What, if any, are your regrets with your Raptor?

[OEMPlus Raptor]

I wish I would've gotten, Recaro's, the black interior is fine but can get boring quickly. The bedside decals. I added them afterwards and the bead locks. Mine came with the standard wheels. I was able to get the wheels and decals, but the Recaro's are not that easy.

No Ragrets. Even running 4"lift on 37's, whach seems to be frowned upon. The DSC is wayyy too much fun

2020 Raptor, fully loaded. Pros: sun roof (open every chance I get), lane keeping works well, adaptive cruise works flawlessly, love the tailgate step, Cons: as much as I love a cooled seat there is simply not enough airflow to really enjoy the feature needs way more fan power, I will never use auto trailer back up assist (I will back up my trailer all on my own thank you), hate the auto start/stop feature but have trained myself to hit the “off” button every time I start her up, it had the ramps already included I didn’t order but thought the extra weight in the bed would help a little in the MN winters and the occasional loading of something on a dolly but after six months it starts squeaking at every bump super annoying so removed them.

Only regret is not buying 2

I sort of regret not waiting for prices to drop more to get a 19-20, but the loaded 18 i got fits every bill i wanted. The main regret is getting one with the damn sunroof, i honestly dont get why theyre so popular. Just had a leak fixed up, but it seems like itll be a recurring issue. Plus just more heat in the car being in Florida.

For me, it's the light. As someone up thread mentioned, if there was an option for just a clear panel and retractable shade I'd probably buy that one. Clear T-tops back in my misspent youth probably influenced me. Plus it makes it easier for your wife and/or girlfriend to flash the crowd.

Ramps as an option or the aftermarket loading ramps? I've used them before, but with the stubby bed on these I'm not sure what I'd ramp up there.

CrusierClass, I have a 22 37 package loaded and I am amazed at how this truck rides and performs, it’s my first Raptor as I used to be a Chevy guy lol

That's good to hear. I'm not brand loyal, I've driven all of the Big 3 at some point but more GM products than anything. Isn't it amazing how far trucks have come?

I think I would have given PPF a serious consideration. Too late now. Also wish I hadn't gotten black, but it's one of those things where had I gotten a different color, quite possibly may have seriously disliked my truck color rather than just tired of black and keeping it clean.

PPF definitely seems worth it.


Thanks everyone who posted about their higher mileage trucks, that's heartening to see the longevity and that, long term, you are still enjoying the ownership of it.

Hate the moon roof. Hate the Light and my stereo hates it also.

Since my only issue was cam phaser replacement at 45k or so and Now at 70 K, I have zero regrets about the truck that I ordered and Ford built for me…
