Got me a Raptor, Need Little Sahara info

[JD8]

remember your ford raptor is just a slightly fancier than stock version of an f150. so, no shenanigans like this:

I've always wondered how much Fluff was in these things......

Most of our crew camped out. I spent the night n motel at Woodward, bout 30 miles. It was very dry when we were there.

Do you guys reduce the air pressure in your tires? I found that helped a lot. BTW, I was driving an F250.

I ran 20 lbs air pressure a few ran 15. The raptor is normally 42psi. I had a tow strap but didn't need it.

There are some videos in here. One guy from Dallas got a little too much air but he could still drive it back home.

Once I figured it out I ran 15. It sure helps.

Bet that truck ended up totaled. Wonder if his insurance covered it.

I'm thinking he'll be lucky if they don't drop him after that exhibition of colossal stupidity. The Raptor is tougher than most factory trucks, but even it can't handle stupid on such a grand scale.

Of course, what's really going to get him is the medical bills. It sure looked like the EMT was going for a back board...
