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

So you guys think he bought the truck? It’s been 2 years and no update lol.

Well crap. I didn’t start at the beginning of the thread, so yeah, wtf happened. What wasted time commenting…

Not wasted, someone who actually knows how to use a search function looking to buy a used one will read through this thread

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.

These comments about the shocks are 100 percent inaccurate. Not only does the fluid break down but also they lose nitrogen charge and dont have a away to recharge them on the oem shocks without a rebuild. My truck started to get sloppy about 40k miles on the shocks each time. To me its unbearable at 54k. I have a rebuilt set going on Monday. It will again transform the truck.

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!

Good info as I am looking into buying 2018 Gen 2 with 90K miles from a Dealership with a Clean Carfax, 2 owners....What is all involved in cam phasers and cost? Thank you in advance.....
