    Rear Facing Ambers...Thanks WSI

    Has anyone mounted the Whelen Vertex inside the third brake light housing? I'm thinking I don't use the OEM cargo lights and that would be a good spot for the Vertex's to be installed.

    The 1¢ and $3 Door Rattle Fixes

    I've used electrical tape on my latches for a year and a half. I tried adjusting the latches every which way, I could never get rid of the rattle. The tape is good for 3 to 4 months before it needs replacing. The 1" Gorilla tape lasts a bit longer.

    Whining noise coming from something belt driven

    My 2010 6.2 (57k miles) seems to have an intermittent alternator whine. The whine gets louder when the fans engage. It's not temperature sensitive, it does it no matter what the temperature is. I have an extended warranty, I guess I'll be taking it to the dealer when it gets a bit worse. I'd...

    Load Rating

    I carried a pallet of pellets 40 miles on stock rear springs. It wasn't sitting on the stops, but it was close.

    A Ford tech's take on "THE CLUNK" (THE ONE and ONLY CLUNK THREAD)

    The driveshaft on my truck was not included in the TSB for this clunk. I pulled the driveshaft and lubed the splines with high quality grease. It's been clunk free for 12k miles so far. It took less than 30 minutes to fix in my driveway....

    Dumbass locked keys in his truck with it running!

    My doors lock on my 2010 when I need to leave it running. Just hit the 7/8 and 9/0 buttons at the same time on the keyless entry after you close the door.

    Gas Grade...

    If that is the case, why does Ford state that the 6.2 makes 10HP more on 91 than it does on 87 octane? I could care less about the negligible cost increase running 91 octane and the +10 HP, all I know is that my Raptor would occasionally ping on 87 during the first 6 months I owned it. I've...

    Gas Grade...

    I can't say for sure, but I'll guess it's Texas. This site lists pure gas stations and octane ratings for most; http://pure-gas.org/index.jsp?stateprov=TN

    Gas Grade...

    I run 91 octane and notice a small increase in milage and performance over 87. On a recent out of state trip I ran several tankfulls of ethanol free 93 octane and WOW, big difference over the 91 octane with ethanol here at home. I buy gas anywhere, seems to run the same on any brand.

    De-Badging

    No holes behind the Raptor emblem, might be one behind the F150 emblem.

    N Dakota gas prices

    I only run super in the Raptor, it seems to run better and in the grand scheme of things it's not that much more. I'm not sure if all super is ethanol free, but most the of the pumps I filled at stated the super didn't have ethanol.

    N Dakota gas prices

    It wasn't the overall prices I was commenting on, it was the price discrepancy between the three grades of gas. I've driven through all the contiguous states now (N Dakota being the last) and I've never seen gas priced like that. Has anyone else seen gas priced like this in another state?

    5792 mile road trip!

    I spent just over $1600 in gas for this trip. Not too bad really. I hauled stuff there and back, and had up to 4 passengers on some legs of the trip. Gas ranged from a low of $3.19 in parts of Oklahoma all the way to $4.69 in Chicago. I ran super the whole trip, which was 91 octane in most...

    Stupid Things People Say About Raptors

    Maybe not stupid, but at this gas station a guy asked me, "I bet you don't pass too many of these?" Lol

    One Word... Deer!

    I almost tagged this one in Montana, I just happened to be taking a pic (at 80 mph) when he crossed in front of me. It was as close as I need to get to one of those car killing vermin.
