Damn, that 10 looks just like mine… just 120k miles less! LOL!! Love the SCABs, white gauges, Tuxedo Black paint and that deep V8!! Congrats!!

Nice to see someone with your Raptor experience come full circle. I love my first issue 2010 6.2 and intend to keep it as my last full size truck.

 

[SKS]

Agreed. I got it for a steal, still can't believe the price. There is a dealership in NY with a 2010 6.2 scab with 20k miles asking $65k.

Crazy, I've been contemplating on listing my 2014 SCAB with 7k on the clock for less. Beautiful rig BTW.

So the real question is... did you get rid of the TRX?

So the real question is... did you get rid of the TRX?

Only when I can replace it with a Raptor R.

Congrats on the Gen 1 purchase! Fantastic deal on it too! I also have a Gen 1, 6.2. SCAB, Molten orange with 50K on the clock. You mentioned swapping out the exhaust, I went with a complete stainless works system, headers all the way to the twin rear split exit exhaust pipes. They are incredible, comes with dual high flow cats and dual resonators. Be advised, they are loud, as in race car loud, but I wouldn't personally use anything else after having it on now. I would also advise a pedal commander, K&N CAI, drilled and slotted rotors and the carbon fiber/ceramic brake pads, kits are available on americantruck.com. And if finances allow, a performance tune/tuner also from americantruck.com. I also just put the Mallory Blaster coil packs on my ride (new plugs and wires before) and the improvement was day and night difference. I was watching your new truck on bat, I couldn't believe how low it sold for, congrats again, beautiful truck and will enjoy seeing your updates and improvements. Best of luck with her!

Welcome back - now, like we told the last guy, you sell your shit again and you're out of the clubhouse.

Oh, geez, my bad. I was trying to help out and give parts advice to a fellow Gen 1 owner. Pardon my unintended faux pas. I'm not exactly sure "what shit I'm selling" actually even means. But here goes my reply to you. I attend EVERY major car show, parts swap meets and every track event in the North East and I'm fairly well known. Ive been present during numerous conversations regarding on-line forums and wether others, like me, view and opine on them. Many did but later gave up and simply quit, tired of the comments back or nasty posters. I need to thank you for reminding me of these conversations. They were exactly right too. Many great forums I previously belonged too are closed up and gone due to a lack of new members and not getting younger enthusiats involved. So "like WE told the last guy", whos "WE" do you have a mouse in your pocket? Do you think your pathetic attempt to shame/criticize/warn me intimidated me whatsoever? Your a creepy, lurking cockroach that darts out into the sunlight to beat someone over their head with their little stick of percieved "justice" then scamper back into the darkness and low glare of an old computer screen in his mommys basement. I greatly appreciate the wake up call. Happy miles to all members and Happy Holidays. I'm cancelling my profile, lesson learned. This Veteran is : Alpha Mike Foxtrot. Hey Donovan, up yours you *****.
