How would the raptor do?

[Dr. Hunter]

Great article. Anyone ever drive over this particular rock?
How do you think the raptor would fare?

Sorry about that, eh!

running boards for sure toast.

Such a stupid question.

The Raptor would be damaged for sure. It's a huge rock...



Unless it's a lifted pickup no vehicle can straddle that rock or pass over it cleanly. It would hit the Raptor's undersides - all of it. The only way a Raptor could deal with that rock except for driving around it would be to climb over it with a tire but you'd have to turn otherwise when you come down it would impact the underside and/or running board.

all you need is rock sliders. Why don't mini cans and compacts come with them?

Pretty certain there was sarcasm with the OP.

Yes there was, got a laugh from the article and figured I'd share. Wasn't planning on driving there to give it a try...

Funniest part of it is that they put the rock there to stop people from driving over the curb. Unreal.

how fast do you have to be going to not only put your honda over the curb, but over a 2ft rock??
