    Checking in from TX with a $19,999.99 Gen 1(DFW)

    Thanks! Cars.com had it available under “Free Car-Fax report” when I saw the listing. Otherwise it would’ve cost me $44.99, not sure if any other VIN lookup gives it for cheaper. I have it printed out and laminated, keep it inside the glovebox and show it to friends and people that come up to...

    Anybody running the Cooper AT3 XLT

    Pics of these tires mounted on would be awesome if you could share! Not too many pics out there on Raptors, but from what I've seen, they look pretty good with the aggressive sidewall

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Yep and out of the tailgate, don’t mind them too much but some people it was a dealbreaker . Don’t think it looks too bad on Raptors

    Charging issues

    Is the battery under the warranty period? I would replace it, or pick up the Everlast batteries from Walmart. Batteries can fail and be defective, but it's pretty rare, but still possible

    Gen 1 front camera operation

    Hmm.. I haven't read about this issue with the Sync 3 upgrade, but here's some things I would try: Possible fix 1: Check Fuse 34 in your passenger compartment. For your 2013, this is responsible for both the front and rear cameras. Its a 10 amps. Check the fuse diagram here. Maybe it's not...

    Checking in from TX with a $19,999.99 Gen 1(DFW)

    Hah thanks! I honestly thought I'd never hear from them after I gave them that number. Sometimes it doesn't even feel real when I see it in my driveway And I hear y'all, I was just really excited to share the whole journey on how I ended up with the keys to a Raptor haha

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    Kept telling myself, "I'll write it later", typed out a whole novel in there!

    Checking in from TX with a $19,999.99 Gen 1(DFW)

    One more thing that I thought it would be really neat to share with y'all, it came with what I assumed was dealer installed dvd players in back of the head rests? Came with 2 remotes and a pair of headphones. I thought it was a neat thing that I haven't seen elsewhere. People love it. Can't wait...

    Checking in from TX with a $19,999.99 Gen 1(DFW)

    Been posting here and there after months of lurking, so here's my late introduction. I believe in love at first sight, because I remember the first time I saw that Molten Orange Ford with the black digital mud graphics F-150 SVT Raptor that was unveiled more than a decade ago. I was just a kid...

    Been looking for 10 years, finally bought one.

    Could be an opportunity to already make a story having to make a road trip back

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    The concern about rubbing just comes from me being overly cautious as I'm new to modifying trucks + off-roaders haha, this is my first performance vehicle that isn't a coupe, sedan or hatch. "True" forged is overkill for my use-case for 99% street road use, but the OEM beadlocks which I assume...

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    Hardest part is just finding those for sale and the asking price feels a bit too much for me. But I get it, they’re an iconic design and no longer in production. Last time I saw a full set for sale, they were powdered coated bronze/copper, going for $2k with some scuffs on eBay. I can find...

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    Decided to make a quick edit on what these wheels would look like once fitted on my Raptor. Tried to match the color I saw on photos as accurate as possible. A lot more visual references for the KMC Hatchet (top) than the Black Rhino Voll (bottom). Any thoughts between which of the two to go?

    Welcome! I'm pretty fresh too. You got any pics from the listing? You're gonna love it

    Lightest road tire rim combo opinion

    Welp decided to throw this in here instead of creating a new thread since we dug this thread from the cementary. I copied a spreadsheet from the Gen 2 section regarding lightweight 17" options, which was last updated in 2020. Made it into a link, zebra color scheme to make it easier to read...

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Def worth the price tag. They also sell a smoked version of these. https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/09-14-f-150-morimoto-xb-smoked-led-taillights-pair.97725/ I think it'd look even nicer if it had the red outline like the OEM Gen 3's

    What did u do to your raptor today?

    Installed about 2 months ago or so. These are the Morimoto XB LED Tail Lights; Black Housing; Red Lens. I love the OEM+ look. Gives much better visibility when reversing. The illuminating effect on the ground from the side of the truck is a pretty nice and useful effect too. I also have the...

    Gen1 Tire & Wheel Picture Thread (upgraded) - post em up!

    Beautiful! By weight difference, do you mean these are heavier than your stock setup? I currently have KO2s with the stock alloy wheels - been thinking about going for a newer OEM beadlock upgrade vs. a lighter 25mm offset option.

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    That's where my train of thought was going. My personal philosophy when it comes to modding, I always try to find something that is functional and is additive to my vehicle's performance, AND looks good enough to stare back at it. If I do end up going the aftermarket route, I'd be more...

    FourSyncTech Sync 3 Upgrade Kits

    With my luck with Visible's (Verizon) service, it really comes in handy having the nav add-on. I was making a 2-hour trip to a new destination and my phone decided to lose connection AND overheat. Went ahead and parked at a Walmart, plugged in the address and I was back in business while my...

    FourSyncTech Sync 3 Upgrade Kits

    From a UX perspective, capacitive touch is a much better and familiar experience especially when you're on the road and you want to be confident your inputs are detected effortlessly. You're correct, there's a plethora of available background options whether you want an OEM look, pretty...

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    Thanks, that's helpful to know, are you still running those wheels on your Raptor? Writing down my findings in hopes to help other Gen 1 owners, I'm quoting this thread just for visibility and convenience. It's a bit old, and new wheels have came out since. I didn't mention in my post, but...

    FourSyncTech Sync 3 Upgrade Kits

    I rented a 2019 Gen 2 Raptor for 2 days before buying my Gen 1 Raptor. I love everything about my Gen 1, but there's no denying that the Sync 2 that it came with lags behind the Sync 3/4 display and software. My two biggest gripes with the Sync 2 unit was: incredibly unresponsive tactile input...

    Lack of aftermarket options with stock offset?

    These are looking to be my best option going w/ stock offset, I originally assumed the 37" rims would be different spec wise but that doesn't seem to be the case. Did find a few examples on eBay. I did find a thread on running 0mm offset on stock suspension, but it was regarding a Gen 2. It...
