ONE YEAR OF OWNERSHIP

[Raptorial]

Sweet. You should have had your wife take a pic of you doing a reverse dunk with the Raptor in front

Ours has been one hell of a truck! Sept 14th marked a year for us. 23.5k miles later with lots of use. Really glad we went to the gen 3 from our gen 2.

I'm at 22.9k with 3+ weeks until my 1 year mark. High mileage raptors are the best raptors.

No doubt!

Congratulations Mr Gen Tre Snob
You definitely, IMHO, Picked the best color, 2nd only to the Molten Orange on my 2010. It only took them 12 yrs to bring it back.
I say Snob because I’m green and orange with envy! I’m unlikely going to ever be able to afford a Gen Tre, Unless…. Your interested in a swap?? I’ll throw in all of my recovery gear annnnd 4 Free Detailing sessions
I anxiously await your decision with my Baited Breath

As much as I would love to help a brother out, there is no way I would part with this fine machine. I almost crushed a deer this morning on the way into work with it. Made my heart skip a beat thinking I would 1. Damage the beast 2. Be without it for more than a few days. Thankfully my expert EVOC skills prevailed and Bambi lived to die another day. Hopefully at the hands of a skilled hunter and not my Truck.

Congrats! I’m going on three weeks and feel the same way!

I hit 1 year this month and have 20k miles on it. No major problems and i still love the truck! Plan on keeping until a gen 4 is announced and then we'll see if its worth trading

Happy Orangversary!
I attended Raptor Assault as well, what a hoot! It definitely reinforced my purchase decision, as you know it’s a very well instructed experience, our pickups are hugely capable!

Mine is still fresh (900 miles) but every time I drive or look at it, I smile…

Today marks 1 year of owning Orange Crush. My thoughts on this truck have been nothing but positive. After 1 year, I am still in love and have no regrets on getting it. We have journeyed 12,000 miles up (3000 was a trek down to Florida and back). I have only taken it to the dealer 1 time for the recalls and TSB's that popped up. For being a "Covid" built truck, I had my apprehensions about build quality and reliability. Thankfully none of that came to fruition. The dreaded thud/clunk from the front suspension seems to have worked it self out and went away after about 3 months of driving. I have found I leave the truck in the regular drive mode for most driving and turn the suspension setting to sport. My average fuel economy had fluctuated between 15.5 and 16 Mpg over a tank full. The camera system has been extremely helpful backing up to hitch up trailers as it takes the guesswork out of how close you are. I really have no complaints, other than I do not see many other Gen 3 out on the road still. This has been by far my most favorite Truck I have ever owned and now I don't think I will be able to ever go back to a "regular truck"(Dang you FORD!!). Taking the opportunity to go to the Raptor Assault class helped me learn more of the capabilities of this Monster that unfortunately I will probably never use, but it was Awesome that Ford includes this class. So, to sum it all up, I love this Freaking Beast. View attachment 372538View attachment 372537

I agree!! I ordered mine on 6/16/21, built 11/19/21 and received 1/6/22… a 37pp in Code Orange as well, now with 17,600 miles and zero issues! Very happy as well!!

@Bubbasuwannee just curious, what more did you like with the gen3? Just curious as I think about time to time if I ever upgrade from my 2019.
