I’ve always wondered what you guys in the Olde country do to park a Raptor. Street parking, France style ;-)
Lots of places over there have passable streets not much wider than the Raptor - and I’ll bet some are not as wide. about ’13 or ’14 I took the wife to Nuremberg for the Christmas Market opening, rented a Kia Ce’ed like the one on Top Gear. Got a hotel in old town Nuremberg and their remote parking was tight. It was accessed by elevator and that elevator was a tight fit for the Ce’ed.



here she is on the parking lift so someone can park underneath.

Thank you all for your welcome!
In France it's very difficult to find a place to park the Ford... Because places are too small... I have to find a place near grass or far from the entrance for exemple but don't matter, I love this car.
My wife and me would like to go to Iceland with a off-road trailer.
We have already gone in Iceland with a camper car and now we would like to do F-Road... Very funny project.
I need also some advices and I have 2 years to test the reliability of my new Ford.
Cheers!

Yeah , it's every day a challenge to drive daily a Raptor, that's why mine is absolutly not a daily, and I live far away from ugly towns, so I am quiet and alone on the road I use, no problem to park, plenty of available places free all the time , and my area is full of offroad trails, so , it's important to choose the good car depending of your way of life !!!
In my tools box I have different size of screwdrivers, my garage is the same with a small, medium and big 4WD, to each day is suitable tool !!!

salut Gael, assure toi que ton camion ait le fusible 27 relocalisé et il y a aussi un "lead frame recall" la 6R80 qui peut subitement retrogradé en première ... Phénomène très rare heureusement .
Tu trouveras toutes les infos sur ce forum, une mine d'or ce forum ...
