    Suspension noise

    For what it’s worth - I traded my gen 2 due to the unresolved rattling suspension and bought a new ‘21 Gen 3 in March ‘22. Admittedly there is a bit of a muffled rattle in the front suspension on scrambled surfaces - running in sport mode does improve the stability minimizing the rattle with the...

    2023 and towing a boat

    I have a '21 Gen 3, and I tow a 24' boat w/ dry weight 5200 lbs. Add in 125+ gal of fuel, fishing gear, trailer, etc I figure I am right at the 8,200 lb limit. I'm towing 200 mile round trips 3-4 times per season. The sag is real, but hasn't impacted trailering stability. The Raptor runs...

    Timbren SES on a GEN 3?

    Interested in this input too.. I just traded Gen 2 for Gen 3 and will be towing 24' boat at about 7,000 lb total boat, motor, trailer weight. 2018 Gen 2 handled it fine without Timbrens, but the sag was evident. Thinking of adding the Timbrens on the Gen 3 after I check the sag this spring.

    Suspension noise

    Gen 2 owner here thinking of a Gen 3 because of these very issues in my 2018. I know next gen Fox shocks and rear coils in the Gen 3, but mine has been a rattle trap since 20K miles even with new Fox shocks installed just now at 50K miles - rattling louder than ever. Thinking Roush F150 or...

    Front Suspension Rattling Sound

    Checking to see if any conclusive findings to remedy the front suspension rattles. My 2018 stock SCREW has same, and dealership is advising replacing the stock Fox struts - worth a shot with just 48K over the road miles on the rig. But, the struts are on backorder. Anyone have a lead on the...

    Backfiring on downshift?

    Thanks RamseyF - do you agree there is a definite need to run premium gas in the Gen 2 Raptor's 3.5 for over the road driving? I've been on premium since about 5K miles to remedy repeated backfiring. The acceleration and hard braking just started over the weekend.

    Backfiring on downshift?

    Good insights; I found early in on my 2018 SCREW it'll backfire repeatedly on 'cheap' gas (< 93). This weekend though I've run into an issue of it backfiring at a near stop after strong acceleration and hard breaking - and only popping out of the right exhaust. Any ideas? Fixing to find this...

    It's Official, 2018 Without The Applique Are Stamped

    This is the exact tailgate configuration shown for the 2018 non applique in the Ford Build and Price app. The Delete Applique option on the 802A package didn't provide an updated 2018 version with the F150 stamp. I sent my salesperson a screen shot of both versions and I was assured the delete...

    Will I get tired of a Raptor?

    My choice was to keep my '10 SCREW Lariat w/ 170+K miles and buy a new mid-life crisis Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Recon 6 spd or to trade the SCREW on a new Raptor. I test drove 3 new Wranglers and then test drove a 2018 Raptor. EASY decision... New Magnetic SCREW Raptor on order being built on 4.7.
