1 - it seems you don't like push button start so don't buy a car that has push button start.

2 - in all my years of driving, I have never lost or misplaced my keys. I assume your wife has dropped you off at barber shop and than ran to the convenience store while you are getting a hair cut. And the the keys were in your pocket? That must have sucked. :)

3 - and btw ... my wife has driven my Raptor once in 2 years. She does not like it as it is just too big for her. :)



You call it (technology), I think more like Hope and Change. You say all Ford cars and trucks have push button start. It must be new for 2015 if it is across the board. I have looked at the 2015 Expedition and Navigators and Know that they have it. The only thing good about it for my application is that it should do away with that pesky key in ignition dinger.
Wait till your wife drops you at the barber shop and runs to the connivence store while you get a hair cut. The key of course is in your pocket = cluster------.

You sound educated and rational. Care to share your thoughts on foreign policy or the state of the US financial markets?


Surely since I used to be an institutional trader for 10 years... (whos ed-o-cated now) Now I snowboard and smoke legal weed.... sup?

Basically our country needs less nipple sucking baby daddys like the one in your pic.... rap/pop culture = ******* amer'kans... just sayin....

Why Ford is so attached to trim the Raptor in grey color?

I really do not like the grey color.

They should use matte black.

Agreed! I will try my best to keep my 2013 also. I am trying to justify to myself to keep both trucks (2013 & 2017) as 20 years from now, these trucks will be become collector cars and bring big money.

Hei Raptor 911! It's been awhile!

Now why would you have a REAL Raptor (the 2013 model) and then a surrogate (2017)? Why not keep one or another? But if you won some free money and they burn a hole in your pocket...by all means do it my friend!
Let's not forget the "wife" factor in this decision...!!

Hope all is well with you and things look up!

Best, GTC

Or leave the side flairs plain black plastic (with black bumpers/grill) like a jeep wrangler. It would probably save them a few bucks instead of painting it all.
