How many miles can I expect to get from a 2018 Raptor?

Probably consider a deep dive (rebuild) into the engine every 100k miles.
Funny. I have 3 transit work vans that haul 1200 ish lbs everyday... all have over 200k miles on them with zero issues except normal maintenance. Oil changes always at 3k-5k miles since new. Only issue we've had with them are leaking turbo lines which require the trans to be pulled. My raptors I can't comment on since it takes me years to break 20k miles lol

For what it's worth, 100,000k on my 2018. I bought it in Nov 2020 for $54,000 with 37,150 miles - super clean mall crawler. I've done the cam phasers, a wheel bearing, door locks (seize when cold), tailgate actuator and regular maintenance including rotors. It's amazing how hard I can rally it and it just wants more!

You should rebuild those shocks.... you dont realize how sloppy it has gotten until you to. I did mine at 54k miles, night and day difference.
Do you have any specific thing to note when to do this or was it all subjective feel? I’m only at 60k myself.

The shock rebuild is a myth. The only reason they would need a rebuild is if you were running a lot of real high-speed off-road running. Not just some dirt roads or trail driving, but REAL desert-type off-road where the shocks would get a serious workout. Then it’s like changing the oil in your engine or transmission, the lubricant can become “worn out”. Otherwise pavement princesses needn’t worry. My 2018 is indeed pretty much mostly pavement, but it gets more serious back-roads workout than most anyway. Just over 90k miles, E50 self-tuned since new, zero parts other than oil, filters, and recently brake pads and spark plugs replaced at 85k miles. Service items only except aftermarket stock-location intercooler. Still runs better than new, 0-60 in 3.95sec, 1/4mile in 12.57 @ 109. I don’t think my truck is special, so most people with correct upkeep should expect similar results. In my view, people who have problems with the F150 Raptor are either terribly unfortunate or they’re their own worst problem.
