I might got myself a Raptor, kind of accidentally

[Chris M]

Tracy, please confirm my parking technique is correct. I drove in to a parking house from left side and then crossed those little black things with yellow stripes and was on the right side. Just a little wiggle-wiggle with a tail for final correction and it was perfect!

I think it looks good from here, and your chosen mode of approach is quite appropriate for the model truck you have and the prevalent conditions at the time.
Well done!

Kristina, You need to keep visiting as much as possible. You do have a lot of friends here and are very interested in your Raptor. Also WOW your parking structures are awesome. Way more room to park and not worry about those dreaded door dings. Over here in the states they have shrunk all the parking spaces to accommodate more cars just like everything we buy these days with shrinkflation. I am sure that you are enjoying your new Ranger Raptor.

I'll bet dollars to donuts that some ass hat will park in the spot right next to you.

In a beater car too.

Where is everybody else? Is it like midnight?

Yep same story over here and our spaces were never that generous to begin with, compared to the US, because full size trucks were never that popular here, so my ranger pretty much fills a standard Aussie space, and leave you just enough room to get out - provided you're not too fat, and the idiot next door hasn't parked right on the line, or is in a truck like you, or god forbid, both.

Don’t be a stranger Kristina. Pop in once in a while and let us know how you and your Raptor are doing.

I won’t be.
We’re doing … sometimes interesting ?

Raptors meet.
Just another pick up to make and I parked my truck next to warehouse door after arrival. Stepped out of my truck and a guy at parking lot told me I have very nice truck. I lightly smiled and told him the same. He had exact same RR! Changing information with people with similar interests is always interesting

Another story. Got a call from municipal police about my parking. They sent out few guys to check the horrible crime scene while dispatcher called me. But I was 1 min drive away around the corner and during the call arrived to my truck - no one there! I asked for explanations what’s wrong and where are patrol officers. Turned out they left since there was no actual problem. Of course the one who made the call (not hard to guess, she was lurking behind me and my truck for a while) was also not there but probably hiding behind the curtain in the dark room.

She’s just jealous! Shame on her!

Maybe some of you who consider Raptor in the future would like some feedback time to time. Over 4000 km with my Ranger Raptor for now and I really love it. I can say I have found my truck, there is nothing better I could ask for. Yes, there are options on the market, but I didn’t like them, it wasn’t only Ford I checked before choosing Raptor.
Minus degrees bring icy roads and freeze tonneau cover. We’ll see how she handles winter roads but the bed cover got frozen at first possible moment and tailgate joined with it ?
Cleaned and lubricated them.

And now we have finally an option to buy F-150 here. I can choose between XLT 5.0L, Lariat 5.0L, Limited 3,5L hybrid or Raptor 3,5L
No test drive for me. I buy everything I test

Sounds like you need two trucks.

That sounds like a bad idea ?

Well, I think I know where Kristina can get a sweet deal on a barely used 2000 F250 Lariat Crew Cab 4x4.

Hey, @NeilP , will you ship to Estonia for free?

 

[Kristina]

You can notice she’s not very stock any more but prepared for some adventures waiting ahead.
I’ll continue with mods and building after I dig up pot of gold and find the perfect parts.

Anyone else notice Kristina never shows herself in pictures? Wondering if she's in Witness Protection Program?? ?
