Raptor Overland

Curious as to why you didn't go with an overland trailer set up? By your own admission you wanted to be able to off-road at high speeds and also bug out in the event of a Russian evasion Red Dawn style. You're trying to combine two completely different styles of off-roading.

You could have a really nice trailer with rooftop tent or there are some nice off-road teardrops. Have all your gear, food, water, batteries charged, and ready to roll at a moments notice. Back up to it and be gone. At the same time not weighing down and hampering your high speed fun.

You could have a tire/chase rack dedicated for off-road duty, complete with all the essentials. Upgrade suspension and whatever you deem necessary for your desert fun. Trailer would make a good base camp as well to take along set up camp and go explore.

Just seems like you're trying to make it into two different things and not doing either well enough. Jack of all trades master of none sort of thing.

Wondering if you gave that any thought at all?

Any vehicle build is a compromise. Trailers always sound good on paper, but a huge pain in the butt to live with. And well built offroad trailers can be $30-40k by themselves which is silly.

Yeah, Some might say spending $30-40k for upgrades to a $70K+ truck is silly, but these trailers sure look sweet.

When I was shopping for my R8, I saw dealers in Miami who advertised 144 month financing for exotics
