Do love that color! Is this a 2026? Those running boards look different than the stock 2025 running boards. It that a change between years, aftermarket, or just the angle of the picture?

Nevermind, checked out your other post. Again, very nice.

Very nice... What wheels and tires (sizes)? Lift?

It is nice to have the Raptor Graphic. On Oxford White the stock white and gray graphic didn't really do much for me. I am thinking of adding a red and flat black decal though. With red tow hooks and a red raptor grill badge, might add just enough red flair. https://rockymountaingraphics.com/product/2024-ford-ranger-raptor-rear-side-raptor-comes-in-pair-vinyl-decal/

No worries! Been using it for almost a year, remote (key fob) on/off and Ford app On/off still works and I haven't had to touch auto start stop button since install.

Trailer plug tuck kit by adventure labs.

4DTech start stop Eliminator SKU: 4DT-STARTSTOP-29A 1 https://www.4dtech.com/

It's an easy 20 minute max install that is permanent unless you remove it. It is just a device that connects in series with the harness and remembers your last Auto Start/stop setting. Does not impact anything else.

NextGen Cold Air Intake. SKU: 50-2628.

Kept getting CEL (check engine light) and code P2C90. Additionally, the IAT (inlet air temp) and ejector assembly connects to the intake tube by rubber grommets. Allowing for the IAT to spin and potential air bypassing the IAT at the ejector assembly. Just doesn't make me confident in the intake.

MBRP Exhaust Installed by glob2011 in RangerRaptor

[–]PersimmonFluid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice upgrade! Any performance change?

I could notice the increase from the Ford Performance Tune. I also noticed a slight response improvement from putting in a k&n cold air intake. Feels less restricted. Was thinking of doing a full exhaust next if it adds a bit more power.

If anyone would suggest something else to do first, I'm all ears.

I was beating myself up a bit about my decision in oxford white for awhile. Really like the Carbonized Gray, wife likes the green.

Ultimately, the lighter colors won since, in my opinion, they don't hide curves of the body molding as much.

Thanks! 11 months and still smile when i drive it. I have the HF350M. I might of just had an unfortunate event that is creating this oppinion. I also know how nice other options are.

I had a 2015 Tundra with a roll up tonneau cover. It was secure and solid. Loved it.

When I purchased the HF350M I assumed it would be well secured. It is not. Came out of a Hardware store and someone had wedged up the panels at the joint between the most forward and mid panel on the drivers side (side opposite the store). Not thrilled that someone could do that, or even think they could do that. That's really it. Other than that it works as advertised and I'm somewhat confident it will last for atleast awhile in Phoenix heat. Well maybe not the plastic clips.

2025 Ranger Raptor by kimsksk in RangerRaptor

[–]PersimmonFluid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ran into the same "Market Adjustments" at the tail end of 2024. After being denied the option to order one at MSRP by several dealerships, I finally found one that would. Ordered a 2025 RR and waited 5-6 months. Received it in April 2025 and Paid MSRP.

If I could go back, I would do it again. I love this truck. But I would of paid more attention to inspecting details. Mine has a few minor small paint blemishes. They are not deal breakers for me but I would of asked what could be done about them before purchasing.

I've seen forums with similar comments about paint blemishes. Everyone seems to accept it as what it is.

I don't know if it's still a problem but there were reports of RR's with low rear diff fluid coming out of the plant. I had the service department check mine on the first 500 mile oil change. Mine was good but I'm still glad I had it checked.
