Been exploring the idea of upgrading the radio in the truck and not really a fan of the Tesla style options out there. Is there an aftermarket upgrade that only replaces the unit with a slightly larger screen and has sync support?

They're still posting on the gram as of 5 days ago. Sad to see this happen, I like their stuff, but it's all to common with any custom fab shop.

I'm a sucker for trim levels, bells and whistles, and special editions of many things, especially vehicles. I went from a Civic to a Raptor because we needed a truck of some kind to haul things, and I only really drive during the winter months since I'm on a motorcycle every chance I get...

In the Harley world, the 2017 touring oil pumps were causing some bikes to sump and it took 4 or 5 revisions to finally get it put to rest in the 2020 MY.

Interesting, I didn't know this. Apparently I found a unicorn.

Company I work for has some mines in Chino and Tyrone; and a refining plant in El Paso. Maybe I'll need to take a work trip and just so happen to drive the truck!

Looks like fitting the truck in that garage is one heck of a tight squeeze.

Nothing exciting but I was easily able to program the newer style key I ordered. Now just need to get the physical key cut.

The owners manual says to use 87 or higher, so I use 87.

I appreciate the vote of confidence, I'm usually full of dumb questions just ask my boss.

Just going off of Tasca, they seem to sell just the sliding window. It's not bothering me enough yet to replace it or anything, just not a sports guy. Sliding Glass - Ford (ML3Z2542052A) Might go the compound route next.

Took it out for it's first extended road trip to nearly Kansas City and back within the same day for a family hospice visit, total of 617 miles through Missouri's "wonderful" backroads and nearly 11 hours drive time. Did get a good 19 MPG average through out the trip.

I've tried 3 rounds of goo gone but again, there is no sticker residue or anything on the glass. It almost seems as if the tint its self has the foozball team logo burned in or something. Can't see it from the inside looking out, and the only way to see it is when the reflection hits it just...

Mine are so beat up they're falling apart in my pocket. So in my mind, why not spend a little more and get the updated hardware instead of just buying a replacement case?

NEW OEM 2017-2022 FORD F150 RAPTOR SMART KEY KEYLESS REMOTE KEY FOB 164-R8185

More super exciting things happening, ordered a newer style key fob for my 2017 to ditch the easily broken suppository style fob.

I've got both of these on hand and will give it a try, thanks.

Probably being overly nitpicky, but a couple weeks after I purchased my Raptor I noticed a strange outline take shape over the rear glass. It seems that if I don't keep the truck spotless and let it succumb to the gravel, corn dust and pollen in the air of the Midwest, I get a Sportball Team...

I'd take it to a different dealership.

Used Cerekote's Trim Coat Kit to restore the faded black on the windshield and hood vents. Wish I would have taken a before/after pic, really brought it back.

changed transfer case fluid. Exciting stuff.

and of course it didn't. still works though.

Opened it up and cleaned it out. We'll see if it stays dry.

Thanks for the information. Coming from the Harley world, BD is highly respected.
