  1. Rear axle weight limit?

    Anyone know? A fellow Raptor owner had to do an emergency transport of his friend's bike. It's around 250kg, well within the Raptor's payload, although we were concerned about the load on the rear axle.
  2. Anyone been having trouble with Apple CarPlay?

    Sometimes it gets wonky and I assume it's just a dodgy cable and usually things work fine when I use a newer cable. But recently all my cables stopped activating CarPlay (although my phone still gets charged, and I can still play phone audio through Sync). I tried using a friend's cable and...
  3. Other pros of steel bumpers?

    If I lived in a country where fast-moving wildlife suddenly cross the road (kangaroos, deer, emu, depends where you live), I see the point of steel bumpers. But wildlife isn't an issue where I am, so are there any other pros to having steel bumpers?
  4. Anyone changed their OEM Raptor wheelset?

    The spokes of the stock wheelset stick out a bit, and they can get dinged when going off road. I'm wondering if it's worth it to get a more dished wheelset. But then, if the tires stick out, it might compromise suspension articulation (tire could hit the fender in rough ground). I'd appreciate...
  5. Took my Raptor on a trail for the first time

    I should've taken more pics, but anyway, I took a beginners trailing class since the Raptor is basically my first "useable" 4WD vehicle (I've got an old Range Rover Classic, but that's a garage queen :blush: ). It's freaking amazing what this vehicle can do, and as the quote goes, it's great to...
  6. Tire pressures for trailing?

    What tire pressures are you running off pavement? I'm on the stock 285/70 R17s, and this is my first time to have 33s.
  7. Apparently 37% of Ranger Raptors sold are in the Philippines.

    https://www.topgear.com.ph/news/industry-news/10k-ford-ranger-raptor-ph-promo-a4354-20201205?fbclid=IwAR3aaQg2F2CuzMTR6_xAOo8Ah24dt4gSvErv8vascPYm1LLRHpltWLpUd1I Ok, kinda weird. But part of the reason is because of the way pickups are taxed in the Philippines, which makes the Raptor relatively...
  8. 4H on wet pavement?

    Would you ever do it? I've got a Ranger Raptor on stock BF Goodrich K02s. I noticed this weekend that they didn't have good wet weather grip (conditions: mountain road, up and down inclines, slippery due to a thin film of mud/soil). Would you turn on 4H in these conditions? I didn't because I...
  9. What's the total payload?

    Kinda weird, I can't find a figure for total payload online. The various reviews and even official Ford websites have payloads ranging from low 600kgs to high 700kgs (I guess each country makes different assumptions regarding number of passengers and fuel?). Even the Raptor supplementary manual...
  10. Has anyone taken out the Raptor decal?

    I'm thinking of taking it out for a cleaner look. Also, will a heatgun or hair dryer work on the decal? I think this part of the car isn't metal, so I dunno if that trick is fine on composite (or whatever the rear fender is made of).
