Ok, let me be crystal clear:
I tow heavy things a lot. I tow these heavy things for thousands of miles, at up to 80mph on a fairly regular basis.
The raptor, in it's stock form doesn't feel safe when towing 8000 lbs to ME. I don't think that the raptor is safe for someone without a lot of towing experience when hauling 8k lbs.
I wouldn't do it even semi-regularly. Your opinion may differ from mine, but it isn't going to change my opinion.
If you don't agree, I ain't mad at ya. Do your thing.
People ask for feedback and opinions. Y'all got both things from me .
We can all agree to disagree . There isn't going to be a "right" answer because everyone and every situation is different .
If I'm coming off as a ****, it isn't my intention. I'm expressing what I think and explaining why. Do you. Don't pay me any mind. Everyone gets to make their own choices.
Have a great rest of your holidays.
