2010 Raptor F150. I test drove one when they first were released with the 5.4L engine and said "No thanks". Then the 6.2L became an option and I jumped on one ASAP. No ADM, paid less than sticker. Those were the days...

In the software I've used on the ham and GMRS radios I have, 100% yes. That is my go-to, no way am I going to remember frequency numbers!

When I programmed my Yaesu radios I put the GMRS freqs in memory channels 001-040 and the ham bands far away from them in the 300-400 memories. Haven't had any issues so far.

I haven't used Yaesu's software but can say the RT Systems programmers work very well, worth the $25 license. I wouldn't bother with RT's cables as I found it much faster to enter your freqs and settings on a computer, write to a micro sd card and move the sd card to the radio to read.

My MARS-modded Yaesu FTM-500 head unit mounted on a Mountains2Metal Over Head Squatch Basket with the basket part cut off so I could mount the unit on it. I used a 20' cat-5 (cat-6? Don't remember, it doesn't matter) network patch cable to connect to the body of the radio. The radio body is...

Had a ham/GMRS radio antenna mount custom made and welded to my tailgate brace:

Installed a Mountains2Metal tailgate limiter. Very exciting...

It only took me 4 months but I finally managed to clean up the Yaesu ham radio gloxebox wiring. From: To: Much better!

Six years ago the owner (then owner?) says he turned down $500k for it.

Out with the GMRS radio, in with the ham radio (Yaesu FTM-500). I still need to clean up the wiring but I started losing the light and that was enough for today.

Do you have a write-up or a video on how to do this? I am installing a Yaesu (FTM-500) ham radio in the glove box and have the control box on an improvised mount above the driver's sun visor. Where I'm stuck is how to route the control cable. Getting above/around the winshield is easy but...

I'm pretty sure it is not something I did, I think Ford might have done it after the last OTA software update. When I remote start, then get in and press the start button, the rear defroster, driver seat, and steering wheel heaters now turn themselves on. It's not a bug, it's a feature...

Finished installing the Hooke overhead MOLLE panels. You do not have to take the roof panels off to install these, it is MUCH easier to install if you do remove them.

Wow, a one-year-only trim? I wonder if HB Ford is going to bump their ADM on the ones they have on the lot from (last time I looked) $40k to $100k?

(Yesterday) I installed the Suma Performance mirrors, love them! I did have an odd issue doing the install, but... OK, I guess???

OK, this is weird. Yesterday I pushed and pressed the mirror mount as much as I could in every direction. Thinking I was missing something, I had another guy try his hand at moving the mirror mount. He also had no success. That's it, forget it for tonight and give it another whirl tomorrow...

Did you press down on the original mirror very hard and the mechanism popped back into place? I can do that but am nervous about it.

I received my @Suma Performance mirrors today and followed their video example of how to remove the factory mirror. Now that mirror is jammed in the UP position and won't move in any direction. Any suggestions on where I may have gone wong? Here is where I am stuck right now:

I hadn't had a vehicle without leather seats and carpet in 30 years so I was pretty nervous about going with the MGV seats and rubber flooring. After 10 months of having my Badlands I'm liking it 100% with zero regrets. A couple of spills cleaned up in a flash with no staining and dirt and...

I asked my No-ADM dealer what would have happened if I had received a golden ticket to upgrade my BadSquatch reservation to a BRaptor. I was told there was no-way, no-how they would sell it to me at sticker, it MUST be marked up at least $25k. OK, let's do some math... Optioning a BRaptor the...
