Purchasing a 2020 Raptor

[ajdoms]

Hello,
I’m looking at buying a 2020 lightly used raptor. Looking to find out how the reliability is and what kind of mechanical issues they are known for, due to the price of the truck.

I’ve had my 2020 for a little over 2 years now. Currently at 44k miles. I have had zero problems.

It’s a shame there’s not a sub forum on FRF that might have a topical discussion about what issues to look for ...

Oh wait!

A late build 2020 is probably the most reliable/sorted out Raptor you can buy barring any extremely low mileage 6.2 Gen 1s, but certainly the most reliable production run of all Gen2 & Gen3s out there

I have a 2020 with a 10/20 build date. Its been solid (45k) knock on wood. I would definitely shoot for a 20' outta of the Gen 2's.

Yeah I should probably mention- my 2020 is now @ 86k miles- only issues have been needing to refresh the suspension which is just maintenance but @ one point i had all 4 live valves “buzzing” @ me every time I started up lol, I had a small crack in a valve cover just recently noticed @ 80k miles during spark plug change - probably could’ve used RTV but swapped for new, and just recently I’m starting to get some noise from drivers side wheel area & im 90% certain it’s either a wheel bearing going bad or something minor w/ IWE system- 4wd/4a still works as it should & sound is intermittent.

That’s it- never left me stranded, do decent amount of towing, just drive the hell out of it doing truck stuff dad stuff dog stuff etc.

Just do the service
