Hey, once you cross be sure to post some pictures if you find internet down there. Looking forward to seeing some of your pre running prior to pit setup.

Well, it's time to say goodbye to this Raptor and build. I totaled it down in Baja back in March. It was awesome building up such a great truck that took me to so many amazing places. From Punta Canejo Baja at sunset, to sunrise in the San Juan mountains. The truck did it all. Did it well. And did it without complaint or issues.

All of the parts off of this truck will be transfered over to my new Raptor that I hope to have finished by November for the 1000 prerun. I'm not planning anything crazy, just another well built Raptor that can get me anywhere. This one won't have all the extra holes in the bed from trial and error, it won't be black, it won't have a 5.4, and it won't have miles stacked on it since I have a daily driver truck now.

Looking forward to the 6.2, AC seats, and factory beadlocks. Stay tuned for the build. I'm working with one of the best fabricators in the desert industry on some stuff for this truck. Should be pretty awesome.

Can't wait to see what you come up with! Hopefully I'll see you down in Baja for the 1000.
