Ha - no kidding! Too bad (I am assuming!) you didn’t have the keypad!!! Lots of poor/no cell areas in VT for sure ... I’m in the Burlington Area and there are even spots here - the only thing even resembling City in the state - with no reception. Crazy!!
Good to know about the battery - THANKS - I have loved this little feature and was stunned nobody else did it (just seeing the Colorado info now) and have used it ever since I had it over a decade ago . . . got to assume there is a simple, non-invasive, battery changing method! Thanks again.
Also - FYI - not that it is a huge deal but a little extra thing . . . if you run the code twice it'll lower the tailgate (if you have the auto open tailgate feature).
I have to say - I have had this feature on every vehicle I have owned since my 2010 Raptor and never had any battery issues. I was under the (false?) impression that it was a hard-wired feature . . . either way, I have been really pleased with it, use it almost daily and it has worked 100% of...
I will have it without a doubt. I have had nothing but Fords since the early 90's and have had the keypad on three Raptors, a fusion and Ranger. I often travel to areas for boating/hiking/biking etc where cell coverage is spotty (at best) and prefer leaving my keys in my inside the vehicle -...
I like the velocity blue . . . but not sure how the wait will be as it is a late addition. Otherwise torn between several - everything, with the exception of white and iconic, look really good in certain situations . . . may be deciding on the morning of December 7th.
Am down to two - for a while now
OBX
- Sasquatch
- Navy Pier Leather
- 2.7
- Upfit Switches
- Sound deadening if available
- Hard Top
- Keypad
- Bimini Canvas Top
- Floor Liners
- Lux Package
OR
WildTrak
- Leather (this is the dilemma - that lack of color options sucks!)
- Upfit Switches
-...
I’ve been back and forth between going with the OBX with Sasquatch/Leather Navy Gray/Lux/2.7 etc because the lack of color choices for the WT interior ... but seeing this really tips the scales back!! I’d like to go velocity blue but don’t want to wait ... maybe antimatter ... clock is ticking!
Yeah I am all-in. I am fine with the choices available (the poor color option on the WT may cause me to convert to an OBX with a bunch of options but I am not backing out).
17 Raptor & 19 Ranger . . . the plan is to sacrifice the Ranger when I take delivery. (Pardon the icy buildup on the Raptor - was a cold VT morning!) . . . and the wife drives a 2019 Mazda CX 5, son has a 17 Tundra (no pix of either)
Am expecting my extra Raptor wheels and tires will fit . . . purchased studded nokias and a set of dark metallic Granite alloy wheels last summer for winter wear and I'm hoping to utilize the same setup on the Bronco for the next couple winters as well.
Otherwise am fine with the wheels in the...
Personally I was hoping for the Velocity Blue - my 12 Raptor was VB and I loved that color - went with Black for the 17 Raptor (but only because of availability and my lack of patience) . . . my understanding is that the Velocity Blue choice will create a later delivery - if this is in fact true...
