I agree. Hadn't really paid attention but the '18 Raptor appears to have the same headlights as the '15-'17 150's.




2018

Raptors aren't my thing.

 

No, they're shiny.... I am not a fan of bright colors and therefor, red is out.

 

The "long bed" I'm referring to is the 6.5' bed. That's the longest bed you can get on the crew cab. I don't like the look of leveled really either. That's why I replaced my rear block as well. Maintained a little rake.

 

Here is mine: 2016 King Ranch V8 Screw FX4, Bronze Fire/Caribou, 6" Lift, Fox 2.0 Coilovers up front, Fox 2.0 in rear, Airaid MXP Cold Air Intake with SynthaMax Dry Filter, Magnaflow MF Cat Back Exhaust - 19054, 35x12.50x20 Toyo Open Country R/T, Ceramic Tint on Front to match rear windows, Z-Edge Z3 Dash Cam

 

I was informed the center part of the grill will work, starting to do research to see if it actually will fit. I think the large Ford block letters gives it a more aggressive look to the front.

 

I always equate the long bed as 8'. When I was doing some online builds before my misfortune with my 2008 F150, I saw you could not configure a crew cab with and 8' bed, bummer. I did like the 6.5 on my 08 but wished sometime it was an 8 footer.

The Ruby Red one I had my eye on was 5.5 bed with 23 gal tank, but did have a 5.0 under the hood with the 10 speed trans. Not a fan of the 5.5 bed and the 23 gallon tank.

 

Nice looking truck!

 

Thank you!

 

TiGa70, That is a very nice set up. I agree, a pickup should have a little rake!

 

TiGa70 that King Ranch is beautiful! I like that you kept factory wheels. My Dad has a 15KR same color combo with only 8k miles.

 

 

Oh, I like that. What was once the most popular cab/bed combo is now the rarest. My how times have changed.

 

Thank you!

 

Thank you! I was considering going with different wheels; however, I wanted to see how the stocks would look first. I wasn't too sure about them before the work was done, but I really like how it turned out. Plus.. it never hurts to save all of that money! haha.

I personally love that color combo too. I searched several dealerships to find it. And 8K miles on a '15. That's going to be a nice rig for a long time.. it sounds like.

 

Must not do any emissions/inspections testing or look under the hood where you are located. That Airaid setup would never fly here in Texas.
