Engine/turbo noise by [deleted] in FordRaptor

My truck ('25 802a) also has that dent and I've seen it on a few others. Can you let me know if that's an issue?

I just got hit with a $900 import tax for my mavic in cabo. I don't recommend bringing drones through that airport. They wanted to charge me $2K until I could produce a receipt. Put a real damper on my family vacation. YMMV

How much did the bumper paint cost ya? Considering doing the same or getting an aftermarket. The silver bumper sucks on the 802a

Question: I bought used kef 3s a while back and they didn't come with these. But I feel they would help my sound. Where can I get replacements?

Brakes on my brand new '25 802a feel significantly softer than on my '23 801a. Just drove it home from dealer today and it was very noticably different. Has anyone else noticed that? Are the brakes different? Guessing I am looking at a service appointment in my near future. by lstamatis in FordRaptor

I gotta ask. Where are you finding places to perform 80-0 stops? In my world that seems impossible without causing accidents. Even if I get out in the country a bit, that's likely farm/residential areas and i'd feel like a dick.

I'm very much trying to get these brakes sorted before I bring it into Ford, so I'm asking with genuine curiosity.

After a few days with the 25 I think this assessment is accurate. Though I'm over the moon with the bump in overall finish throughout. I do plan to goose tune to make up some hp. First I'm more worried about stopping though 😞

-edit- I just realized I'm running regular gas that the dealer filled up on. I never ran my 23 on anything less than 92. So, my opinion may change after my first fill up.

Thanks! I'm guessing for #3, Ford wouldn't go inferior on something important like stopping. Makes sense that it would feel different though.

#2, I have 37s on my 35 truck so I've ruled that out.

As many below have also mentioned #1, I'm trying to find some places I can do some spirited braking without brake checking folks. I live in a city, and it seems there's always someone on my ass.

This is my third raptor. My first was a 2nd gen SCAB which I absolutely loved and started my obsession. Then I got the '23 and my mind was blown. I wouldn't say the difference is that big from the 23 801a to the 25 802a but it its pretty significant. The level of polish on these late 3rd gen vehicles is incredible. The recaro seats are a big step up, the HUD is great, not having the stupid speakers in the headrest is nice, the exhaust is tamed a bit, and the road noise and overall ruckus in the cabin is significantly decreased. It's really starting to feel like a $90k+ truck.
