Yes, good thing. The new F-150 interior looks so much better and supposedly has a better fit and finish. It was terrible in the Raptor. I guess we will see when the Raptor R comes out which one I’ll go with. Though I’m thinking I’ll probably skip year one and let every else pay the premium if I go that direction. Maybe just get a 911 with a trailer hitch 😂

Granite two tone. Only mono colored offered is black, which is a great color for a garage queen, but terrible for a daily driver. Happy to have a nice interior again, going from BMW to Ford was rough. I liked the Raptor, but have hated the interior every day I’ve owned it.

Probably, just crazy since people are still paying a premium for any truck on the lot right now. Officially re-ordered with a $10k savings. Sure glad I decided to check out the TRX group.

Now at $10k off! Kind of crazy, I'm guessing there are a couple dealers that come out ahead just ordering a ton of vehicles.

If I was going to go that far I would just buy something with tracks and a turbine.

Definitely. Looks like they are a popular dealer on the TRX forum, seems pretty legit.

Found a dealer that offers $9k off a ordered TRX! Will probably lose my $500 deposit but I’ll still be $8500 ahead.

That looks really good, very professional. I don’t think you give yourself enough credit.

Good info, we will have to link up whenever it comes in. No E85 here only 93. I'll probably stick with things that don't break the warranty or can easily be reversed if I do have to take it in. I would never hear the end of it if I toasted a motor that couldn't be covered. I do really want a 911 Turbo S, maybe some day when my earthworm farm takes off.

We don’t let him drive yet, need him manning the ‘shine still.

MSRP from a local dealer. It’s .3” longer than the Raptor and 1.2” wider, so it should feel exactly the same. Since 702 HP isn’t enough, any recommendations on tuners for it?

I already get a whopping 13 mpg on the Raptor so it’s not a terrible difference. This or the Raptor R will probably be my last gas vehicle so might as well end it with something fun.

Guess I need to put some ceramics on it.

Decided I'm sick of the shitty interior in my '17 Raptor. I really want the Raptor R with the Coyote motor but it's going to be at least another year. Going to order a TRX or ecoboost '22 Raptor in the meantime and get the Raptor R when it becomes available. Or the Hellcat TRX if I end up liking it. Thoughts?

Looking at flights now….

I’m short, and he is eight. It’s the thought that counts.

A little better, I’ll probably live with it since it’s perfectly function and will remind me what not to screw up.

Always been curious how those sounded. Maybe down the line. Worked a little more on the bench. Planed it down and cleaned up the rest. Applied the first coat of Tried and True.

Probably going to cut my teeth on one of these designs. http://www.troelsgravesen.dk/Diy_Loudspeaker_Projects.htm

I know, it’s on the list, I just know I’m going to want to go crazy and build something nice. Jodi was sick of hearing about my Roubo after the first week. Can’t imagine how she will react when I build some speakers she can’t even hear 😂

Pretty simple, female is V carved .11 with a 60deg bit, male is cut at .02 with a start depth of .09 with the same bit. Male is a mirror of the female. Then glued up and clamped. Once dry the male portion is cut of on the bandsaw (could also surface it off on the CNC but bandsaw is way quicker). Then sand.

That resaw looks awesome. Finally got some time to work on the bench today. Knocked out building the deadman with a walnut inlay to carry on the theme. Also cut and glued down the deadman rail. So close, just need to build the center divider. Then clean up and finish.

Is it haiku Tuesdays?

OMG that is a terrible run of misfortune. Fortunately you made it out mostly unscathed. On a positive note you are all set for beatnik poetry night. Just need to find your beret. I’ve read multiple times about the Incra cause of Saw Stops to trigger. Clamp rack looks great!

I would have voodoo dolls made in my likeness.
