Percentage of raptor owners that actually really use their trucks

[quikag]

Wow! There's some sensitive folks on here. I'm just pointing out how amazingly capable this truck is and that most owners, myself included, barely scratch the surface of that capability. And yes, my truck stays very detailed most of the time and it is a real pain in the ass to get all of that mud off particularly from underneath, but hey it's hunting season in South Carolina and it's freaking muddy.

But back to my original post, the vast majority of raptors will barely ever go off road and if you are one of the folks that replied so defensively and with such viciousness I suspect my post hit a little close to home and you're butt hurt.

Guess what? 99% of new Honda Accord owners can't or won't use more than 50% of the cars acceleration, top speed, or handling ability. Cars are so capable nowadays, most drivers won't come close to exploiting their potential. Same with the Ford Raptor. It's a cool truck and many people buy it just because it's cool, not because they are going to use all of it's ability.

Welcome to the place, nice raptor.

Thank you x2. Looks like a fun place to spend some of my spare time.
I actually meant to buy an Escape, but couldn't find one with butt coolers.

Is a parking lot considered "Off Road"?

I tore across a field doubling as a parking lot at the local dirt oval. Went fast enough for my wife to complain. So win?

Don't judge a book by it's cover. I use my truck for all kinds of stuff (mountain trips, camping, off roading, grocery runs) but if it gets dirty, it gets a bath immediately after.
