Is this a good deal

I’ve been looking to join the raptor gang and came across this in my area (California) wondering if this is a good deal or should I keep looking. Also if I were to pull the trigger what are things to look for with this mileage and year thank you for your help!

Raptor or Tundra Platinum

Currently deciding between ‘25 Raptor 801A or the Tundra Platinum. Have the Raptor on order for delivery in mid Dec but drove the Tundra yesterday and liked it quite a bit more than expected. Won’t do too much off roading (mainly getting to skiing, fishing, hiking etc) and want to be able to fit the family - two kids 11 and 13, wife and a 90lb dog. Any thoughts from this group? Thanks!

2020 Roush Raptor $39k - 115K Miles?

There's a Roush Raptor for sale for $39,000 but with high mileage of 115,000 miles. Carfax shows consistent oil changes every 5-7 thousand miles.

I have a Ford XLT that is passing 300K miles on and wanted to ask if the ford raptor is just as reliable of a truck?

The ford dealership mentioned they just replaced the twin turbos as well recently.

I'm curious if I should move forward with it?

Avalanche vs Leadfoot

Have a Gen2 Leadfoot. Just pulled trigger on an Avalanche. Two best Raptor colors IMO.

Replace axle?

Looking at buying a gen 3 (2021). Oasis says it had housing for differential replaced as well as axle that had to be replaced. Both jobs were completed under warranty, but my question is… what would cause these items to fail? 50 foot jump? Trying to evaluate how it was treated in the past.

Picture for fun.

Need Advice

Hey guys I need a little advice about what to do with my truck. I have a gen 3 that got hit in a parking lot and I need a new Rack & Pinion. My truck has been at a ford dealership since LABOR DAY and Ford still has the part on back order with no ETA. I’ve looked for parts but I don’t wanna put a POS replacement part in. My question is, does anybody know of any reputable companies that make a replacement. Anything helps and thank you!

Gen 3- Bak Revolver x4s Question

I bought this cover for my new Gen 3 from real truck.com. Confirmed 3 times it was the correct cover before ordering lol! I installed the cover to find out the truck bed was 1/4" wider than what it needed to be in order for the cover to latch properly. Called customer service and they said I needed shims and that this is typical. One would think they would include the shims with the cover?! Anyways it was going to take them a month to get me the shims. I ended up 3D printing my own and got it to work just fine.

Anyone else have this issue with the same cover | their Gen 3? I'm curious to see if the tolerance on these trucks vary that much. Other than that, this is a great cover! Highly recommend....just measure before committing lol!

Bronco to 150

Had the opportunity to make a move from a BRaptor to 2 150 Raptors. Long story short, we were disappointed with the Bronco for long highway drives and fit and finish. Crazy wind noise, lots of hard top noise, and crazy amounts of dust with the windows closed. I am a big fan of Avalanche and the current keypad so had to make a move before MY2025

3rd Gen owners with airlift 1000 airbag. What's your experience with them?

https://preview.redd.it/ifazascri0yd1.jpg?width=4284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=231d982147ba7b16a029f4a2638ef21e14988e76

Followed the Equalizer weight distribution hitch manual and the rear is still sitting very low causing the headlight to shoot too high. The front wheel gap is identical to loaded vs unloaded and the camper is level with the slight nose down. But the issue I'm having is the porpoising on Wisconsin highways or concrete highways which can go on for miles and kill the long drives. Do the airbags help and are they reliable on the 3rd Gen Raptors?

Used Raptors, higher mileage but gold certified?

Starting on the process of looking to upgrade from a Jeep Gladiator and looking at used Raptors. I was thinking about a bronco but after running numbers it felt like the money in a fairly base one could be better used on a pre-owned Raptor. One dealership near me has a few available but a 2019 with 63,000 miles caught my eye. It’s listed at $48,600 and is gold certified, 802a package. CARFAX shows a minor sideswipe that was repaired.

Mainly since I haven’t researched raptors heavily since around 2016, would this seem like a decent deal on this generation and what should I look for? I do know the carfax does not show the phaser replacement I keep reading about but is the gold certification enough of a safety net for the major issues. This would be a daily driver, around 18k miles a year. Thanks for the help.

Ford ESP ‘address’

Florida has a law that requires dealerships to sell Ford warrantees at crazy prices. For example, a 4 year 60,000 mile ESP can run $5000 on Flood or Ziegler or even at the dealership. But, change the state to Maine or most other places, $2500-$3000 for the same warranty.

Can anyone speak to what happens if you ‘use a friends address out of the state of Florida? Obviously truck still needs to be registered in FL but does Ziegler/Flood etc actually check when purchasing the warranty? Do the dealerships check when going in for work?
