New guy!

Hey folks!

Just thought I'd introduce myself. I purchased a 2011 White crew cab last week and I LOVE THIS THING! I was a Ford tech from 2009-2012, and sold Fords up until 2015, so its not my first time driving one. I've always wanted one, but could never swing the payments etc. Luckily I found one for a price I couldn't refuse. Owning one is a totally different experience than putting around in a customers or test drives. Cant wait to hit some trails with it!

I've got a ton of questions on this thing, but I'll post them in the appropriate sections.

Yeah thats why I have not posted anything else yet haha. I've got most of what I need, but there's also a lot of contradicting info I've found. All I'm really trying to find is the difference between 2011 and 2012 suspension. Saw something saying 2010-2011 is reliable for top perch mod, where 2012+ probably shouldn't go above mid.

And as of right now - no mod plans. I own a business that pulls a small (3500lb MAX) trailer. It's already got just about everything I wanted done. Hennessy Intake, Corsa cat with offroad X, Electric cut outs (probably going to remove tho) Goodyear 35s, ADD Bumper with Rigids.. All I really need is to level it, and maybe upgrade the Sony stereo.

Working on pics!

My Daughter loves the truck just as much as I do! Funny story - I took her to the state fair in 2011 when she was a baby and barely standing. I put her in the Raptor on display and took a picture of her "driving" it. The day after I bought it, Facebook's "On this day" thing popped up with her in the Raptor so I had to take the same pic but in Daddy's Raptor! It was meant to be haha!

Edit - I guess I'm too new to post pics.. they don't work?
