Guys, lately I have been absolutely blown away with my 2018 F150 Raptor. Up here in Canada an optioned out Raptor at MSRP tops out at $88k CND, which is exactly what I paid for mine.

I told myself if I bought this truck I would not baby it, I would learn to accept the scratches and dings it would get throughout use...

4 months later I have been having an absolute blast... Snowy/Icey Trails, Mud Bogs, Sand Dunes this thing does it all!

Recently I have been doing some serious offroading to get to Staging spots for my Dirt Bike, and even catching air with my Bike tied down in the back "with my tailgate up!".


Is anyone else this reckless with their Raptors or am I just nuts??

These trucks look & perform amazing as daily driving concrete warriors so I understand if that's all you use your vehicle for. But wow I just can't stop gushing at how amazing these trucks are offroad, even when towing a trailor and transporting your dirtbike/atv....

Where the heck are you finding sand dunes in the Frozen tundra? :biggrin:

You spent the money, if you’re not using how you want to use it, that’s wasting money. Kudos.

I've thrown mine around a bit with bikes in the back.

I will haul my 700lbs Harley this summer to Sturgis from Florida this way. Please give me some input on how it was with yours in the bed. Thanks

This post made my day! Truly awesome pictures!!

Thanks to the rest for your replies, I hope to get some pictures this weekend with my raptor hitting the sand dunes with a dirt bike strapped in the back.
