if you don't need the extra 2k lbs for towing, the raptor is a no brainer at this price.

Prices not moving on the RR should be a big hint that the tremor is not coming here for at least another year.

Dang they dropped the best looking color (cactus grey). I get compliments on it anytime I take the truck out. usually i like the "desert sand" colors on trucks but this one doesn't look very good in the B&P tool. hopefully it looks better irl. Guess those of us with cg trucks have a #rare...

I think you may be reading into it too much. I'm still seeing the topper available for normal rangers which would also have the same concerns about the bed reinforcements. although i don't have a clue why it wouldn't be okay for the raptor anymore. you might get more info if you reach out to...

honestly the ford branded leer was a bit of a scam. you can get more features for the same price or cheaper if you go direct thru leer or ARE. definitely get quotes from multiple dealers in your area but this was my experience when I was considering one. the ford one was very bare bones and...

The headlights do shift as well but I don't think its the same functionality as the cornering lamps. The headlights shifting is more for when you are taking a bend on a road, the lights shift slightly in the direction you're steering to illuminate the bend ahead. You can see it more clearly if...

I've been offroading, hauling and camping with my truck so clearly it is doing truck things just fine. Imagine if someone was on the forum saying that since Ford didn't install a fifth wheel hitch, the ranger is clearly incapable of doing truck things. After all, some users haul fifth wheels...

The TSB holds more weight as official internal documentation than a product description does if you would seek arbitration. Further if you were truly at risk of cracking your bed from normal operation such as "entering a driveway" or a "gravel lot", that would fall even more on Ford's legal team...

"Extreme offroad conditions" is the official language ford used on the TSB they sent out to all service departments. No way you are spending this much time arguing about something when you don't even know the full story, which has been mentioned in the other 9 threads on this exact topic. 🙄...

And you have no clue how much of my life I've spent in colorado so trying to assume things about me is a bit strange. It really doesn't change the fact that the majority of truck owners aren't going offroad or buying camper shells. I don't know what golfers and soccer parents have to do with...

adding onto this...if you don't have a camper shell and never installed j-braces and your bed cracks from going offroading, that would be covered under warranty if the bed did fail this way since you didn't meet the criteria for requiring the brace. further, if you have a camper shell, no brace...

I've been to colorado many times and the majority of trucks I saw do not have RTT and camper shells. Not only are you overstating how popular those accessories are, but even fewer people are actually going offroad. Even if colorado did have the majority of people doing these things, there's 49...

and if it would save me money and not effect how I use the truck, I'd welcome it. anything to lower the price of vehicles as we can all agree prices are too high. if you planned to use the truck differently, you could opt for additional upgrades to suit your needs instead of making everyone...

🤷‍♂️ looks pretty great to me and looks come second to the amount of protection you get. my buddy has an ARB summit bull bar on his trooper. he hit 2 deer at once on the interstate and had no damage to the vehicle. he was able to drive 10 more hours to our campground without any issues from the...

a minority use toppers and racks and even a smaller minority go through 'extreme offroad conditions' with those items. why should >90% of truck buyers be required to pay for a part that only <10% of truck owners actually require? if i didn't plan on getting a bed rack or topper, i'd much...

Installation cost for most accessories went up in the last few months from what I can tell. The keypad used to be $23 for installation, now it's $56. Not specific to the j-braces, looks like it was an audit on ford's end for the cost of labor.

I really like the idea of controlling the aux bank via android auto, but i'd have mild concerns about the screen failing and rendering all that stuff inoperable until its fixed. Plus the tactile feeling on actual aux-switches can't be beat...really wish ford would just let us install the raptor...

there is no difference in job 2 trucks with the j-brace issue. has already been discussed in a different thread

This is how ford described it on the official tech service bulletin that went out to all service departments
