  1. Best stubby antenna?

    What's the best stubby antenna for the 2025 Ranger Raptor? Easy to install? I need a few inches to fit it in my garage... My search skills are not seeming super sharp at the moment:... thanks!
  2. Uneven Tire wear - of course, but…

    I just turned 2900 miles on my 25 ranger raptor. Stopped by the tire shop for an air adjustment and they gave this measurement of tire wear. I still feel like I’m in the break in period, and while I will hit the gas from time to time I by no means treat this thing like a race car yet. I’m...
  3. Ranger Raptor locking diffs - are they different?

    I remain confused by the locking diff settings in the RR drive modes. Off Road mode and Baja mode each default to rear locker engaged. I understand this vehicle to be made for (and it's certainly marketed for) high speed rallying off road. Certainly Baja mode seems to be intended for such high...
  4. Broken camera - this sucks

    Well, I noticed this the other day. Super annoying. Thoughts on repair? Ford wasn't 600 for the camera alone. I'll do it, but if anyone has thoughts on a cheaper repair option I'm all ears.
  5. Drive modes details: how can I be good to my truck while flogging the sh*t out of it?

    Whelp, I'm 1200 miles on the odometer and just starting to step out a bit with this rig. First of all - oh my dog this thing is ridiculous. So loose, so powerful, so damn fun in the dirt and snow. Wow. Maybe too much truck. Or maybe not. Anyhow, to the point: I'm wondering if there are any...
  6. Motor oil and filter - does it matter what kind?

    I’m asking both for my anal retentive 500 mile oil change and also going forward. Does it matter what brand oil and filter I use if I stick to a diligent oil change schedule of 5000 miles once I have done my first several changes through the break-in? In particular, if I want to be lazy and...
  7. Temperature gauges - when is it warm?

    What is the normal running temperature for the RR by these gauges? I assume that the left one is engine coolant temperature, and that seems to be maintained at the top most point on the circle. That warms up pretty quick. Transmission temperature warms up much more slowly. Does it have an...
  8. What is the break-in period?

    My sales guy says 500 miles and keep it below 5000 RPM. AI says 500 miles and keep it between two and 4000 RPM, vary the throttle, avoid wide open throttle, and don’t drive like a granny. Anyone have any definitive informed opinion? He laughs as he asks that question on the forum.
  9. Mud Flaps vs. rocks

    Anyone had experience with off roading (rallying or rock crawling) their RR with mud flaps on? RokBlockz claim the following: EXTREME DURIBILITY: Designed to protect your Ranger Raptor in the harshest environments. FLEXIBLE (Not Floppy): Bend and flex over any terrain, but hold their shape...
  10. OK, she's here, what do I do to her first? (request for recommendations)

    Whelp, this is quite a moment for me. Super stoked for this new rig. This pic is within an hour of delivery, realized I hadn't taken a snap of it yet :) I'm going to enjoy it as it for awhile, but I'm also aware that there are some things to make it even better, I guess that's part of the fun...
  11. Experience w uShip, Shiply, vehicle transport/shipping companies?

    I'm starting to get quotes for shipping my new RR from AR to CO. Feeling a bit nervy to use these marketplaces, and would love the benefit of anyone's experience. My key priorities are getting the car undamaged, and timing. It appears there's ~$500 difference between a specific one day...
  12. Does a ranger raptor track my driving?

    I read somewhere that some modern vehicles will report to the mothership about your driving location, habits, etc. Does Ford do this with its software? Is there an opt-out or a way to disable? What data about me are shared with Ford or any other party? Thanks for any thoughts or pointers to...
  13. Is PPF worth it?

    TL;DR Would PPF be worth it for my new RR? I plan to use the truck for moderate off roading on trails, and I'm excited to hoon the crap out of it in the desert. Also as a daily, which I'm stoked about. I live in a CO mountain town, so the roads always seem to have crap on them that gets...
  14. Thoughts on extended warranties?

    Dealer is offering an extended warranty on my new RR. bumper to bumper 2900 for 6y/120K. It doesn't fire my engines, but wanted to ask for thoughts on whether this is worth it? I have very little experience buying new vehicles. I do like the idea of an extended warranty. I'm wondering if there...
  15. Placed a deposit on a RR - stoke is high!

    Very excited to plan for the arrival of this beast. Thanks to all for the input thus far, and going forward. I'll post a number of questions on separate threads, and pics when she arrives...
  16. What to expect - markup? under MSRP?

    I'm balking at the $5K over MSRP the local dealer wants to tack on for a RR. Thoughts on how to address this in negotiation? I want the truck but can't stomach paying over MSRP for a 2025 in December...
  17. Bronco Rapor vs Ranger Rapor - drive feel, anyone familiar with both?

    TL;DR - Does anyone have experience with both Ranger Raptor and Bronco Raptor? I'd love comments on driving feel and how they compare. Longer: I am deciding between a Tacoma Trailhunter and a Ranger Raptor. I test drove a BR the other day (couldn't find a RR on a lot where I was). It blew me...
