I've had mine for a few weeks and 1300 miles. I love everything about it. Very solid, great build quality...no strange noises. Only thing I'm going to do is turn off the easy entry seat thing. I don't need to slide back and forth every time I put my key in.
I do have one observation. With the longer front doors from the first gen, Ford should have added one more notch on the door hold open. Something between the first and second notch to aide in urban parking lots.

how do you turn off the easy entry

should be in your options somewhere. i turned mine off too, cuz it never seemed to remember any settings.... one time it wouldnt move forward, another time it would go all the way up, and then also where iwanted it.. so i just shut it off. i dont remember the exact spot but it was in the options in the dash lcd screen.

Weird. My easy entry works great. The seats do set themselves to whichever key is used, and you can program your key to a setting (1 or 2). For example my wife's key sets the seat to #2 when she gets in. Mine goes to #1.

Just a few days, but zero complaints so far. And for those who LOOK for anything and everything to bitch about...there is NO vehicle made you cannot find something not PERFECT on. Just look at the warranty records on Mercedes, Bentley, Porsche, Lexus and every other vehicle produced...

Couple things !

has anyone had any problems with there 2012 or any good things to say about there 2012 ford raptor.......:waytogo:

1- Orange center line on steering wheel is higher on the left than the right side making it look like a poor installation.

2- Tailgate step top assembly misaligned from left to right , again poor fit and finish.

3- Appears to be dust particles under the paint on some of the body panels.

4- Remote start has a mind of its own , starting when it wants to , clicking the remote start sometimes the lights flash and no start ?

5- Sub woofer seems low on power , I thought I read somewhere it was 700 watts ? hmmm doubt that !

6- Whats up with the front leather seats ? the leather appears to be loose, causing large surface wrinkles at 1000 miles .

7- Never really have gotten a true 16 mpg yet .Airaid and Magnaflow to the rescue next week.

8- Light bleeds through the sliding panel on the sunroof .

9- Headlights suck....

10- No ambient lighting at floor boards .$ 55K , Really Ford ?

11- Please, somebody tell me how to get rid of that loud ass parking brake chime that stays on until I disengage it, every time I put the key in the ignition ?


Other than that, its a beast !:Grenade:

Strange, I don't get that unless I put the truck in gear with the brake still on. Then I get the chime plus a message on the display between the gauges. You get it with just the key in?

Yeah mine has a few dust particles under the paint, mostly along the leading edge of the hood. There are only a couple, but still, annoyed me!

4- Remote start has a mind of its own , starting when it wants to , clicking the remote start sometimes the lights flash and no start ?
Never had a problem with mine. As long as you click lock, then start twice all within 3 seconds of one another, it should work just fine. Also it will only work 2 times within an hour unless there is a key cycle in between.

7- Never really have gotten a true 16 mpg yet .Airaid and Magnaflow to the rescue next week.
Ditto, so far my average on the readout has been a steady 14.0 mpg. The manual hand calcs the 1st tank was 12.2, second tank was 13.2, I'm filling up Monday and will see what this tank is.

9- Headlights suck....
YEP!!!!

10- No ambient lighting at floor boards .$ 55K , Really Ford ?
I was disappointed with this too. For every single other creature comfort offered, the ambient lighting would have been nice.

Don't use it! lol. Not really as much of a need for a parking brake in an automatic. I only use it once in a blue moon when I'm parked on a really steep grade.

Comments in blue! :waytogo:
