off roading aftermath...

[whtrapta]

yeah i have some good video of it but my friends have yet to give me a copy of my insanity lol ill have to try up at corn creek and mormon wells and sheep mountian is right beyond jeans dry lake right ? if so ive taken a few trails through there before ...

either way the dealer is putting it all back together for free so i really dont care ... apex is fun but its really not the kind of stuff to do what i did jump wise there its fun for the sand dunes but not much else

NO jeans DLB is south of vegas toward cali, this is all north like your going to the Mt. Charelston turn off

well looks like im a little more insane than i thought ...

the collision center called today to tell me i bent the front of the frame ... **** my life

lol so no more apex lol

i feel like a ******* moron i seriously didnt tink i put the truck through that much compared to what ford has shown it to do ...lucky usaa is working with me and covering it but i still wonder even after the frame fix i dont think the frame will be 100% but you never know ...

so now its in the shop waiting for the adjuster and all to start on the work to fix it ... lucky i have accident forgivness on my policy and dont have any other claims so my rates dont change ...

i used to have a dodge dakota that i beat and beat on and never bent the frame i just dont see how what i did could have done this...

guess i could have hit a whoop or 2 a little too hard or climed over a ridge too fast and hit something that caused the skid plate to bend and push the a-arm mound up and back causing the spension to bottom and bend the frame but you would think that i would have been abme to feel that kind of impact..idk

owell hopefully they can just fix it and get it back to me as soon as possible and not take more than a month to fix it which they probly will

sorry if my spelliing sucks im kinda deppressed about this whole situation now

See, talk to people and you will usually only hear horror stories from there. If you ride your quads there, people go through your shit while your gone and steal your gas cans. happened to me, they jacked one of my friends cans while we were on a ride.

Wow! Did they say where/what angles were out on the frame? Thats crazy, I would take it to another place for a second opinion.

Don't worry about your spelling or your language around here!

Sorry to hear you had so much damage - and I can see by the dent on the skidplate - it took a good hit, which likely changed the shape of things down there.

We all learn the limits of our vehicles in different ways. Get back out there as soon as you can, and have some fun! Meanwhile, grab a beer and read up on some info and funny shit on here

yeah after tonight at work thats what im doing jp7 lol beering it up lol ...and pirate the collision center has it now and i requested the frame deminitions and out of spec limits that it has and some other stuff too but the start of the clame was today so i dont have the details yet ...

 

[gotSVT]

They all bend if you off road them. Don't feel bad it is just a fact of life off road.

All this tells me is that IF we are gonna really take these trucks out and bang them around that we have to prep them for where and how they will be used. Sounds like you need to spend some cash and do some of the suspension up grades along with bigger and better gaurds. I am sure our vendors can hook you up. Its only money! HAhahaaaaaa. Vids please.......

this is the same guy that now has BOTH front CV boots torn?

FYI, if a white Raptor comes up for sale in the Vegas area..... pass on it.. lol

 

[whtrapta]

hah! if any raptor is for sale in vegas as DEMO, keep on walking. They used tons of dealer trucks for the first raptor roundup out there.
