Raptor is garbage

Put a tune on it. Night and day difference. True Story

I had a 2010 and I hated the transmission with a passion!!! It acted so weird when you tried to step on it and go in drive. I had it in 3 times and it never got any better. I traded it in for the 2012 I have and its a day and night difference!!! The transmission on the 2012 act and reacts like a transmission should. For the rest of the stuff I didnt see it at all, I never had any other problem with it. The best thing... I paid 39k in 09 put 41k miles on it and traded it in for 37 2.5 years later.

Do you guys do anything besides wash and wax them?

Yes, that is all I do.

Im not saying nothing will ever break, shit happens, but they are not race trucks off the showroom floor. They are baja "INSPIRED" trucks. Meaning they will do limited stuff in offroad racing.

They make aftermarket control arms for the same reason they make numerous rebuild kits for Chevy's. And some people just want to be different.

Maybe if you would have come to this site and been a little more civil and not a full on rant we would be a little more receptive to your complaints. We know this truck is not perfect, but there is a lot of people here that offroad the hell out of this truck and do not have half the problems you have. All I am saying is you can't expect to come her and full on bash the truck and expect us to feel sorry for you.

OK, I have a 2010 and I agree with some of your assessments. Yes the delay in transmission downshifts used to drive me crazy but the 5Star tune has aleviated some of that problem. My driver's seat heater has burned out once -a very common problem on these Fords.

I haven't heard about the upper control arm problems.

Unless there's something wrong with your truck, all 2010's are capable of fully shutting off traction control. You have to clear any warnings first, then press and hold trac control for 10 seconds. If you change anything (ie, 2 wheel to 4 wheel drive, O/R mode button pushed) you have to repeat this process.

Hope this helps.
