There's just so much more that you can do and enjoy with a Raptor.
Is that bottom picture the yankee jims swim spot? Cool ass place to jump off some rocks into crystal clear water. Last time I was there I stepped on a sharp rock and had blood literally squirting outta my foot, lmao good times. I had to drive my 5 spd fox all the way back to my house in forest hill.
That's exactly where that is. The bridge is sketchy. Does anyone see the problem with that picture?
I too have jumped off that same bridge. I went to Colfax and that was the road you could take from Colfax to forest hill. Whats wrong with the pic? The Raptor exceeds the weight limit. At least mine does..Last weigh in was 6325 pounds with half a tank of gas and no passenger!
Yep. That bridge was making all kinds of unsettling noises.
You think that bridge is scary, try hitting ponderora bridge our by Weimar. They literally have boards missing in random places, i never even tried it in my wheeler, just parked on that side and then turned around there...
I would've done the same.
I know there's a margin of safety engineered into the limits they place on a bridge like that but it makes you wonder how often that POS is inspected.

Do your research before you spout garbage. The only issue with those trucks were the guys behind the wheel that thought they were driving trophy trucks. And guess what? You can damage a trophy truck if you overdrive it for the terrain and conditions too.
Whoa, where did I say that all of the trucks were garbage? I would totally mob a Raptor. But you just pointed out what was wrong with them - some people buy them and drive them thinking you can smash around in the desert like a trophy truck.
