Truck looks great. Wish Ford offered this color on the Raptors!
Looking forward to seeing your build progress. I almost went this exact route when my 2011 Raptor was totaled. If it weren't for all the aftermarket parts that I already purchased for the 11, I would have gotten an FX4.
Special order one with the 6.2L haha!
14 MPG with 35's and a 6200lb truck is not bad at all. That's what I average before stepping up to 37's. I'm sure on a F150 and 32's it would do even better.
Gobs of power throughout the power band. Not one problem over 14,000 miles of which 3,500 are...
I can't speak for Bagels but I usually slow it down for turns and honk my horn several times. Only time I've ever really surprised people is when it's an ATV or bike hauling butt the opposite way.

Sorry couldn't find a link for the standalone mounts. I do love the Vision x Cannons. They throw light really far and provide great...
Haven't got it yet but the wife got me this Co2 tank for the truck. I bought a separate cage mount for it and I'll post pics once I get it all mounted up to the bed rack.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you but here you go:

I've been exceptionally busy over the last couple months because I was lucky enough to hook up with the guys at Raptor Expeditions. We've launched a club for runs here in...
Already solved that problem. Stepped up to some Icon 3.0's. Hit a similar jump on a recent run and truck landed so much softer and controlled. Very little if any rebound. Wish I had that one on video!
Just shot a pm. We like to have fun with them haha. Not the softest landings. Just before that, there are some awesome rollers where you can catch air 3 or so times in a row. Nice 4runner btw!
Awesome trip. Love that area...did a trip last year through there all the way to Reno.
Looks like you had some fun catching some air haha.
My buddy and I did the same when we preran as well. Looks like you caught better air though!
Thank you and this is the best I can do. Not any footage from this run as the video is still being pieced together. However, I do have the promo video for the upcoming Baja Trip dubbed the "El Bandito 500". It's got some epic drone footage!

I've been fortunate to become friends with a group of guys who founded Raptor Expeditions and now a play a small part in their future success. For those of you who aren't familiar with Raptor Expeditions, the company was founded in 2011 to draw Ford Raptor owners out of the urban jungle and into...
Thank you. If your patient and do your homework, they can be had for $500 above invoice which is nearly $5,000 below (edit) MSRP. You have to order it but it takes anywhere from 3-6 months for delivery. This is coming to an end though as the model run comes to an end. I got lucky after my 2011...
^^^Good point haha. Which is fine if they are actually pushing their trucks to the limit and ready for the next level. However, most see dirt once maybe twice a year and somehow a dual shock IFS and bed cage with a huge 3.5" shocks is warranted. However, how is this any different than what you...
The only thing that gets discarded are the stock shocks when you upgrade. Well, depending on how far you go lol.
I can't say I disagree with you about building a regular F150. I thought long and hard before I picked up my 2013 after my 2011 was totaled. However, I didn't want to deal with a...
