    Raptor Sightings/Spotting (on the road or parked)

    Blue Scab EB on 80 yesterday, just outside of Reno. Driving the wife's FX4 towing a effing U haul, so I didnt wave or anything..... Why do I allways see Raptors when I am not driving mine?

    Raptor Sightings/Spotting (on the road or parked)

    Black one parked on A St here in Antioch CA. It was backed in, so I couldnt see if it was a Screw or Scab. Either way -it surprised the hell out of me.

    USB randomness

    I have a '10 (no nav, MFT) and it will randomly switch from the USB to the radio. No rhyme or reason. Shut it off, come back, turn the key on and find it switched to the radio. It never goes from the radio to USB though. I haven’t bothered to mention it to the dealer because we all know how well...

    Rear Shocks Stolen

    Yeah, notice how un busy they got when somone threatened them? All the cops in CA are for is revenue collection. Good money can be made writing tickets. My former employer in CA got hit at least every 6 months at an average loss of $5K per theft. Cops wouldnt even take a report. Told us to...

    Front License Plate Bracket??

    Wish like hell I had your problem. Here in NV if the mfg doesnt supply a bracket /mount you dont have to run a front plate. Of course my dealer was johnny on the spot and installed mine....

    How many ask you "the question"?

    Yeah, I dont understand why one would buy a Raptor and never take it off road-esp here in NV, we have more places to go than you can think of. I met one owner and he looked at me like I was nuts when I asked him what trails he had been out on & if he wanted to do a run sometime. I will never...

    8" of snow and.....

    Yep-no recovery points, your staying where you are. I tend to not pull random people out because most of the time you get involved in the original reason why they are stuck - poorly prepared vehicles & no driving skill. I have the same problem here, all the dumbshits with their bald tires or...

    Norcal Snow run - 2/23

    Make sure you bring your recovery straps & if anyone has one a comealong. One slip off the packed snow into a roadside ditch can make for a lousy day. Dont ask how I know this, but having a Jeep with a winch along made things a lot better.

    Nevada fun run 8/30 to 9/2 2013

    Sparks is totally out as a meeting place over labor day- think of times square at new years. Fernley has a couple of truck stops right off the freeway with lots of room, fuel & food before it's hit the dirt time. PM me your route thoughts & I will narrow things down.

    Nevada fun run 8/30 to 9/2 2013

    You will never get a room at the Nugget Labor Day Weekend, the rib cook off is based there & Sparks is stuffed. Unless your going to the cookoff, stay out of Sparks-traffic is nuts, the place is insane. Maybe the Grand Sierra, big lot, lots of room. ---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ----------...

    Nevada fun run 8/30 to 9/2 2013

    We did something like this last Aug. The hotels downtown can present parking issues due to low clearance parking garages. Circus circus has out door parking availble, but a bunch of us stayed at the Silver Legacy & the Raptor fits in their garage. Labor Day Weekend is also the weekend for the...

    new owner in the bay area

    Welcome, you are 3 for 3. Right vehicle, right forum, right color.
  18. Nv Guy

    Hopefully soon to be new owner.

    Welcome. If GM made something that could keep up with a Raptor off road, then there would be a need to convince him. A test drive = Raptor purchase. The only real choice you have to make is what color Raptor you want.

    Hey guys and . . gals? I'm new. :)

    Welcome- Thanks for your service. Good job on the Raptor, looks great.

    Raptor takes jump too fast

    This idiot needs a trophy truck instead of destroying Raptors. Better yet do us all a favor and tell him how cool Subarus or Hondas are- let him destroy something else.
