How's the old gen drive compared to the new one? Is it gas or diesel?

For those on the fence between a Ranger Raptor and a Jeep Rubicon, I am currently writing this as I sit shotgun in a Jeep Rubicon and I must say the Raptor is leaps and bounds more comfortable than the Jeep. There is a vibration in the cabin from the tires and every bump is jarring to the spine...

Thank you, John. We will be using the U-Haul auto transport hauler.

Sounds like I should bite the bullet and pick up and adjustable hitch.

Old VW bug, so pretty light. Plus, it's our only option.

I am going to be picking up a car in California next month and towing it back. For those that have towed with their Raptor, what are you towing and what drop did you need? The trip is ~1,300 miles so I need the trailer to be level.

Update: I'm not sure if the tech had a bad gauge, but I just measured my tread depth and I am between 13.25 and 14+/32nds (highest my Amazon gauge goes is 14/32nds). I verified the accuracy of my gauge with Mitutoyo calipers.

Booo

There is a USB outlet where? Hidden on the truck or on one of doodads?

Mine was 11/32 at 4,4xx miles, but I just rounded up to 5k. I am at 5,200 now and have a depth gauge coming from Amazon today. I will check and update when able.

Cactus Gray ?

I run 93, but next month I am making a 2,700 mile round trip. I plan to use 87 on the drive out (will save us about $60) and then 93 on the way back as we will be towing a car. I've got 5,000 miles and I've had the truck two months ?

Wow, I didn't realize the rings were that heavy!! That's surprising to me. Are they super thick? I haven't had a reason to take mine off.

All good! Your efforts on a "step by step" post with pictures are definitely appreciated, though!

The standard wheels look like some cheapos you would order from Tire Rack. The bead lock wheels are much better looking and accent the truck nicely for those that ordered the best color ?

You have the wrench on the wrong part. It is for the ball joint that connects the upper control arm to the knuckle.

Yeah, that's why I am asking. I haven't been off-road yet and 90% have been highway miles (50-85mph). I don't do much hard acceleration and try to drive conservatively (~18mpg).

Just passed 5k miles and my tires are down to 11/32. What are you seeing on your stock KO3s? Edit: apparently I was wrong

KO3s are 3 peak M&S rated. Any reason you are switching to a different tire for the winter?

46ft lbs is correct per the manual. The nut is a one time use part. If removed, it must be replaced.
