    Gen 3 Windshield Replacement

    I've cracked 4 windshields on my 2015 F150 xlt. All were replaced by Safelite with the OEM SoundScreen. Last month I cracked the windshield on my Raptor!!!!! I was traveling cross country and it was a Sunday evening. I had no option but to continue to drive and watch the crack grow inch by...

    Dealer forgot oil cap during Oil Chane service

    I would do an oil change now and send a sample of the current oil to Blackstone-labs for a test. If it comes back contaminated, you have actual evidence to give the dealer and push for an extended powertrain warranty. If the oil report comes back clean, you have peace of mind.

    [Gen2] New Engine Price? Follow up on Blown Engine...

    This is a little off subject, but it ties in with the former owner saying he performed regular maintenance. When I do self-maintenance, I go to carfax and record the maintenance, along with uploading my receipts for parts. It goes a long way in assuring the next buyer that the maintenance was...

    Extended Warranty

    I bought the 10yr/125k premium care warranty and it did show up on my ford app. However, it no longer shows up on the app. Did they change the app, or did something change on just my account?

    Second thought on color choice

    Just get what YOU like! I got the Avalanche Gray (and not just because Gray is my last name). Graphic delete, too. Damn if every compliment I get is how awesome the color looks, but that’s just a bonus for me. I always buy the color I like. I’m the one living with it. I’ve purchased 17...

    Refurbished My Ugly Steering Wheel

    Tell me the cover came pre-perforated! If so, awesome job! If not, you’re Superman.

    AC making noise but not blowing

    I had this issue a half dozen times. See pic of the frozen lines. TSB was to reprogram two things (can’t recall the exact items, but I have the paperwork I could look up). I was highly skeptical, but it’s been 6 weeks and I’m still good. It’s been 90-100 degrees the past 2 weeks. It seems...

    What’s going on here? Middle mud flaps?

    I’m in NC. My Raptor has zero rust after 1 year and 13k miles. My 2015 F150 has zero rust after 9 years and 220k miles. My 2017 JKU Rubicon is a literal rust bucket with 80k miles on it.

    What’s going on here? Middle mud flaps?

    I have the same wheels and think they are bland, but I get a lot of compliments on them.

    Bed Cover Options?

    I got the Lomax folding in the flat black for my Raptor. I have the same model on my 2015 F150. That cover is really showing cosmetic wear, but it's been in the elements 24/7 for 9 years now. Functionally, it still works great. What I like about it: 1- Low profile. Not very noticeable. 2-...

    Where does your Gen 3 sleep at night?

    My belove Raptor is left outside on the driveway, along with the JKU and the old F-150. The wife's SUV and an ungodly amount of crap took over the garage. Your garage looks AWESOME! Please tell me that you have a 2nd garage that looks like my Hoarder's Shack garage? Mine is loaded with the...

    Hey Guys! First Raptor! Headlight Question?

    Your lights look just like mine. I have assumed the left dip is to keep the headlights off of oncoming traffic.
