Thanks for the additional comments, guys. I'm going to grab a bar in about 6 weeks when I get done with some travel. I hear you about the cops, I just hate to give them an excuse. I removed my front license plate and holder and my neighbor warned me that he's been pulled over twice heading...

I was actually leaning towards a cheap light bar if I did this for sure. I didn't realize the grill stopped that much of the light. Those covers are nice, for sure. I do like to have the option to flip them on without having to remove the covers, but it sounds like I can just mount it...

Okay, so I'll readily admit this may be a really stupid idea but I have to ask about it. In short, I understand LED bars are illegal here in California unless covered when you're not offroad. I have a Raptor, and I know many have put 20-40" bars behind the grille. I want to do this, but maybe...

Don't know why this pic shows twice. Bug in the Tapatalk mobile app I suppose

Sounds fair enough! Hopefully this is just the first of many!!

Sounds like we're cut from the same cloth :-)

Ahhh.....that's got to kill the resale value

I'm hoping that's my net, maybe go higher and try to recoup some of it by selling the stock HU?

Thanks, CSG. I've read enough here to know you'd be the one to know for sure! Weird thing is Crutchfield, Amazon, etc seem to filter out all options when I say I've got the Nav. Any pointers or options you could suggest? I'm trying to keep my HU under $1k if possible and I'm no audiophile, do...

Guys, Very excited that I got my 2011 Raptor Screw last night. I've been hanging out here the last several weeks reading, searching, and trying to learn so I'd know just what I want to do to it when it arrives, and upgrading the speakers is a definite. I'd also like to replace the HU. I...

Fist pump! Just wanted to pop back into the thread to let everyone know my Raptor showed up last night!!! Kids love it, I love it, wife is scared of it, but loves that I love it! Thanks again to everyone here for the encouragement, but especially to Donna at All American Ford in NJ and Jason...

Just got word.....it's on the carrier! So fired up!!!!!

Since ya'll have been so helpful I wanted to provide an update. My Raptor is still sitting on the dealer lot waiting for a carrier to agree to pick it up. Thanks to the help of Donna (DILLIGAF here on FRF) I've been put in touch with a dealer accounts rep at Rite Way and he's been really...

I'll take a look at them as well. Funny thing is I was definitely even thinking geez, I wonder if I need to get it on a ship out of Boston headed for Port of Long Beach/LA.

I did try uShip first actually, but I got so many varied prices (from $1000 to $2200) and so many I couldn't find any info on it made me pause. I was even getting unsolicited text messages. Finally I tried to reach out to a company, and then learned some company had effectively posted they...

Guys - First, thanks so much for the replies. I'm sorry I didn't reply earlier, but for some reason I guess my notifications got switched to a weekly digest instead of instant as I indicated, so I didn't know these last several replies came in. Anyway, I really needed it, because in the...

Hey all, Well I was super fired up yesterday to find I'd moved from prospective Raptor owner to actual owner, but now I've got a problem. My truck is in NH about 90 minutes north of Boston and I've had at least one broker tell me they don't ship Raptors. I know they're delivered by car...

You are a rockstar. Thanks for sharing this!! Hope to connect with some of you guys in SoCal/AZ/NV soon! Of course I'll be the old man - 44 coming up!!

Usually South OC (Mission Viejo area), sometimes North San Diego.

As far as I know, yes. It's certified and only about 40K miles. Seems like it was treated well.

Thanks so much, all! Paperwork is supposedly being overnighted, so hopefully I'll be in the club mid-May!

Yeah, that's my concern. I know in the past when I bought vehicles they sometimes had a California emissions option. I suspect they've all gotten clean enough that they can pass a smog and DMV registration here, and maybe if that even exists today it is for cars sold new here? Anyone here...

Hey all, I'm excited to be (hopefully) joining the community soon and I've got a deposit on a 2011 Raptor located on the East Coast. I live in California, though, and I realized I just assumed all stock vehicles can pass emissions here....then I considered that as stock vehicles go a Raptor...

Thanks, but the wife made me promise I'd go with the Screw if I got rid of our SUV. I didn't know they did molten Orange but that sounds wicked!

Thanks, yeah looking like the miles will have to be higher. The 6.2 should last like 150k plus, yeah?
