AMA: My 2024 Ranger Raptor is Delivered! First Impressions 🔥🔥

[Soperfect]

I love it! Fit and finish is beautiful! Rides great! Seats are amazing! I love the placement of the start button. Sounds great! So many things to play with! Here are some pics, but it’s freezing up here. Happy to answer any questions or take more pics once I get it in the garage for the night

I am not jealous but I am 100% green with envy, congrats! A couple of questions. Somebody said you can use the R button in the F-150 Raptor to turn off the auto start/stop. Can you do that in the Baby Raptor and does it stay off once you restart the truck? 2nd question, can you check under the front seats and confirm the R2 has vents? Do they push heat or A/C, depending on what you have running? Thanks!

Very Nice - Congrats! I have two questions for you please.

First, is the dreaded Auto Start-Stop installed/operational on your new Truck?

Second, did you get in on the "$1,000 Factory Rebate for Pre-Order Customers"?

Thanks.

Enjoy that nice new Truck !

It has vents under seat, see pic and yes depends on front temp setting

When you push the R button you get the screen shown in other pic, but I need time time play with all the settings, but does seem like all those are preferred settings that can be set and entered with second push of R button it’s in the garage in accessory mode

Yes it does have the dreaded auto start/stop, button is in center console just in front of the arm rest.

My dealer is submitting for the $1,000 rebate and says it does not show an exclusion for the Raptor. I did not ask, but that makes me think the rebate is confirmed for other trims, but usually performance series are excluded, check mailed to me if not rejected.

I pick mine up in a week and can confirm my dealer added the $1k rebate to mine already.

I will be curious on what the gas mileage of the 3.0 v6 is after a 15-20 minute either freeway or just regular stop light town travel

The wheels. Would it be worth powder coating those wheels black or is that gray dark enough that you don’t really notice?

Could you elaborate on this Rebate? How would I go about processing one? Is there a thread talking about the Auto Start/Stop Rebate?

According to the Owners Manual, you can set the auto stop/start in MyMode, but it defaults back to normal mode at every start-up, meaning that you would need to press the R button twice to enter MyMode:

I called ford corporate to get info on my build. Someone from ford marketing notified me that I had a rebate but they couldn’t see what it was till I got my vin. When I received my vin I called back and they said it was a $1k rebate attached to my order. I got the certificate number for the rebate from ford corporate and then gave that to my dealer and they applied it to my order.

Good info - thanks for sharing with us!
It looks as though most of us with early orders will be getting a $1,000 Rebate from Ford
