So I met the crew chief of the Raptor project at a FORD GT event in 2010. He told me one of the goals was to be driving along at 55mph and if the ground alongside the road is almost even with the road, you should be able to cut the wheel and go fight onto the "Off road" with no problem. he took his boss out to show him that trick and cut the wheel a little hard and rolled the prototype truck ten times! his response? "We have a couple bugs to work out..." and apparently they did!
My new to me 170,000 mile plus Duramax smelled like the inside of a Willie Nelson Honky Tonk! I replaced the bad blower motor and the cabin filters and it helped, but the smell is still there 50,000 miles later. You just learn to live with it or buy Royal Pine Little Tree Air Fresheners in 50 packs and stack them on the rear view mirror 10 deep. Congrats! It should be a great truck for you guys!
Clean all the soft surfaces, like headliner and carpets, first. I've used charcoal to help absorb smells. Also, they make desiccant filled bags you can hang in the passenger compartment to absorb moisture & smells. If you keep pecking away at it, you'll get most of the smell out, eventually.
Cigarette glaze infused interiors can be freshened by using an ozone generator. Set the timer for 20mins, close up truck, put battery charger on, run blower on high for 60mins, open all doors and air out overnight. For bad smoke bombed vehicles do this once a week for 3 weeks. If you like the smell of coffee then you can finish the battle off with a coffee filter filled with your choice of fresh coffee, stapled shut so the grinds are contained. Works as a great compliment smell with leather :)
Take some cheap coffee grounds put on paper plates and set one in each floor board roll up the windows and let it set. The coffee grounds absorb odors,let it sit overnight if the odor is still there let it sit longer,it removes the odor rather than covering it up.
Dan, Daniel my brother!! That is a sweet truck! Excellent purchase! The cowboy hat looks great! Gives you the "Smokey and the Bandit" look! Fox shocks are rebuildable! Signed - Your friend, Cancer guy 😊
Change the cabin air filter and all that stuff you spray will take effect better. I got a car from someone that used the door handle for an ashtray and after about a month I learned about the cabin air filter behind the glovebox and it started smelling so much better immediately
GM doesn't make anything to compete with the Raptor.I work in the service dept of a GM dealership but just bought a new Bronco 2dr with the sasquatch package because GM only wants to build soccer mom vehicles.I absolutely love the Bronco.
Well congrats on the raptor, I watched the whole damn video and wouldn't you know it. Dan and danny left us with a cliff hanger on Dans new bike. Can't wait to see the video on the motocycle!
@@peter-pg5yc you dont know anyone killed in a car or truck accident? struck by a falling tree while walking through the woods? struck by lightning? we're all gonna die somehow
@brianfairchild7819 thanks I wasn't going to reply to @peter-pg5yc on this but you took the words right out my mouth. Each and to their own. Thanks again!
@@peter-pg5yc Been a rider my whole life and accept the fact that it can be dangerous. I know healthy people that distance run can die of a heart attack at anytime as well. Men over 40 shouldn't shovel snow either. Stop being afraid to live there nervous Nellie.
ive found the best way to get smells out is a table top uv light and set it for max. lock it up inside the truck over night, just be cautious when you open it up will slap you with ozone. but it will pull the smell out of all the upholstery and it wont come back.
Cool truck Dani. Glad you got another car. Dan you look pretty comfortable in a cowboy hat. You might want to invest in some pony cars now. LOL. Glad you guys are doing well. Be happy!
Gotta say...the long haired denim jacket cowboy look is very effective (hot! lol!) Not a Ford fan, but nice...Dani will love it, and what a nice surprise for her!
What works for me is keep the windows an inch cracked down when sitting to help air that Rig out. (CA style) PS ~ your cool new Raptor is now named Ron Burgundy !
I’ve been looking at shocks for mine. They have an exchange service deal out there. Buy a set send yours back so they can rebuild them. Toying with that idea. Shocks are actually fine on ours but planning ahead if we keep it.
Damn, Dan.... have you gone Hollywood on us? Cowboy hat, unripped shirt and no grease on your pants. And a Harley in the garage. You gotta update us on that thing.
Edit 😅 never mind i got to the part you said you bought shocks..2500$ ouch.. Fox has a rebuild kit for those shocks, 300$ does all 4. If you havnt already bought shocks maybe see about having those rebuilt (or try yourself but it requires a couple specific tools). I don't know about up north there but down here there's suspension shops that rebuild them.
They make interior car freshener bombs specifically for cigarette smoke. Wipe down the whole interior with warm soapy water, windows too. Set it on your console run the A/C and pop the tab. Run the truck for about 20 minutes and it should be good.
plenty of places online that fox shock rebuild ervice. you can ship em out to them to rebuild em, or they will send you all 4, and swap em out and then take urs as core. best way to do it. half the price of brand new.
Dan I found a Turtle Wax air freshener bomb that did a pretty good job of removing the smoke smell in my truck. You have to set it off with the ac on recirculate .
I really like the raptor and it will make a great addition to the shop . The burgundy paint is like everything else its expensive but the color is limited to high end mustangs Lincoln and raptor models there is a standard color that is very similar but when applied it looks a lot different. I hope that Danni has many many years of enjoyment driving her new truck and it should make a great tow truck. With the back seat for the dogs hope the dogs are doing better
Congrats on the new jacket. Speaking as a F150 fan, the Raptor was a no off-road traction POS on its best day. Even the official Ford sales video shows these just slipping along the course. So I guess this one is metal eh? 2013?
Dan gets a whiff of cigarette smoke and turns into the Marlboro man. Sweet truck.
😅
Ha he needs a Richard petty cowboy hat
Ahaha Never knew the Marlboro man had long wavy gorgeous hair 😂
As a guy who smokes, I don't see what the big deal is. 😂
😂 He sure did. I didn't even get to that part yet when I read this comment. 😂 I love it.
Love the Broke Back Mountain Thumbnail!
Guy lives in Alberta for a month and he's wearing a cowboy hat and buying a raptor 😂 I love it

