Probably impossible to do the Watts link, you won’t have the mounting points or special rear axle to accommodate for it. I’ve also heard the frames on the RR are considerably different than non RRs. For power, look into the whipple intercooler and charge pipe upgrade. Doing it on a copart...
Ordered mine May 2023 and agreed to $3k markup. I’ve only paid markup on my GT350R Heritage, which I paid $110k for, which is maybe 30k over. That’s how some collectible cars are, for example, I bought my 1969 Mustang Boss 429 5 years ago for $180,000. New price on those was about $5000, so I...
The grid isn’t what sketches me out about EVs. It’s battery longevity, software issues over time, and firmware BS leaving people stranded. I also like collecting vehicles, and all of my gas cars from the 60s still work, but EVs will be E-waste in 5-15 years. Granted most crap normal cars are...
Judging by all the comments, I might just wait for my azure raptor to be built on 4/15. My dealer also has a black one in production and built 1/26 that I was gonna buy because it was first, but as the months went by and still no truck, at this point I will just wait for the azure. That is...
Heck yea, it was the opposite for me, my first truck was a 2012 f350 powerstroke, followed by our 2017 platinum dually. This will be the first modern midsize we get, but we have a SEMA prerunner long travel 94 Ranger, and we’re building a 72 Bronco with a blown Coyote and roadstershop rs4 frame...
Can’t wait for the tunes. I’m gonna leave my Ranger Raptor stock for a while, and probably do intercooler and tune on my Bronco Raptor instead. I’m hoping to eake out a little better mileage because I want the Ranger to tow an overland trailer, and since the Bronco has less tow capacity, might...
Only if you trust the techs at your dealership. I will personally be doing any install on my own truck myself. Granted I do own my own personal shops with lifts and probably have more tools that they have at my local Ford dealer. Still $200 seems inexpensive if they have to drill out rivets...
Paint match only works if you are blending, which means sanding and painting the truck everywhere where the new color comes close to the original paint. The colors might come close, but they never match perfectly. I would get the black powder coat for durability and looks. I’m probably gonna go...
LOL my window sticker says 16 City and 18 Highway. Worth a little bit more in fuel for the Raptor version though. Here’s a tip, buy a fuel tank for your property and get fuel loads brought out. I get 1000 gallons of red dye diesel for my skid steer and excavator, and at the same time 800 gallons...
I’m not mad because I just bought a Bronco Raptor in Code Orange. I’m now wondering if I’m making a mistake getting my Ranger Raptor in black. I ordered Azure Grey, but that one’s not scheduled until April 15 while the black one that was ordered a month after mine is built already. We shall see...
You will probably like the Bronco, we also got tired of waiting and bought a Bronco Raptor last weekend. I’m not sure if the little broncos are as good though. My local dealer had 4 new Braptors, and all were $3000-$4000 lower than MSRP, so it was a cool $95k. They told me my Ranger Raptor might...
Funny thing is insurance paid out so much that we fixed the truck and still had some left over, and we put the better looking Raptor taillights on it. It’s also kinda funny that we have only opened the tonneau cover on that truck a few times, because we have several other trucks to haul with, so...
I talked to Ford Chat yesterday about the Aruze Grey RR I ordered back in May, and it’s finally scheduled for the week of April 15. My dealer also has a shadow black RR ordered that my salesman is saying may be here in 1-3 weeks. While I was BSing with my salesman we started looking at some...
Wow a massive 240 hp and 440 ft lbs. I wonder how hard it would be to Coyote swap it like I did to my 03 Mach 1. Still a neat truck, just wish they would make another great single cab muscle truck like the 2nd gen lightning again.
Not sure about the rangers yet, but I have a Retrax pro on my 2019 platinum diesel f150. I like it, but learned tonneau covers aren’t as secure as I hoped. I parked my truck at my hotel in Houston during the last Mecum auction there, and some trash came by and pried up and ruined the tonneau...
So this thread is making me change my mind on my Raptor order. I ordered mine in azure with no graphics on May 26, and still have no scheduling. I was going to wait for azure, but my dealer also has a black Raptor with graphics that I get first choice of. My salesman sent me the window sticker...
I put 20s on my lifted diesel platinum f150, and love them. Not sure I would go that way on my Ranger Raptor, but I can say I didn’t see a huge hit on mileage. I would suggest getting good wheels. I went with vorsteiner vr601 flow formed wheels, made in California instead of china, and they...
Wow that’s a lot of lug nuts lol. I’ve never seen flow formed wheels with a universal lug pattern. I’m personally gonna get the HRE FT1s for my RR, cheap at only like $500 a wheel, and probably will go with 35 inch KM3s, the same as on both my Shelby raptors, and I don’t give two craps if the...
