All's quite from the Hennessy camp...funny how the Z burned up the Internet on the bent frame issue but not a word about a how a Hennessy special went up in flames.

Has the pictures and story been posted over at the Z, if not they would not be discussing it yet.
If Hennessy chimes in from time to time on that forum as some have stated, it would be interesting, not sure why he does not chime in on this forum?

FRF won't allow Hennessey to support. Unlike that other place that will accept anybody paying, the owner and admins here only want quality vendors here

There is only one Raptor with engine replacement in the dealership, as per the technicians, it has been drowned in wadi (water). Trust that this can help you understand it is not my claims.

I'm going today to the dealership , I could check the progress on the job if you want...

The technicians can say anything they want but i can assure you that my vehicle engine would not have been replaced if the mistake is mine. The vehicle is ready since two days back and i will collect it next Sunday around 5 pm. Let us meet there if you want me to prove to you that they are liers and nothing went wrong on the vehicle from my side.
I still love the Raptor but i dont have that much faith in it anymore. What makes still hold on to it is the fact that no similar incident happened in another vehicle.
Let us exchange phone numbers if you want to discuss this further.

A dealership usually cant prove that your engine has digested water because when it blows apart all water and oil is lost, leaving them with no evidence.

Sorry, I can't subscribe to group-think no matter how much I love the Raptor. Always take something for what it's worth but don't let your biases influence your judgement. If any of us had a problem with our Raptor, I would think this would be the first place we would come to vent our frustration. Imagine being turned on, judged and insulted simply because you voice your opinion and it goes against the mass consensus. I'm not saying I agree with him, but I'm saying he's got the right to his opinion.

I couldn't find anything doing a quick search. EFool ( Henneseys name for ESAD/Z Forum owner) would most likely delete the thread since Hennessy is a forum supporter.

I dont agree with you, because if the vehicke was flooded there has to be some traces of flood water in the engine. In addition, the vehicle electrical and electronic equipment will be damaged. Furtgere more, where the water is going to come from in a country where there was no rain during a dry season with a temperature of over 45deg c. You will say sea water?, then in this case the evidenced of flooding will be more.
Guys i am talking about my vehicle here i am talking about my Raptor, if it was a mistake from my side why would i mention it in this forum after i have been compensated with a new engine???
I am just trying to save everyone the hassel and disapoint i have been through.
If everyone think that what happend is my mistake then everyone is right and i am wrong.

Sorry for your friend's loss I hope he is fully insured.
I dont think it has anything to do with the modification because i am from Oman as well & i have 2011 raptor which i bought in Nov-11 and without any modification but with a broken engine!!!
So just advise everyone to stay away from this fake truck and move to GMC or Chevy.

Mexican Raptor...I think if he posted something other than this as his first post we would be more willing to let him vent his frustration. This just makes him look like a troll...

I have no idea weather you swamped your Raptor or not.
When my brother swamped his jeep in a river the motor blew apart the next day. Chrysler said they suspected he had swamped it but since they had no evidence the motor was replaced.

Clearly that's a fake jeep stay away, move to Hummer or Land Rover
