Hi guys, just wanted to introduce myself. I’m Lukas and live in Idaho, I’ve always been a sucker for sports cars and my latest one was a Porsche 911 from 2022. Loved the car, but really needed to get something more practical as the family is growing and I’ve gotten into woodworking lately.

Was thinking of getting a regular F150, but just can’t get over how cool the Raptors look, so I went for a Gen 3 Leadfoot Gray model with the 37 Package. To me, it’s one of those rare cars that check many of my boxes such as practical for hauling stuff, roomy for family trips, quick, and has the “cool factor”.

I’m going back and forth on the stickers, should I remove them or not? Also not sure if making the wheels black would look better vs the gray wheels, a lot of gray right now. Obviously happy to just keep it as is, but would love to hear your opinions!

I have a Primer Gen 2, no stickers and black wheels. So I might not be the best one to ask.

I believe peeling the decals and black wheels are the best move, but that’s just me.

Your daughter is lucky to grow up in Idaho! I spent my teens and early 20’s living in Montana, best part of the country to call home in my opinion. I am aiming to make my way back in the near future.

I’m sure the Porsche was a fun car to own, but don’t be afraid to push this truck to its limits. They are so damn capable off-road, both slow and at speed. You’ll find out these are the best all around vehicle you can own!

Welcome to FR... hey wait. Don’t we have a rule about Porsche owners? Are we even admitting Porsche owners after @911 Crazy ;-)

Welcome to FRF!

What color you gonna paint it?

If he would have waited until his Raptor matured it would have been Avalanche grey but SOMEONE just had to have it RIGHT NOW...
