Well, I took the Raptor out for some off-roading at Cajon Plateau right off the I-15. My buddy was co-driving for me, and we decided to take some video of our action.
I'm using a ContourHD 1080p set to a 60 fps 720p setting. It'll only do 30 fps at 1080p.
First off, let me say I'm very embarassed posting some of these videos, but I'm going to do it anyway for y'all.
I attached the camera to my helmet for most of the videos:
Here's our main run up the plateau. Check out the last 60 seconds as we put the nose of the raptor off the trail and into a situation where I'm confident a normal F-150 would have flipped:

We found a nice section of trail with lots of whoops. The downhill set were 8 to 12 1-foot whoops, and the uphill set were closer to 3-feet. We found that the Raptor just soaks up anything under a foot and a half, but you have to slow down a tad on the bigger ones.
Here's some off-board of this section:

And the same section running uphill:

Here's our descent out of the plateau (watch us abuse the Raptor at 7:30):

So, sorry the videos are long and unedited. The sound quality is an issue for me, and I'd generally recommend just muting my stupid butt. :chatty:
Hope you guys enjoy!!
