Hey everyone! I’m Abdulrahman, middle eastern hauling all the way from sunny Qatar!

I have been coming to this forum for many years for help but today I finally made an account to be part of it.

I own a 2012 Race Red Screw raptor which I got from the dealer back in December ‘12

It’s pretty much bone stock apart from the stainless works headers, volant air intake and a custom tune.

I did not do anything because when I first got it I thought (wrongly!) it was a complete package.

Then I broke a few axles and made a lot of visists to the dealership and therefore said I’ll give it a year, if it fails I’ll sell it and see no more of it. I’ll sell it. If it passes with no faults, I’ll make it a beast

It went through a major gear overhaul this year because the clutches were toasted midway through a sunday night drive. While it’s more than reason enough to sell it, needless to say I went back on my word real fast!

I won’t be selling it and in fact I am planning on giving it a whole makeover, which I hope to post the process of.

It says قطر, which is Qatar in arabic. It isn’t clear but on the left it says Qatar in english vertically. Our number plates consist of numbers but I photoshopped the number out , it was an instagram post

Welcome! How does your beast to in the real dunes?

It's great! I have owned toyota land cruisers before the raptor, but I have never looked back!

I had to get some speed in the toyota for the bigger dunes going in 4th or 3rd gear and barely getting to the top, downshifting to 1st along the way (weak, lol)

With the raptor, just give it a nice push of the throttle as you hit the dune and you're up there!

I need a long travel kit though, the bumps are becoming annoying haha

I'll try to get a video of the raptor hitting some dunes, should be fun!
