I just purchased a 2021-22 Raptor (not sure what year it will be considered) from a dealership in Georgia expected to arrive in December. Will it pass California emissions? Not sure if this has been covered on this board yet. Thanks in advance!!!

New vehicles sold will have a CARB compliance sticker or say "not for sale in the state of California." The sticker is normally under the hood IIRC, hope this helps.

My AAA rep looked for the CARB sticker when I purchased an out of state car. I also understand that CA requires a certified weight certificate in order to register the Raptor in CA.

You make the DMV appointment for a vehicle inspection and they check basic safety crap and look under the hood for the CA emissions sticker. All Raptors are 50 state compliant and CA compliant, according to the Ford engineers I spoke with when purchasing my Raptor from Arkansas. I ended up moving before registering in CA though, thank the Lord.
