This is all very interesting to me for a number of reasons: forums are great to hear about common problems, issues and to have group input when you have a query. With my CTSV the forum is very similar with the exception of the "why would you do that to your car (in the Raptor's case truck)?" People are all about power, performance and looks with complimentary input pretty much exclusively for those with CTSVs both old gen and the last iteration, mine (love it). Beyond that, this Raptor forum has a generally heavy negative commentary for those that dare to make a physical change to the appearance/performance of "THEIR" Raptors primarily in regards to adding a lift (but not exclusively).
I bought my 2019 Raptor lifted by the dealer with a 100k warranty on the lift alone but includes the drivetrain as well. I want it for a specific reason; off road camping with a custom short bed Lance 650 camper piggyback. I have no desire to really use the Baja drive mode as intended but love off road mud and a bit of rock climbing, that will work I'd say a bit better than a stock Raptor.
I first posted pics of my truck when I signed up for this site, no negatives and a gentleman welcomed me kindly. After reading the negative comments here on the lifted Raptors, I think I will concede to the haters and cancel my account (I'm guessing I won't be missed, lol). One last pic for the haters for I have done a lot to prep her for the camper from: 2500lb rear leaf's and performance mods (geez, am a CTSV guy) for the little 3.5L born from the Great Ford GT and of course exhaling with proper exhaust;-)
