The tow mirrors are good for clearing the way

Not sure what you are paying for the tow mirrors. But 1aauto.com, Sells them for about 450 ish with the power fold option. If you already have the power fold option on your stock mirrors then they will work. Even got the running lights and turn signals. Check them out they are very helpful with any questions you may have.

Surprisingly enough, I am getting about 1.5 mpg better in the 6.2 than I was in my ecoboost.
I noticed that to until I threw a tuner on it lol

The Raptor is a cool truck.
I would not mind having one myself, but they are a little out of my price range for now.

Just shop around and be willing to drive. Ford offered 1.9% for 72 months on certified pre owned F150s the last month or so.
