    Anyone here have a RAM 1500 EcoDiesel?

    If you really want the raptor, you can swap out the stock springs for a more heavier duty progressive springs. Atlas makes some for under a grand. Everything else on the raptor is beefier so should do just fine for you. Also, a Raptor will hold it's resale value better than pretty much any...

    Across 4 mountain ranges in Death Valley ...

    Beautiful pics. Well done on getting yourself out of the mud! I took my dad to Death Valley about 2 years ago. He loved it and had always wanted to go...great memories.

    Baja 5-day trip:whales, cowboys & horses

    Looks like an amazing time. I agree, people are missing out on such a wonderful land and people. But, I won't complain since Baja would likely be ruined if people really new how great it was. I just made my first trip about 2 weeks ago and I'm hooked. If it wasn't for our 3 year old son back...

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    Ah...that's a real bummer. I felt safe once we got out South of the border. Granted we were in a large group of 21 trucks. I missed the exit to Ensenada in TJ right after the border crossing. I was a bit stressed haha. You don't want to get lost in TJ and it's hard to tell which road is going...

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    Woweee!! Just got back from a 4 day trip across Northern Baja. Hit Ensenada, San Quentin, Mikes Sky Ranch, and San Felipe. Trip was amazing and I'm working on a full report. Truck held up flawlessly. Beat the crap out of it but it kept coming back for more. Only damage came from hitting a...

    Boom. The 2017 Ford Raptor has landed.

    I don't dislike the new Raptor. I think it has it's benefits and what I feel are downsides. For me, I'd rather keep my big v8, current styling, and 6 speed tranny. You can say that about any truck. Raptor does not fit into the same category because it isn't just shocks. It's a big motor...

    Boom. The 2017 Ford Raptor has landed.

    ^^^Obviously and no disagreement there.

    Boom. The 2017 Ford Raptor has landed.

    My thoughts: - Doesn't look like a desert truck anymore. Just a big aggressive truck. - 10 speed tranny...why?!?! I rarely go passed 3rd in the desert. I sure as hell don't want to shift more than i already do. - not a fan of the eco-boost. I've heard several stories of people who've done...

    2013 Ford Raptor SuperCrew build

    Had an amazing weekend out at Pismo Dunes. We had an big meet up which was a total blast. Truck had some damage unfortunately. Bent my rear bumper pulling a guy out of a giant whole. Stupid d ring pin was to big for my tow adaptor so i just wrapped it around my bumper. Thought the 2 inch tubing...

    Raptor Expeditions - Death Valley Run

    Oops, i guess i didn't see you guys haha. There's no way I'd mistake a Land Cruiser for a Subaru. I guess it's good we didn't run into him than. Sounds like you guys had fun as well.
