  1. Seems odd, try doing a remote start and see if it acts the same way. Whats your settings? I know that Remote Start only triggers part of the A/C system and then when you turn it ON the rear vents start blowing...I have a '22, shouldn't make a huge difference. Also here in Florida, #floridaman

  2. I love mine, WARN has already sent me a new Wireless controller as the first one "died" surprisingly in the first year. No idea... but either way, I've had to use my Wired controller at least 50% of the time. Frankly, you get spoiled with this and I'd seriously have regrets about not having a winch on a future vehicle.

  3. Anyone in South Florida to give this a try? I've got a fully specc'd Carli E-Venture F350 and want to see how the Gen 3 Raptor compares, especially with back-seat comfort. Anyone want to be my truck friend and give this a go? 😄 I don't know anyone with a Raptor, much less a new one. All my neighbors have stock SD's, except one has a Super Baja (which I assume is in the same boat as me), lol.

  4. Hi all! I've been stalking the forms for a while, regular Tremor forum member though as I own a '22 F350 Tremor (and love it).

     

    I'm seeking a friendly Owner that wouldn't mind my giving my wife and I a simple test drive in their Gen 3 Raptor (preferably one with the 37 package). We live in Fort Lauderdale, and honestly wouldn't mind throwing a few bucks for someone's trouble. I love my Tremor, but the family absolutely hates it, even dropped 20k into a full Carli E-venture system...which helps, but even lowering the tire pressure to 50 Front 40 in the Rear, doesn't move the needle enough. With two babies in the back and 90% of the time I'm unloaded.

     

    I threw 650 lbs of mulch in the bed today to see if that was enough preloading of the suspension to help...and while it helped, it still blows for rear-passenger ride quality. I've contemplated getting a 1k lb wake-boarding ballast bag, but as I don't have a boat that needs it...I'd literally be throwing money away if it doesn't work.

     

    My goal is to just drive around the neighborhood in someone's Gen 3 Raptor as a Dealership won't let me do such a thing. I have access to plenty of regular F-150's, but not only am I not interested in one, they obviously have a different suspension. I do use the full bed frequently to haul stuff, so it would be a pain to have a shorter-bed...but having the family off my ass and getting 15 MPG instead of 7 would outweigh that inconvenience. (And yes, thats what the 7.3 L gets in the city on average or in traffic).
