Jumping your truck and the DVD provided by Ford

Deleted member 12951 · Nov 5, 2014

So bogus. Ford has a DVD video that comes with your truck showing you how to jump it. I was right behind you when this happened, I will testify on something notarized for the courts that you were not jumping or abusing your truck when this happened.

I haven't watched the video that came with mine, yet I will now,, but,, a buddy of mine that owned a parts shop swears he read in another raptors book on how to jump it, my book doesn't have this, only directions on water crossings. Maybe they removed the jumping thing? I thought my buddy was just over exaggerating.

My supplement (2010) does not mention jumping. However, Ford left themselves a "way out":

However, damage or failures due to neglect or a lack of proper maintenance are not covered under warranty.

It's not ment to be jumped but airing out by driving over a small cress at speed is what they are talking about. It's in a commercial there is a thread on it somewhere.

There's a little laser altimeter with a sat enabled router that measures distance from the bottom of the truck to the ground and if it exceeds a certain parameter, sends a signal back to Corporate to automatically void the warranty.

That video I posted on YT is the OFFICIAL Ford video that I ripped directly from the DVD that was including with raptors.

It only activates when the GPS is active so it knows you are going over 50mph regardless if the tires are spinning. ha!

There certainly is a DVD that comes with the truck showing you how to jump your Raptor! Shows you what to look for in a jump and everything. No not 90' but it certainly says you can jump your Raptor!!!