Get an ozone generator they're only $50. You can do a few 1 hour runs of that to deep clean organic stuff out of the interior.

That Raptor is pretty sweet. It’ll be fun to watch you get it fixed up. Cheers!! 😎
After being subjected to a ridiculous amount of tri-5 videos, I appreciate this video which I'll consider my Christmas present! THANK YOU!!!

No cabin filter in that generation
Crazy good deal on the Raptor..even in its slightly clapped-out condition..That truck would bring at least double that here..
Well worn in
Omg I almost fell the freakin couch! I never thought I’d see that in one of your thumbnails. I LOVE IT!!!❤
Charcoal will help draw the cigarette smell out
Hey come on!! Let’s talk about the bike sitting there in plain view!!
DAMN Dan looks like a HARLEY sittin there.....Are turnin in to a biker too since went Ferd......
@@floydjones7241 that's only way to keep the speed in the shop after getting a ferd

Nice find Wild Bill. The look on Dannie's face was priceless. Awesome Xmas present. Steve in Texas.
Might have high mileage but it’ll be all highway! That’s why she’s got all the original suspension parts. Great toy! Fantastic price!!!
❤❤ I love your videos, awesome content😊

you mean death machine. yes they do that to a few i have known, and none were their faults.

I can see it already, fender well headers, black steelies with grandma hubcaps and brown primer patina
Haha
Congratulations great looking truck, a smooth riding Raptor. ❤️👍🤍👍💙👍
Once Canada becomes America's 51st state Dan will fit right in.
Ima kinda hoping we at least get Alberta we can call it "North Texas"!!
Dani won't even notice curbs anymore!
Never noticed them in the first place!!😂😂
Not a bad price. My friend just bought a 2011 Ranger for $16,500! Crazy money ! WTF
That is so Incredibly nice to do that for Danni! You two are incredible! Thank You for all you do. You're the best!
So tell us about the bike you have parked in there.
I hope Dan got a Dyna!
@@daleg937 Dyna is just a bar hopper bike.
Those fox shocks can be fully rebuilt. Try to find a good shop to have them fixed up and should be cheaper than replacing them, by far
Exactly my thoughts
Exactly what I get on my raptor farm truck it worked well
Or sell them since they should hold value and can be rebuilt.
@ you can exchange them
Find a detail shop with one of those Ozone machines to help get rid of the interior smell. :>)
Or get one for the shop. Works on mildew and critter smell as well.
Yeah after I give it a once over
Take a look at Tucson Arizona junkyards and see if you can find those doors, they'll definitely be rust free, I can pull them if you find any.
Ooooooo i may take you up on that!
You need to fix those power running boards.
Ok put the raptor aside a minute. Anyone notice the motorcycle next to the 56 chevy p/u?
Eric , yeah, wondering if Dan bought Dani a Raptor and a Bike for himself for Summer ???😅😅😅
I noticed the motorcycle and the Alberta influence on Dan ..with that 10 gallon hat lol...ALL GOOD
Yeah I did
Yes Definitely noticed it !
Bad influence from UTG?
Wow and iI just asked for a Ford on the last Video !!!! You guys are SUPER ACCOMADATING !!!
And it's Ford Friday!!
I try haha

