No. This definitely qualifies as good.

I was about to trade in my modded Wrangler for one, but with all the cam phaser issues, I decided I didn't need that stress. They all have it on one point or another, and even though warranty covers it...it's a lengthy repair that sometimes needs to be redone.
Supposedly they will come out with the v8's in a year...I'm waitinh

They are stacking up here and this is truck country, they are going for 4k off MSRP pretty regularly around here now. My Lariat lease is up in 6 months and I'm seriously looking at replacing it with a Raptor. |

If they did come out with a Raptor equipped 7.3 or the 5.2 TT V8, I'd throw my wallet in the finance room and just say take it. |

Honestly it all depends on where you are and what you like to do. I've owned a Gen 1 and just traded my Gen 2 in for my F82. No regrets especially after going out west to the raptor assault in Utah and driving the truck how it was built for. Don't get me wrong trucks badass, but not for the east coast. Nowhere to use it. That's all for now. However if you do decide to trade for one and want a set of wheels I have a set of rotiforms in my shed waiting for you. 😂

Picked up this little piece yesterday. Should be a great daily driver and very useful vehicle for me. Had to beat them up for awhile, but finally got about $4000 off MSRP which is really good for these, especially locally. Pretty loaded up with the 802A, carbon fiber trim, and tailgate step. Very excited!

Not much yet, lol! Dummies at the dealership had the tires pumped up to 52 lbs so it was driving sort of like a tank. I might have some today to air down to the proper 38lbs and hit some whoops at 80mph!

https://www.northcountryford.com/new...archDepth=5:10 The love, they build some very fun and unique cars/trucks in an otherwise fairly copycat market IMO. The hate, I wish they were built by somebody else as Fords's quality control, reliability and customer service absolutely suck when you have a problem. I have a friend of mine that just had his 18 5.0 F150 motor replaced due to excessive oil consumption. Ford were a pain in the ass/dragged their feet about it for months just like when I had my 5.2 replaced for the same reason. Both of ours were using a quart every 300 miles or less. My own issues plus friends that I know having issues with Ford such as delaminating paint on their Explorers/F150s and then Ford saying they won't warranty it because it is supposedly impact damage. They ultimately replaced their hoods and other parts after they both went to multiple dealers/called Ford CS before Ford would do anything about it. This plus the forums look exactly like the GT350 forums with engines popping for multiple reasons and the dreaded oil consumption issues. Along with 10 speed trannies and gearboxes failing at too high of rates for my tastes. Also check your oil as there have been many reports of them being under filled with oil from the factory. Ford either screwed something up or didn't test it correctly when they went to plasma lined cylinder walls. They never had this big of oil consumption issues across the range of their engines before they went to that process. Knock on wood my 16 older gen 3.5 mated to the old 6 speed has had zero issues. The truck has had multiple recalls, but luckily been very reliable except for a leaky twin panel moonroof, which is another reason I'd get a Raptor without one. Any way, I'll be watching and seeing how your guys experience with them is. I really hope it is a very good one because dealing with Ford and some of their dealers really sucks. Like I said, I love the Raptor for what it is (and the GT350 was still probably the most fun car to drive I've ever owned), but Ford has some serious culture issues they have to tackle to bring their products up to par. In short, I'm just a little gun-shy to jump back into Ford Performance (or any Ford right now for that matter) vehicle again just yet. Last edited by minn19; 09-15-2019 at 03:40 PM.. |

Apparently a stock raptor finished (barely) the Baja 1000 a few years ago, so hope you can get it out to some nice off road events Does it have enough tow rating to tow your p car in a beaver tail trailer? |

Mine's still 100% stock, but it had no problem making quick work of some jeep trails the other day in Sedona. Toughest part was keeping the wife from not having a hissy on some of the more gnarly parts. Nothing like doing rock crawls with AC on, cooled sears, and satellite radio on. For those haven't driven a Raptor around town, it's seriously the most comfortable daily driver I've ever had. The tires, shocks, suspension absolutely suck up every bump. Most new luxury SUV, even trucks have these big wheels with low profile tires nowadays. Not the Raptor, huge sidewall cushy tires and Fox shocks gives it almost a cloud like ride around town. Even driving the jeep trails and forest service roads the other day, you don't feel beat up afterwards.

There are lots of us here. Obviously not as many as "them," but lots of us. Believe me.
