OP paid for it to be installed by a Ford dealer, it's a silly suggestion to have him pay again at a separate mechanic to get it installed and retain the warranty.
As a whole, I definitely support start/stop systems. It makes sense from an emissions perspective. Where it doesn't make sense is on vehicles with 12v starters that aren't made it.
* Start/stop on my Subaru Forester? Complete jarring experience upon start, and HVAC stopping.
* On my Volvo...
I think the method wheels are meant to mount as lug centric, but adding hub centric rings may help reduce risk of wheel vibration. Not sure it would be necessary.
I'm also in the market for a set of 703s. Curious what other people are doing for this.
I've done some 400-mile drives on my RR.
This is my first truck, so I was a little nervous about the highway comfort, especially on the KO3s. Overall, I've been pleasantly surprised. Not quite as comfortable as my XC60 on air suspension, but completely fine and doesn't draw any ire from my...
It's odd that they can remove a feature like park assist. Probably not something I would use myself, but the option would be nice.
I wonder if it could be retrofitted somehow. Ex. installing some board / wiring harness that has the parking logic.
It’s honestly not too bad. It feels a little disconcerting pulling on the headliner but it all came together okay. I’d give yourself an hour just in case.
Today I did an undercoating. I used about 2.5 cans of clear wool wax. You can find basic kits online that include a flexible tube and nozzle so you can really get the inside of the frame rails.
Totally overkill here in the PNW but it took under an hour and it’s not toxic or anything to handle...

I’ve had mine for about a week. 100% worth it
Depends on the battery. LifePo4 batteries are VERY safe. They cannot go into thermal runaway like lithium ion.
Renogy makes a slim 100aH unit that can go behind the rear seat
I've been looking at solutions for this for a little bit.
I will likely do an auxiliary 100aH behind the rear seat and run a Redarc between that and the starter battery. From the auxiliary battery, run a 12v to the bed (where it was in the '24) model, but also an anderson plug for a portable...
It's not going to be as "floaty" as the F-150s.
I'd say it's pretty well balanced. Not the same level of comfort on the street as my Volvo with air suspension, but overall I've been pleased with it.

This company makes billet pedals. They manufacture some for the Bronco - any reason why these wouldn't fit on the Ranger Raptor?
Yeah, I would pair any auxiliary battery with a Redarc or Victron system.
One bonus at least with Redarc is that you can use your secondary battery to recharge your starter battery if it dies
