “car” but I sometimes get to drive Jane’s R. My toy is a RR Cullinan Black Badge. I can’t imagine cold would make the smell worse but it might prolong the cooking off of the hot surface contamination that I attribute to the smell.

    New 24', oil smell after driving

    My wife’s Raptor R had that smell for a couple of hundred as it diminished over time. The first 50-100 were pretty stinky, now nothing with 1500+
