Hi all,

Just joined the forum after taking delivery of my Raptor a couple of weeks ago. So far I’ve had the front silver components sprayed black, fitted spacers whilst waiting on some Method 305’s to arrive, and removed the decals from the rear.

One question (and apologies if this has been answered elsewhere), can the sports hoop thing be removed whilst retaining the factory Ford roller shutter? I can’t stand the thing!

Just went snooping around on the 6G site and a person from Ford was communicating with Peasley about his truck. They must like to monitor what is being said. I am from Ford and am here to help.:bandit:

Who is this user from Ford?

I have a few questions regarding my rubber band 3rd gear shift at 31k miles ?

And to the OP, SWEET ride.

Thinking about looking at one myself.

Wasn't really considering one until a green one appeared in my area.

Caught my attention, it did.

Do you mean the guy that asked to buy my hoop? How do you know he’s from Ford?

I just can't for the life of me figure out why they wouldn't want to hang with this great group of guys.

I visit the 6G often, because I'm thinking of getting one.
90% of the time the Ford "person' makes a comment about something, but never answers anyone's questions.

i think it‘s pretty much the same as with the 5th gen. so, no. without this useless spoiler u will have a gap between shuttercase and sidewall. tried it with my wildtrak 3.2. i removed all that useless lifestyle stuff then and use it like a truck with open bed now.
with a raptor and that ladder rack u would be unique, indeed! ?
