I've had the stage 2 for a long time. Definitely a nice bump in power with the intercooler.

Just got a ‘19 Raptor on Friday. Still breaking it in. I like it besides the engine sound. It’s okay, but it’s not my old 6.2 ‘18 GMC Sierra with a K&N intake and Magnaflow muffler. That thing sounded good all the time. This one is meh.

On the whole rest of the truck, the Raptor is superior and I really like it.

I know that the trick suspension means that it’s really supple on the street, but how are the seats? Do you think they are comfortable especially for long distances?

I have the Recaros and they are awesome. I could definitely drive hundreds of miles in them in one sitting. Plus, the 36 gallon fuel tank makes that possible too even with upper teens highway mileage.

Super comfortable seats. We drove back-and-forth to Beaumont area after the hurricane two years ago. We will drive there drop off supplies and come right back. We did that trip six or seven times and we’re always very comfortable

Are the Recaros an option, or the regular seat? I’ve ‘built’ a Raptor on-line many times and don’t think I’ve ever seen a seat option, other than a different trim/colour option.

Addendum: just saw that the Recaros are a part of the colored seat option. A shame they can’t be ordered with the regular colored trim package.

I'm not sure, since Cobb used my truck for testing and they installed it for me. But I asked them, and they said it's not really complicated. At most a 5-6 hour job. It's a drop in replacement, you don't need to relocate the radar or anything.

I have an '18 with the standard seats, and they are super comfortable. No issues at all for long trips, I've taken several with the whole family. About to take a 20 hour road trip to Florida in a couple of weeks, and I'm not even worried about it.
