Proper Break-in process for Gen 3:

Did they change the oil drain from gen 2 or do you still need a fumoto valve and hose to not make a mess?

I am curious about this as well.

It all depends on what you are comparing... gen 2 truck had the plastic pan and the plastic 1/4 turn pan cap from 17- mid 2018. The metal pan the Ford reverted back to is on mid-2018 through present engines.

the videos I see about changing your own oil in gen 2, talk about how the oil drain nut is a little recessed and you can end up spilling all the old oil on your skid plate and through that to your floor. One guy on YT fabricates a channel using a paper plate to route it to the drain pan. Just wondering if it is the same set up in gen 3?

Yes, it's the same.

I give it hell out of the gate. Got mine up to 117 with 43 miles on it. Full throttle while passing on a 2 lane road a couple times under 100 miles.

I’m barely at 238 miles on it, I don’t drive hard all the time.

God D a m n right.

And that's why you don't buy a used Raptor.. lol jk

At least not from WTX.

Drive it like you stole it.

Hallelujah.
