Default Raptor issues?

My next investment is probably goin to be a raptor. I've heard alot of people say they've had starting issues with it? Like it doesn't turn over right. Anyone else have this problem or heard about it??

Other then a clunking in the front suspension that Ford claims is normal and the usual MFT issues, mines been fine.

The MFT issues are pretty much gone now sense they wiped / reinstalled / updated everything.

Both rubbers came off and grease went out.

No motor issues on my 6.2 Raptor whatsoever. The two issues ive had is the housing that keeps teh gast tank door closed has broken and so now whenever i turn right or hit big bump it flies open. That will get fixed with my next oil change. Other prolem im having I also had on my last F150 so I think its a Ford problem. That problem is that my windshield sprayers keep getting clogged and wont spray. I had them replaced once on my last truck and now twice ont he Raptor. they will work for a few sprays then they clog again.

your only issue is that you're talking about "an investment"
it's not an investment, just a nice truck
