I should note. We did 800 miles of the course, along with 200 miles offroad getting to our pit, and jumping around the peninsula a bit.

The truck did great, except black paint does not like cactus and scrub. Some of the plastic on the bumpers fell off. The mirrors are crap, the actual mirror kept falling out on the Drivers side, and the LED blinker broke. Also have a leaking front Drivers Side shock.

Ford is going to warranty it all!

Those mirrors are 270 a piece and don't come with the cap. Anything for doesn't cover contact FORDSVTPARTS on SVT performance. I got one of those mirrors for 202 with shipping and I think tax from him.

Tremendous! Great adventure - thanks for sharing it with us.

The B&W pics are really nice. I like the "Pray" sticker.

Finally someone else who isn't afraid to get his truck "dirty". It figures two black Raptor owners have to lead the way :thumbsup:

The UCAs did great, we undergreased them before we left, so they squeaked a little bit. Greasegun when I got home fixed that. I noticed that the truck felt a little more solid cornering, I'm guessing that its urethane bushings vs rubber. I can't say that I noticed much, but I have never offroaded like that before, so its a tough comparison. I do know that it was one less part to worry about.

If you liked the Pray sticker, you will love this one. I had quite a few people ask me if it was really a Hybrid.
