Yes, fluids follow the path of least resistance, just like electrical current. Some cool air might be coming in the front snorkel, but the engine is surely sucking most of the intake from under the hood hot air in this setup.

Another option is to just pick up a cheap Bluetooth portable CD player and connect it to your media system wirelessly (like you would with your phone).

Can someone explain how this is considered a "CAI" if the top is open and it's just pulling heat soaked air from under the hood?

Nope. I've never subscribed to any satellite radio or audio streaming service. I have a household Emby media server that I can access and play all my movies, music, and audio books from anywhere I have wifi/phone signal access.

Black is such a pita to maintain and keep looking good. Always looks dirty and shows every paint imperfection, swirl, scuff, etc. I had a silver supercharged Nissan Frontier many years ago. The thing never looked dirty. 😂

Most things with electric motors tend to draw a large current during startup. Sometimes up to 10x larger than normal operating load. Circular saws require over 400 watts, and startup is probably a couple thousand watts. 400 watts isn't a lot of power. It's equivalent to a few bright...

I just had my grill off. It's all one piece.

Took my RRaptor 7 months to be built after I ordered it. If your dealer doesn't truly have an allocation, move on because they aren't getting one built for them.

I read stuff like this all the time, and my skeptical alarm always goes off, because over decades of buying about 30 different vehicles this has never once happened to me. 🤣

Update: My RRaptor showed up randomly yesterday. For people still waiting, I would not put any stock in the tracker other than "it's built". My delivery day flip flopped through a 1.5 month window several times, then mysteriously arrived.

I thought there was a thread debate about this. Some people said it's meant to be there (sound deadening?). I'm not sure what the official conclusion was.

I ordered these (455 hp) a few weeks ago in case they ever went away and you couldn't get them. On the fence of whether to use them, but they look good in the photo.

Title. What should I be on the look out during delivery inspection? Thanks.

Not really. My sales person told me that Ford corporate is wrong. So I have no idea what's going on or where the trucks is. The auto industry is rife with incompetent and pass the buck type of people.

That's my truck! (if it ever gets delivered) Can you do me a favor? Post the "blend date" number listed on the window sticker. That might give me an idea when mine might show up. The blend number is on the very top white border, just left of center.

Update: I call Ford corporate and they gave me the (city) location of the truck which is about 30 miles up the interstate from me. She didn't understand why the status tracker says middle of July for delivery. So I told my salesperson to track it down.

My "sales person" is next to useless, no surprise there. Guess I will call Ford directly and see what's going on.

My RRaptor was listed as "built" on 5/8/2025 and had a delivery date of next week sometime (5/24-5/30), the "Last Updated" date in the tracker hasn't changed since 05/14/2025. But checked the status this morning and it now says delivery date of 7/8-7/14, almost 1.5 month shift. WTH? Is this...

Yes. You need to find a RRaptor already on the lot, or a dealer with allocation, and/or consider a fly and drive. Even if a dealer has allocation there can be a very long wait for a retail order. There's a large dealer in the US that does a weekly video livestream (Long McArthur) that has 20...

I have everything but the floor mats, so let it be those. 😁
