Buying New 2019 Tomorrow. Are there firmware/software updates I should ensure dealer installs?

I heard 32F and 28R when I was at Raptor Assault for general on/off road use. The only issue is TPMS warnings which is easily corrected with ForScan.

Congrats! Make sure to adjust your tire pressure. Here’s a cut and paste from Raptor Assault:


Raptor air pressure



Instructors at Raptor assault asked the group "how many of you have the rear end kick out on bumps in normal everyday driving?". The majority of the class answered back w/ resounding yes and then they simply said, your PSI is too high in the rear.


We had a good discussion on tire psi. Here's my notes from the class:

-Raptors ship from factory at 48psi and should be aired down by the dealership upon delivery (which never happens)

-Ford procedure document state 36psi all around

-The instructors prefer 38f and 34r psi for normal driving

-Ford engineers prefer 34f/28r psi for off road driving WITH highway driving

-Ford engineers prefer 28f/22r psi for pure off road driving (no highway at all)

Many thanks! My tire pressure is indeed at mid 40s all the way around.
