    Utazona

    I was recently blessed with a couple weeks off between jobs. With this time I knew I had to do something special, something I ordinarily couldn’t do. I thought about Baja but a solo trip wouldn’t be something the wife would sign off on. Next on my wish list was a Utah and Arizona trip. With...

    From Oklahoma to Canyonlands NP Maze District

    Great report and looks like you saw some amazing sites. I'm like you, I want to spend so much more time in Utah but just don't have the time.

    Wow, this trip is probably the best offroad trip I've been on. Neck and neck with Baja. We covered a little over 500 offroad miles. Went through multiple parks and monuments. I'll be putting together a full trip report but here's a couple pics until then. Big thanks to buddy Andrew for coming on...

    lol...my son loves to pretend he's driving. Works out perfectly when I'm working on the truck. I just plop him in the drivers seat and shut the door. He's safe inside while I work. THanks! I'll try and check on the dimensions in the morning.

    Ok, I got a Gobi Rack. They haven't quit released them yet but I'd seen a photo on facebook with a rack on a Raptor that looked like one of theirs. I messaged them and in fact they were developing one for the F150. 5 months later it showed up haha. I can't complain though. The workmanship is...

    Thank you so much for the tips. I've been actually looking for a good spot. I'll see if that works with the route. Cheers!

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    So looking forward to this trip. Got most of my prep done today. Kind of sucks removing the upper control arms because you have to remove the shocks in order to get to the bolts inside the shock tower. My buddy, Gordon, suggested just removing the top bolts of the shock and see if it would...

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    So, I'm currently in between jobs and don't start work until April 13th. I've got a strong itch to do something I ordinarily wouldn't be able to do due to time constraints. Utah and AZ have been on my list for sometime so I think I'm going to head out the week of the 6th. I've began mapping my...

    Black Rock Desert

    Don't forget to like us on facebook: www.facebook.com/expeditionxoffroad My head is still spinning from this last trip. So much happened that I'm not sure where to begin. I suppose I should start from the beginning... Most of our group met up in South Lake Tahoe around 6pm. The plan was to...

    Thoughts on 2015 F-150

    It would be my choice if I were in the market. Better gas mileage, power, towing, load carrying than a tacoma. Plus, you can easily install a mid travel kit like the one you mentioned from Camburg if you want more performance. Get the V8 btw, I wouldn't trust the turbos in the desert dust.

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    Yeah, no longer part of Raptor Expeditions. It was a lot of fun while it lasted. Doing my own thing now with my buddies... just focusing on having fun. Funny story - when I brought the truck home from taking it off from my buddies house, my 3 year old son thought I got a new truck haha. I guess...

    Haven't done much to the truck lately as everything has been working well. Icon's have continued to perform after 27,000 miles of use. I'm guessing they are over due for a service since 7000ish of those miles have been offroad. Here's a couple up to date picks from this weekend.
