At the time there was little on the market for disabling the auto start/stop so I purchased the Genie which changes the tune. Now there is a device which I will shortly purchase for the incoming Raptor that goes behind the switch and simply turns the switch off. I'm having issues now because after 2 years the Truck sometimes acts like it's lost between being turned off and being turned on. I need to remove it and reinstall it or possibly remove it altogether for the trade in.

i had rpg collars on the front of my 2020. did not like them and took them off. they took out the progressiveness of the spring and made it ride rough and not fit in garage. rides so much better without them and truck is pretty level
What size collars did you go with?

I too probably should have gone directly to the Fox Factory 3.0. I currently have Eibachs up front and Deaver HD +3 in the rear. I do like the less body roll, axle wrap, etc. but the sound of the shocks topping out bugs me. And when the truck is empty which is 80% of the time and hwy miles, it is certainly a lot firmer.

If it wasn’t for moving, and a little Travis in the oven, I probably would have had the Fox Factory 3.0 shocks by now. I also just have a hard time paying full price for something.

I will at some point start a thread on this question, but something I still have to decide on is whether to go with the non live valve or the live valve version. My truck is a 19’, but I really like the idea of the full control over the settings of the non live valve version.

AWE 2FG exhaust. I like the sound at startup, but that's it. I may remove it this winter.

I regret installing dual Rigid 6” light bars in the grille. It was a PITA to install, light projection gets blocked by the grille so it doesn’t go as far down the road/trail, and they’re hard to clean bugs off of.

AWE 2FG exhaust….I wouldn’t say regret but I definitely wouldn’t do it again. But my next truck will be a gen3 so it won’t be necessary anyway.

Disabling fake engine noise made no difference to me, and it caused the chime and reverse beeping in my truck to occasionally not play through the speakers, only the dash cluster. When this happens the turn signal also sounds different and operates at a slower frequency. It’s annoying but not enough to make me change it back yet.

Would definitely disable horn honk when closing the door without the key inside again.

Would definitely enable “law enforcement mode” or whatever it’s called again where it prevents you from taking the truck out of park with no key detected.

Would also enable mirror auto fold again.
