What did u do to your raptor today?

[rschap1]

Conversation hits home...
I actually had a 2010 or '11 Explorer that got me into my Raptor a couple years ago.
Saw the Raptor listed and offered my 96 Bronco towards it.
No interest there but was told owner needed a daily driver.
I replied, "sorry, all I got is my Explorer".
We ended up meeting and a few minutes later I drove away in the Raptor, seller in my old Explorer
I still have the Bronco (listed for sale again since I now need to make room in the driveway again).
With winter/salt/chloride season approaching, I am again looking for something similar to what that Explorer was for daily winter driving.

Seen some built long travel Explorers and pre-runners....
Just a little F.Y.I.

Happy shopping

Probably.
Looking at the explorer line. Either ST or king ranch. Truck is just too much for daily use nowadays.

The standard Ford F150 4x4 is a very good truck.

Tremor trim line is what I'd get if I couldn't get a Raptor.

Also the 3.5 Powerboost is a monster of an engine/hybrid system. Nigh on 600 lb/ft of torque!

I got the raptor for the ride/suspension
I wouldn’t get a regular F150 unfortunately
Maaaaaybe a tremor but I don’t “need” a truck bed anymore

Usually you should know by the first time they take off their pants.

Also in real talk, the dealer who said my steering rack was failing quoted me 2200 bucks. Comes with 2 year, unlimited mileage, no questions asked replacement. They quoted 1200 for parts, 600 for labor, 100 for consumables, 150 for alignment and the rest for tax. Doesn't seem insane, but I just wanted a sanity check.
