I'm driving less than i was when gas was $3.50 a gallon gas prices never really affected where I want to drive. I was driving the raptor off road for fun due to living in Utah and doing fun out door stuff on a regular basis

Ford did the same thing to Ferrari over the F150 it comes to a point where it is all about trademark protection, I don't think anyone currently owns the GT trademark I see Fords, GT, Mustang GT, GT 500, GT350, MB AMG GT, Toyota GT 86, Aston Martin Vantage GT, Porsche Carrera GT, Alpha Romeo GT, Nissan GT-R

The manual is only available on the 2wd 4 cylinder extended cab WT trim

I bought my 2010 Raptor in 2011 with 10k on the clock for $37k with 90k on the clock now it is probably worth the same as the Colorado you described you just have to get the 5.4L instead of the 6.2L . it is also likely that in a year and a half when the 2017 Raptors come out the price will collapse on the 2010-14…

Yup its the G80 and it mechanically engages after there is slippage , the problem can arise when it doesn't engage fast enough, and I've been there done that, after some issues in the mountains of Colorado on steep drop offs I decided I like the ability to lock my rear end on command.

I have HDC on my Raptor and have only used it a few times mostly to show people look at this but it helps keep the transmission in first gear so it doesn't up shift on automatic transmissions, and puts more force on the rear brakes to the fronts don't lock up hindering steering, there has only been one time that i…

Most air lines lease a portion of their fleet though leasing companies as to not tie up capital and allow fluctuation between peak travel periods if they are based in a confined region. More than likely the Ryan Air Jets you saw where either bought from ryanair or returned from lease and hadn't been repainted, as the…

I'd get the full size range at that price or save some dough and get the rrs atb still plenty quick and loud and it has already set records crossing the open quarter and pikes peak the svr seams more track focused and less rounded compared to the rest of the line up

My 2010 ford raptor has gotten some dents on the bed and tail gate, I left them it's a truck but when I got in an accident it was parts and panel swapping nothing got "repaired". Also the insurance companies at least mine didn't know I had a raptor till my accident (mine shows up as an xlt to my insurance co and dmv)…

actually for the past 16 years ford has been ahead over all and it has pulled out a strong lead since 09 There are several sites that report on quarterly sales like pickuptrucks.com. Here is a link with long term trends. http://m.fool.com/investing/gene…

My guess is it has something to do with the fleet average fuel economy, I know many families that own one to tow and carry their families, in addition to government and fleet uses, but i think there was also a sales drop off on the 900s as they dropped the 8.1l and the 6.0 was very underpowered so the case for the 3/4…

In Arizona If there is still money on the plate when you sell or wreck the vehicle it can go on the new car Thats why my parents have had the same plate on 2002 m3 2004 Jetta TDI 2012 Passat TDI and 2015 Passat TDI and the Same plate on a 1999 Suburban and 2012 Tuareg. Additionally my parents have a 93 Taurus SHO…

On the Trucks costing $60k the auto makers have actually made the Luxo barges seem like a real value If you want a f350 crew Cab 4x4 Diesel with a couple options vinyl seems and crank windows it is a $50,000 Truck the range toping platinum is the same configuration is $64k but normal can be found on dealer lots with…

Top Gear doesn't always film segments in order of broad cast some of their segments where clearly filmed over the summer and broad cast in the winter. They where spotted with the raptor in Canada in Late November so they had to film then export the truck then have it clear customs get the MOT etc to get it to their…

Just about all my friends and Family are apple users

1 completely agree driven rental vans and they are dread full to drive. Completely numb and disconnected.

I agree I 'm a fan of Doug but I think that it's just vocal people on jalponik that like wagons just like mini pickup fans on other websites lamenting how big Tacoma frontier et al have gotten then say they drive an f150.

I don't understand the people who think that they need child separation zone of three rows or captains chairs when they only have 2-3 kids. This coming form the oldest of 6 kids. My parents also never owned a mini van, my parents are very out doors oriented and they type that would regularly use 4x4. My Father was…

Personally I have had winter or studded winter tires on every vehicle (studded are seasonal only) They allowed me to safely leave Nashville at the posted speed limit on Tuesday despite the monumental amount of snow and ice on the road. Get a set of OEM take off wheels and some replacement sensors, and swap them out…
