Last week I tried booking an oil change online for my company rental F150 XLT and got a call back in about 5mins from the dealership, but instead of confirming the appointment they tried selling me another F150 and now they won't stop calling.

That being said, most likely I'll drive it stock for awhile, and depending on how it goes I might add the supercharger later.

Got tired of waiting and needed a new truck. So found one on a lot and picked one up. Star white platinum, fx4 with the two tone leather. Looks super clean. Picking it up tomorrow.
Won't stand out quite as much as the one I had optioned out, but I think that's probably a good thing. And I like this interior better than the all black.

And I read that the Raptor might not fit on the tracks in car washes due to the extra width. I knew that before, and was willing to just wash it by hand everytime. But at least now I’ll have the convenience of being able to just run it thru if I want.

I looked at the manual and the first thing it says is not to take the truck in for warranty work,as this noise is normal and caused by the fox shocks .
Another thing I didn’t like was the steering . I find it’s tougher to steer with the factory 35” all terrain tires , as it seemed to wander too much , especially on ash fault that has had a lot of traffic on it .
Others tried driving it and didn’t notice , but I found it annoying.
My 2016 Lariat is much better and steers perfectly imo . I like the heated steering wheel also, as my raptor didn’t cone with that option .
