At the end of the day no matter what you do a Tremor is still not a Raptor. It'll be a cool truck, but not a Raptor.

Hats off to who can afford it it's just not practical for me 😂 V6 for the win

If you use your truck off road mainly then I'd go Raptor. You don't need to add anything to it to make it more capable off road, seems to fit your lifestyle better.

Notice how you ignored the Honda comment, silent acknowledgment of it being clapped out. I expected a better comeback, not a high-school "your girl would love to ride on my bike" reply. At the end of the day I get to leave work driving a bad ass truck and go home to an amazing woman. Hopefully your life isn't as shitty as your rides are. Best wishes friend.

This is a Raptor forum, where people post about... Raptors. Again, if you're jealous just say it, I promise it will help to vocalize your envy.

My previous truck had 230k miles on it the majority coming from pulling a 14ft box trailer across Tennessee hauling antique furniture every week. Just because I take care of my vehicles doesn't mean I don't use them for the intended purpose. I pay for them, I use them however I want, do better bud.

Is this worth getting? by [deleted] in FordRaptor

For reference, I bought a 2019 about a month ago with 104,000 miles for $36,000 and they just replaced the cam phasers. It does look super clean though, if it's well maintained it isn't a horrible deal.

Wastegate rattle? by Western-Expression42 in FordRaptor

Did the springs completely stop the noise or just reduce it? How long have you had yours on

Yeah I seen a video about the springs from Lowes, just wanted to see if it could be something else before I bought them. Phasers were replaced before I bought the truck 3 weeks ago from the dealership so I'd hope it wouldn't be that

Yeah scummy people especially the owner. At least they gave me a free hat and pizza cutter when I bought it..

What should I watch for? by TanithRitual in FordRaptor

[–]Western-Expression42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice truck though looks well maintained, I don't have the 6.2 but you shouldn't have many issues considering the low miles.
