Found My Raptor

Got a chance to test out the off-road capabilities. Pulled this off after switching to Baja mode.

Hope you didn’t spill the latte !

Well done !

Your arms aren't long enough to do the reach around via the back window?

Hadn't seen a single Raptor until I pulled off in Memphis to stop at a mall -- where the Raptor really shines. Saw one Gen 2 and two Gen 1's in ten minutes.

Then a quick stop in Nashville. That 360 degree camera really helps for 10/10 park jobs. Only needed 3 spots -- new record!

Are you stopping at wash / wax places at every city? there’s not even any road grime or brake dust showing.

at least divert to some dirt roads or something.

Sport mode + rainstorm = clean car

Well my trip is all done. Raced bombogenesis home which added some excitement to the last leg of the trip. Some highlights from the top of my head included detouring through West Virginia for 20 minutes while singing "Take Me Home Country Roads" the entire time, trying to find the moon through the moon roof, going to a casino where greyhounds were racing in the snow, and winning $439 from a slot machine at the aforementioned casino.

As for my review the truck is great. Nothing really to add from what other people have said. Sport mode is extremely responsive compared to normal, the auto start stop is the worst, and the radar assisted cruise control is the greatest thing ever -- it single handedly made the entire trip 10 times more enjoyable.

Still don't have any pics of the truck cause Google -- its a white SCREW with beadlocks and 802A.

Had a great trip and hope you all make many good memories with your Raptors. Rex says hi!