The Ford Raptor would be the only newer Ford truck I would buy.
That’s awesome. I’m proud of you Dan!
It probably needs a new cabin air filter to get the cigarette smoke out.
The side view of Dan driving the raptor, the hat and shades, my first thought was ....is that you Dale?
Haha thanks!
Also check fuse 27 to see if it's been changed
My daughter is on her second Raptor just loves them for Alberta winters
Simple fix Dan,Vacuum power steering fluid out,Replace run it for a few days,Replace fluid again it will keep you from replacing the pump so soon
Wow! Nice color on the Raptor. You do the cowboy hat justice. It looks natural on you. I see you have a horse to ride now also…..
Man that damn chevelle is calling yo name including me.
The Raptor is awesome! I like the color too! You need to tell ol’ tireroaster to get back to making TH-cam videos.
I believe the door latch is warranty thing. For sure call the dealership with vin to see if it is covered. Something about door latch freezing
Cool truck Dani. Glad you got another car.
Dan you look pretty comfortable in a cowboy hat. You might want to invest in some pony cars now. LOL. Glad you guys are doing well. Be happy!
I love how happy you are, Dani! Dan, you done did good! 👏
Awesome buy. Congrats to you both for buying a Ford Raptor.
Just a heads up on windshields in AB. And you’ll likely already know this…but…don’t bother! You’ll be replacing it in a year:)
Dan with the hat glasses and driving this truck you look right at home keep up the great videos
My wife said he looked good in the hat and canadian tuxedo. Lol. Welcome to berta, its a lifestyle Dan.
DD speed shop with special guest Richard Petty.
Gotta say...the long haired denim jacket cowboy look is very effective (hot! lol!)
Not a Ford fan, but nice...Dani will love it, and what a nice surprise for her!
“Willard are ya stunned” 🇨🇦🐕🐕
What works for me is keep the windows an inch cracked down when sitting to help air that Rig out. (CA style) PS ~ your cool new Raptor is now named Ron Burgundy !
Danni will never want to drive the 56 Chevy Truck after getting comfy in the Raptor!
Yeah Dan , fill us in on the bike beside the Raptor !
I’ve been looking at shocks for mine. They have an exchange service deal out there. Buy a set send yours back so they can rebuild them. Toying with that idea. Shocks are actually fine on ours but planning ahead if we keep it.
Dan with Cowboy hat = Ronnie Van Zant!! ....love DD Speed Shop!!!!!!!
Dan, with that 10 gallon hat that truck is screaming for a set of "truck nuts!".
Nice truck. Most Fox shocks are rebuild-able. You might look into that.
Dan, there's nothing special about the Raptor color, it's a Ford color ,so paint match should not be a problem. BTW it's a nice old truck
I didn't click on the thumbnail for awhile cuz I did not know it was you! Great choice on the vehicle and the hat! You fit right in with the locals.
Jealous! I've always loved the Raptor, the first gen is best gen for sure!
Damn, Dan.... have you gone Hollywood on us? Cowboy hat, unripped shirt and no grease on your pants. And a Harley in the garage. You gotta update us on that thing.
Dan your rockin that cowboy 🤠 hat. Ya got s ome wild Bill Hickock action going there. Congratulations Dani on the new to you ride
You'll love driving that truck I've owned a lot of SVT vehicles and a Raptor is top shelf.
Look into rebuilding the factory shocks. It may be a better alternative than replacement.
Daniel will need a step ladder to get in an out of the raptor lol
When you changed to Dan driving I swore it was BURT REYNOLDS!! NICE
don't go cheep on the shocks. Raptor Colors are different..
Love the Raptor. You can get the smoke smell out by getting an ozone generator. I literally used one last week for my daughter’s new used car.
rockin that cowboy hat dan
Now you can build the 56 the way you want!! Well played
Edit 😅 never mind i got to the part you said you bought shocks..2500$ ouch..

Glad You Got A Ford.Good Luck With Your Door That Doesn't Open
Sounds like you have some inside info about non opening doors .😉
@@garysells4259 should have just said good luck with the Ford
@DD Speed Shop. Change the cabin filter. And why you
have the filter out, spray some air freshen up through the vents via the filter box.
Merry Christmas 🎄 And Congratulations 🎉
Awesome truck!
Mail and a jet ski is about all a Raptor can haul.
It’s official Dan has crossed over to be an official Albertan cowboy hat and a ford raptor
Nice truck,love the raptors,you were rocking the sheep lined jean jacket&cowboy hat!
What would Peg do..
Love it!
plenty of places online that fox shock rebuild ervice. you can ship em out to them to rebuild em, or they will send you all 4, and swap em out and then take urs as core. best way to do it. half the price of brand new.
Take it off the truck before Dani loses it.😂
Which engine package does it have Dani? With a bit of work it will look great.
Says 6.2L on the side
Ozium is good for the smoke smell and charcoal like from a grill will absorb the smell 16:36
PB Blaster surface shield the underside
Regarding the windshield wipers, use Rain X. You won’t even need your windshield wipers!
This makes a Diehard Ford guy very happy to see!!
I haven't watched a single second YET, and already hit that like for the thumbnail alone!!
Looks like, you got your girl, her dream truck! 6.2, is a great engine!
My 1986 Cadillac was the same color. It's absolutely gorgeous
Dan I found a Turtle Wax air freshener bomb that did a pretty good job of removing the smoke smell in my truck. You have to set it off with the ac on recirculate .
Glad to see you’re wearing your Canadian tuxedo dan. Lol, that’s what we called Jean jackets back in New York.
