Hey, as the title says, I'm new here looking for my first Raptor! I was going to buy a Gen 1 2014 Ruby Red SE last week. Had the deal agreed with paperwork in the works and the seller backed out due to not knowing what they want to replace it with. So I am back on the market looking for a Ruby Red Gen1 with lower miles and clean history. I love the the Gen 1s but I may start looking at 2 and 3 just to broaden my search.

Welcome and best of luck in your search. I also came here a few months ago looking for my first Raptor. Lots of great information and good people to be found here.

If this clean Gen2 truck was posted 2 months ago, it would likely be in my driveway.

If you can't find the Gen 1 you want, I would definitely go with a Gen 3!

Yeah, took it pretty hard at first because I had already paid for the Carfax, a 3rd party inspection, and secured financing a small part of it. But how much he cared for the Raptor was why it was so well maintained and part of why I liked it so much so I don't blame him at all. I'm still holding out hope a miracle happens and he decides to call me and proceed with the sell .

But I'm keeping an eye out for a 2014 Ruby Red SE with lower miles just in case. I'm in Texas but looking nationwide.
