FTO. Would you kindly shed some light on what might be causing the cam phaser issue to recur on my 2018 Raptor? Build date was Aug 2017. Cam phasers replaced Aug 2020 at approx 40k 21B10 done Aug 2021 Rattle recurring June 2023 @ 80k Oil changes always done by Ford at 5k intervals I’ve got...

Adding to the knowledge base. Had the opportunity to run the fuel down to 6 miles to empty. Sweating a bit since I dropped a buddy off at his house which is 20 miles off pavement as I was watching the rapid decrease of the miles to empty. Anyway the fill up took 34 gallons. So at least in...

Just noticed that Batteries Plus has a 20% off code good through Dec 31st 2022.

Picked up my truck from the hotel parking lot in San Antonio to find the drivers door jimmied. Handle broken, lock cylinder exposed, damage to the Xpel wrap, and a very small dent. Not much missing inside. Anybody know of a body shop that’ll put a passenger side door handle on the drivers...

After the reprogram for cam phaser rattle the Raptor shifts smooth in sport mode, like a circa 1980’s Towncar...the ones with that huge trunk. Took the Raptor from stopped to low triple digits this am….smooth:) Might be coincidental, might be real. I’ll report back either way. Heading down to...

Have any of you found or installed an anti theft device for a catalytic converter on a Gen 2? Can’t always be near the Raptor with the shotgun to prevent a-holes from thieving. Thanks guys and gals.

Are there any Black Friday deals on a Kratos jack? Thx.

I added the dual battery setup in the early summer of 2017 to my 2018 Raptor. It's been working really well for me. This winter I added a ZAMP 180 watt folding system to keep the battery charged when I stay in the same spot. Here's what I used for the dual battery setup: Hellroaring solid...

My 2018 Raptor likely has the cam phaser rattle. I’ve seen pictures of the cab/bed being lifted off to do the repair. I wired in BD backup lights to aux 6 and the trailer hitch plug. I routed the wires down from engine bay and along the passenger side frame. I used rosette clamps screwed...

Took a local BP officer for a ride through the desert in my Raptor. The next evening I found a piece of greasewood in the sidewall: I hate to lose one like this:( Lucky me that I run a set of six tires on wheels.

So...I'm renting a Ford Expedition this week in CHI/Madison...the 10 speed tranny on this rig shifts limousine smooth. A world of difference between the EXP and the Raptor in the shifts.

Help me decide...I’ve been running without radar for decades now. I used to run an Escort back in the day...think double nickel speed limits (55mph for you millennials). The radar detector actually caused me to drive slower, increased my angst as well as my driving times - think 45k to 50k...

This video from TFL popped up on my feed this morning. Please excuse if it’s already been posted. https://www.tfltruck.com/2019/09/2021-ford-raptor-prototype-here-is-a-closer-look-at-the-real-coil-suspension/ Now if they would reroute the exhaust for better clearance, put in high clearance...

Thanks for everyone’s help with the color choice of the truck...I’m going with VB. Now on to the seats. I’m a lifelong cheapskate on the one hand. On the other hand I can afford to spend some additional $$ on seats for the 2020. Black leather seats. I really like the way that the black...

I decided to go to Blue for the 2020 Raptor. What do you guys like VB or PB? I saw both side by side at a dealership in Fargo...the PB looked a little “dirty” to me in the late afternoon light. The VB was more vibrant. In full light both looked great.

I’m selling my 2018 Magnetic and have a 2020 Velocity Blue on order. I keep second guessing myself on switching the color to VB. They both look incredible. My question to the group: have any of you gotten tired of the VB? Have any of you gone from Magnetic to VB? Happy with the choice? Thanks.

Located in Minneapolis, MN. 15 minutes from airport. Will split an airfare for FRF member. TX truck, has never seen winter. Excellent condition. Clean title. Loaded. All options except: No graphics. No carbon. No orange upholstery. Adult driven. Meticulously maintained. Never seen salt. -...

What are you guys paying for 2020’s? How is your truck optioned?

Pano sunroof on my 2018 with 30k miles decided not to open. It tries but hits a hard stop right away. Does this mean I need a whole new pano, a new track, or will an adjustment work? I love the big view. Will likely not get one on my next Raptor. I spend a lot of time on unpaved roads.

Took this pic just east of Fort Stockton. Had maybe a 15 mph headwind/crosswind.

I’m planning on replacing my 2018 Raptor with a 2020 Raptor. How do you guys recommend I sell my 2018? 2018, all options except for graphics, carbon, and orange accents. Very good condition (complete Xpel wrap when I bought it), never seen salt, 30,000 miles when I sell it this summer. I paid...

Anyone else having this issue? I spend a lot of time driving off pavement in West TX. Even with windows closed and recirc on, the interior including the seat belts, gets covered in dust. The seat belts then stop retracting. I took it to the dealer last summer and they cleaned the belts off...

Would someone please recommend a decent Ford service center in El Paso? I’m flying from EP and leaving the Raptor parked there for a week. I need to have the most recent recall done as well as have a minor rattle identified. Thanks guys.
