    2017 scab. Love this thing! Been out on a few Raptor runs with ROC group driving my 2006 Dodge diesel dump truck that's built. Still have that, but this will be a great addition for sure.

    This site use Tapatalk? So much easier to load pics.

    You will want to keep an an eye on two things. Your 17 has a plastic oil that many had leaks with. Just monitor it for that. Ford reintroduced a metal pan in mid 2018 to combat the problem.
    Also, listen on cold starts for a rattle. That will be your cam phasers failing. This has grown into a widespread problem and Ford has a new TSB coming before the end of the year to try and address. Who knows, this one might fix it, but they have tried several with no success.

    Congrats on your new Raptor. Enjoy it. In case you couldn't go to the Raptor Assault there's a Raptor owner/s who taped it and posted the vid to U-tube.

    Take advice from other Raptor owners. bravo3dumbo doesn't own a Raptor and is the local troll in regards to the 3.5 engine FYI
