Holy crap man! One one level i'm jealous you get to drive that much and on another I'm glad my 2018 only has 48k on the clock :p
I do put some miles on her. Picked her up Dec of 2016 and I don't think I can ever get rid of her. Lots of work done and no way to ever recoup any of it when the odometer says 200k. But man I have been thinking about a Gen 3 possibly an R if the prices will come down from the clouds.

Yep... keep struggling with ADDING an R. Didn't get my new 2020 until COVID hit though as I'll eat shit and die before paying a markup on ANYTHING.

Yeah I hear you! The Braptors have been coming WAYYYY down in price lately - I think ford is reducing the prices a lot, they must have realized they were drunk when they thought a Braptor should be over $100k :rolleyes: But mid $70s might make them more attractive.

I guess this should really be “what will you do to your Raptor mañana?” …just finished doing the brakes on one of my daughter’s friend’s car, and done wrenchin’ for tonight! LOL

Still waiting for the lube locker gasket anyway; should be here tomorrow.

And yes, it’s the Spicer vs. the Ford Performance version. Paid $129 for this one, and the cheapest I could find a Ford badged version was almost double the price. For $100+ I’ll live with this sticker! LoL.

Or I may have a custom badge engraved, I’m not opposed to spending money on bling, but I want it to mean something…like I did for my tailgate badge:

…and my G21 baseplates!

It was done by Billet Badges … not cheap at $300 for my semi-custom design, but an incredible piece of automotive artwork IMHO. They do great work, and were awesome to work with…great communication and collaboration too.

My badge was on their home page for a while, and is still showing on the Ford badge page!
