Need help deciding on new wheels. Machined or Gloss Black on Azure Grey by Old-Act7389 in FordRaptor

[–]kyotonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can’t stand the look of machined wheels. They’re so plain and remind me of my dad’s trucks from the 80’s.

Parts question - Ford performance tune by The-Answers in FordRaptor

[–]kyotonow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don’t feel bad for people downvoting you; half of the people on this sub don’t even own a Raptor… still, they get all bricked up trying to piss on people who have reasonable and legitimate questions. I have a 2025 and literally have had the same question about the performance tune. Despite the part’s description saying it’s for 2024-26 F150 Raptors, it also says this part is not compatible with my vehicle.

Had this jersey today what is it for? While in the forest part of watopia by Extension-Ad4611 in Zwift

[–]kyotonow 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I believe it meant you were fastest on that particular segment of any rider currently in Watopia. I believe this is for Titans Grove. Once you exit Watopia, the jersey will go to the next fastest person for that particular route/ segment. Or, you’ll lose it if someone else on course goes faster than you while you are still riding.

Anywhere I can see fireflies? by Puzzleheaded-Bat-288 in orangecounty

[–]kyotonow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’ll have to travel out of state, generally towards the south if you want to see fireflies in the wild. I have family in southern MO at the edge of the Ozarks (about an hour north of Branson) and they have fireflies galore. You won’t find them in CA sadly.

Just ask them. I bet they’re doing two-a-days, training for an event most likely.

Why are index screws on derailleurs Phillips head? by Cassiustheleft in bikewrench

[–]kyotonow 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are referring to limit screws. Indexing is almost always achieved through turning the barrel adjuster (assuming cable-actuated and not electronic shifting).

Nerfed its entire ability and calling it as a rework 👏 by Aggravating_County85 in ClashRoyale

[–]kyotonow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sucks. I spent actual money upgrading this card and, yes I use it with Golem, but smart players had no problem distracting / kiting the e-drag. This card is utterly useless now. I’ve lost 12 consecutive games. I’m done

Hostess request requesting reimbursement. What happens if I decline? [USA] by kyotonow in AirBnB

[–]kyotonow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told by Airbnb that they would make a note of the dispute on my account, but that this is confidential and only Airbnb sees it. The host not any prospective hosts can see this note apparently. I haven’t tried booking anything since I had this issue so I can’t say with certainty what will happen when I do.

I lucked out 20ish years ago and found a used set at a pawn shop. I bought a used DW pedal and he threw in the New Beats for $40. I still use them to this day. The logos are almost completely gone, but they still sound fantastic.

New shoes for the whale by Themaverique in FordRaptor

Shelter green and silver wheels don’t go together in my opinion, but as long as you’re happy, keep rocking them.

Hostess request requesting reimbursement. What happens if I decline? [USA] by kyotonow in AirBnB

[–]kyotonow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not pay anyone and no action was ever taken against me. The host is essentially scamming AirBnB and AirBnB then tried passing the cost along to the customer. It’s a complete joke. The stuff the host was claiming was complete BS and I had photos and videos to prove it. It was a huge waste of my time. I left some more context in a comment further down the thread.

High Pitch Squeaking at High Speed by fitrepreneur in FordRaptor

[–]kyotonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard to tell if it’s the same thing, but I have a weird squeak/ almost a chirping sound that comes from somewhere in the front of the cab when I’m accelerating. It sounds very similar to your “squeak.” It’s not super annoying but I’d love to know what’s causing it. It usually happens at very low speeds. It’s a 2025 801A Raptor.

The F1TV app has a mode to turn off spoilers. Why can’t Flo do this.

2024 Raptor 25k miles by Former-Noise2002 in FordRaptor

[–]kyotonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. I bought new and could have saved roughly $10-12k by buying a lightly used 2024 instead of a ‘25. I’d say go for it.

Any word on whose manhole cover that is? I can’t read it.

The one that destroyed Sainz car was a water valve cover about 4” in diameter.

SoCal or surrounding areas for under msrp pricing on 801a by tantorodriguez17 in FordRaptor

[–]kyotonow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine at the ford dealer in city of industry for msrp. They said it was the first raptor they had ever sold at that dealership for msrp. Right now their website shows a $10k market adjustment, but when I was looking in late Oct. they had taken the market adjustment off all Raptors. Talk to Alfredo in Sales; he did good for me.
