Pretty much as easy as that! That’s a nice gift. Some tips to make it more effective: -Use it with a pressure washer -Get quick disconnect attachments so you don’t have to thread your hose every time you use it (unless you’re leaving the hoses attached) -You only really need the DI water for the...

Depends. Some people will just foam the truck, let it dwell, rinse it off with de-ionized water and blow dry. This doesn't take care of all the dirt and spots, but it's good enough to get the dust off. Keys to success are: 1) De-ionized water (so you don't leave hard water spots), 2) don't towel...

Nice setup. Ya, I didn’t buy from OG but pieced together some of the main components he recommeds. I need to get a hose reel and a faucet in the garage. My previous cars have all been white. Moving to black has been an adjustment, but it does look incredible when it’s clean.

Agreed. The “best” protection for paint would be a paint protection film. But assuming you don’t want to spend $6-10k, ceramic coating is the next best. As mentioned, a ceramic coating isn’t really protective from scratches. It’s primarily a way to keep your truck cleaner for longer and make...

The water de-ionizer is new for me and I haven’t fully trusted an air dry yet, but sounds like it’s done a good job for you. Glad to hear it.

Took advantage of some cloudy Southern California weather to get a mid day wash in. Here’s a glimpse into my weekly exterior wash routine. Truck has CarPro CQuartz UK 3.0 Ceramic Coating (will probably paint correct and re-apply this winter) Karcher K1700 pressure washer with MTM gun, Cobrajet...

Agreed, that range from a dealer sounds right. If you’re open to it, try some California dealers who are paying top dollar. Private party, you could ask for $68-71k and probably get some bites.

Train horn. The most tasteful of upgrades

Wow, never would have thought of this. Thanks for the warning. My dog uses the steps to get in, which he does very slowly. It’s actually comical to watch him do this, like he’s climbing a ladder. He’s a 1.5 year old GSP who can jump a 5-foot wall with ease, but when it comes to getting in a...

Good deal indeed. Nice job!

I’m in Southern California as well. After months of searching, I picked up my truck private party in Arizona a couple weeks ago. 2018 fully loaded SCREW, minus recaros and rear decals. I think I can tell you every single Raptor for sale on all the major sites, haha. Best advice I have is that...

A couple of good old CT70’s

Picked up the truck. Love it so far! Photo as requested.

I agree with this. If you’re willing to spend a day or two in the garage, the consumer grade ceramic coatings are excellent. If you don’t have as much time, there are some great spray sealants out there that have excellent self cleaning properties. Beadmaker isn’t the most hydrophobic or longest...

Here’s the pup. Will add the truck photos on Friday!

Picking up my truck this week if everything goes as planned! My bird dog specifically requested a Raptor - wants to get from the highway to birds a little quicker...

K&N might be, but I have a truck coming in from out of state with an AFE. Need to put something on to get me through smog.

Any luck on this? I’m in need of a stock intake for a 2018 to get through smog. Also in So Cal.
