First of all thank you to everyone here for sharing their knowledge and experiences. It really helped me on my Raptor hunt and decision to take the plunge. Friday night we picked up a 2014 SCREW in Tux Black. 115k miles. No Rust except on the exhaust and tow hooks. Overall in great shape. Has some aftermarket wheels and tires that are ok but pretty much appears bone stock. It has a spray in liner and folding bed cover with some terrible led bed light strips I will remove.
I did spring for a 44k mile bumper to bumper warranty as well. I will try to nab some pictures or a walk around video over the next week and try to upload.
Plans are for a CAI and cat back once I have the funds. Will do some more driving this week to see if she has any issues. I think the shocks need a rebuild and I don't think the tires are balanced properly because there are some vibration points here and there at various speeds. We also had some shudder on deceleration once but I haven't replicated it and the wife was driving when we first experienced it. Also noticed it felt like it wanted to move away from a turn when hitting bumps on a curve once.
Any and all advice is welcome for this newbie.

Sounds like you've got a nice Raptor with some mini projects. Pics please!
