I saw my first Ford Ranger Raptor today and had to swallow back the throw up in my mouth! It was blue with a white stripe on the rockers with a small Raptor decal. What the fudge was Ford thinking? It looked like a match box truck so over done with mini Raptor look alike details. I went home and hugged my Raptor and told her what I saw wasn't real.
Thankfully I haven't seen one in person yet, only pictures. I agree, they are hideous and they are so small inside, get in an accident with one of those and you're doomed, unless you only hit a squirrel.

Went and had another key cut so I can program it. Backstory, the OEM unlock button stopped working about 2018 and the Amazon replacement only lasted about about 3 years, with the remote start button failing first followed by the door unlock. Let’s hope that the CarandTruckRemotes.com one holds up better. It’s amazing how much it sucked having to use the key or keypad to unlock the truck when I can remember when my vehicles didn’t have power locks!

Finally got my title, had paid it off almost a year ago and for whatever reason the title got lost in the sauce. The bank told me it was sent like 8 months ago, I said I never received it they started giving me a bunch of prepackaged answers and run around. Finally yesterday I come home to letter from them dated the 18th. So did they just drag their feet, was it lost and returned and sent back out? I don't care if things take a while to get sorted but I want someone to at least know what the hell is going on. You'd think they send it with a tracking number.

You poor baby, 3rd world problems. I wish my 2010 had remote start, wasn't even an option. I have to get into a cold truck every day. :suicide:

Actually I keep it in the garage so I only use the remote start on occasion like out of town. I suggest you try and get an aftermarket remote start as it will change your life! (Just like your Raptor did)

Sometimes in the morning when its still a bit chilly, I log into the Tesla app and turn the car on so its a nice 73 degrees when I get in. You can do it right from bed!

My 2010 1/2 has factory remote start.
But I upgraded the alarm system to the Ford gold six button key fob so I can use the remote to open and close my Pace Edwards electric bed cover.
