Got the ole 2011 cleaned up and ready to sell. I left the front KING 3.0's and the Deavers on it as I bought new stuff for the Whipple truck.
If anyone here is looking for a truck they are not afraid to scratch or want to build into a desert truck I will cut a deal for FRF members.
Yes the Hooptie wheels that came on the silver truck are on it. I kept the Methods and 37's...lol

Yea I daily mine. Parking it sucks but it’s a great all around’er.
I drive mine daily and everywhere the wife and I go together even though she has a new 2024 Mustang GTO, she says the ride in my Raptor is so much better. I was trying to talk her into getting a Ranger Raptor, but she just loves Mustangs for her cars. She's always had one, and says she always will.

I paid way too much for my Raptor but it only had 21,800 miles on it when I got it in September 2021. I've always wanted one and when it popped up for sale at Carmax, I jumped on it. I figure if this is the last truck I'll ever buy, the sales price was inconsequential.

I keep up with regular maintenance, oil changed every 5,000 miles, recently had all the fluids changed with the lead frame recall, and even had to get an actuator door motor repaired. Sounded like the AC Blower motor was going to grenade itself. That was covered by the Carmax warranty, thank goodness.

I have 75,000 miles on it now and 99% trouble free except the AC blower motor repair. I average around 14.3mpg and am happy with that.
