  1. What did you do to your Ranger Raptor Today?

    Annnnnd Ford just canceled my j brace order, and I lost the Ford points I used for the purchase. Saw that happened to someone else recently. This is so frustrating for something Ford should be covering in the first place.
  2. What did you do to your Ranger Raptor Today?

    I ordered my J braces almost two weeks ago, and Ford still hasn't shipped them. They appear to be stuck in processing limbo. Called this morning, and Ford customer support has no visibility into parts inventory/stock availability. They claimed to have escalated it to an ops team to figure it...
  3. No Thanks to Colorado FORD dealers

    This spring a local front range dealer bumped my MSRP build/allocation after about 10 months of waiting, and they never told me. Apparently they found someone else they wanted to sell to instead. I ended up finding the exact same build I wanted in the midwest for under MSRP in May and went to...
  4. New fun problem! Automatically switching drive modes

    Yep, mine started cycling between normal, sport, haul, baja, etc. once while I was driving a couple of weeks ago. I hadn't touched the knob/dial for at least a couple of weeks prior to that so it definitely wasn't stuck. It is the only time it has happened (so far), and I am hoping it remains...
  5. Issues at less than 1,000 miles make it difficult to not be disappointed.

    Do you know where the passenger side curtain airbag connector was that your service center fixed? My dash warning for the same issue popped up last night. I would prefer to not drive all the way to the dealer and waste my time and gas for something I should be able to do in my garage in...
  6. Here is a topic you wont see every day

    My card with the code was in the glovebox still in the shrink-wrap. That code does not work in the infotainment system for setting/resetting the keypad code, but it did work using the process to program it on the actual driver's door keypad. I am having more and more issues with Android Auto...
  7. Ford Loaner Cars?

    I think it is going to depend entirely on the dealer. The one I took mine to initially wanted to have me take their shuttle instead of getting a loaner, but I pushed out the service date a few weeks and got a new F150 XLT 4x4 as a loaner. Made me appreciate the suspension and size of the RRaptor...
  8. Transfer Case Leaking

    Took awhile, but a local dealer service center finally had a loaner available and took care of it the other week. The service tech initially said there was no leak and it was just "assembly lube" until I provided pictures showing the drips and the soaked skid under the transfer case. They put it...
  9. Black Lug Nuts?

    I have a couple other vehicles with decent ATs and wheels that are tucked under the rear. I have never had any concerns about them walking away, even in a higher theft metro where there are no consequences, since they're a pain to drop down. Our spares are on a steel wheel, too, so even less...
  10. Black Lug Nuts?

    The ones I linked off ebay fit perfectly and have been on my truck for almost a couple thousand miles now. They have the exact same surface area and angle/bulge as the OEM lug nuts.
  11. Bed Tie Down Hook Bolts!

    Think my regular torx T40 was slightly small for them but mostly worked getting 3 of 4 of them out so probably a Torx Plus T40? Had to use big channel locks to get the last one the rest of the way out. If you have a spray in bedliner and Ford sprayed over the tie downs like on mine, use a...
  12. Bed Tie Down Hook Bolts!

    They're Torx Plus, which I didn't realize was a thing until I removed mine. I replaced all four (from the ARB air compressor install on passenger side) with black oxide stainless bolts that are regular Torx from BelMetric...
  13. Potential overlanding build

    I don't have any of those specific Alu-Cab items, but I have had their expedition rooftop tent for 6+ years now. It weighs a ton but is pretty much bomb proof. It has withstood a number of nights in heavy storms for me with no leaks or concerns. I am no giant by any means, but it sleeps two...
  14. Ranger RAPTOR V6 FORScan spreadsheet?

    Mine auto-folds the mirrors without using Forscan. I can't remember if it was a factory default, but if not, I enabled it in the infotainment vehicle options/settings.
  15. Ford Performance Tune Released for Ranger Raptor for 455 HP / 536 LB-FT Torque

    Do you have documentation? I don't believe it unless there's written proof, and even then I probably won't. Just sounds like anecdotal stories to me. :crazy::LOL: /s
  16. Ford Performance Tune Released for Ranger Raptor for 455 HP / 536 LB-FT Torque

    Yep, I previously confirmed this with a Ford ESP/extended warranty group. They said the Ford ESP would only apply if the Ford Performance tune was installed prior to the vehicle being delivered to its first owner. Your dealer service group might try or be able to help you out if you have an...
  17. Transfer Case Leaking

    Thanks, that is what I am hoping for and sort of expecting. Are you in the front range, or somewhere else? Seems like a toss up on Denver metro Ford service center experiences. A local enthusiast group leaned slightly towards a specific service writer at Phil Long versus the other dealer service...
  18. Transfer Case Leaking

    Just discovered my transfer case is leaking ATF at the driveshaft and probably has been since it was built based on the drips onto the tray/skid below. I bought my Ranger Raptor roughly 5/28, and it just turned over 1,900 miles this week. I am going to schedule an appointment to get it looked at...
  19. Black Lug Nuts?

    No affiliation, but I bought a set of Gorilla locking splines from here the other week/month, and they are working great so far. Couldn't really beat the price at $63. https://www.ebay.com/itm/184482170913
  20. 12 Hour Long Drive Data and thoughts in a 2024 Lariat 4x4

    Ah, dangit! Thanks for checking. I think I got my Mini VCI cable that I used for Techstream to communicate with Forscan last night but haven't hooked it up to the truck yet.
