Over here at White Star Industries, we have to keep the flagship OD Green Raptor looking good to show off to other Raptor owners. I mean, if our truck was dirty, how could somebody see the parts? I mean what would they think?!

We also trailer our truck to every event, so as to make sure nothing happens to it while driving on the pavement. It would be Absolutely Devastating if it got scratched! OMG

are you being sarcastic Jimmy?

Damn be glad they're street queens out there. When & if you F' up your Raptor off-roading there will be plenty of street queens that will be getting into fender benders/totaled to choose parts from so that you can get your Raptor repaired cheaper and be back rising more hell on an off-road endeavor.

Then again, there is a few of you hardcore off-roaders look to be making TTs out of your Raptors. I'm thinking wouldn't it be cheaper to have a TT built in the first place? (I know, it cheaper to start with a Raptor)....:hands:

I have wondered this myself. Don't get me wrong, I love the builds some of the guys have been doing, but when they are done, there isn't much Raptor left.

I had the pleasure of "trying" to stay behind Jimmy at Snoball as he was our group leader.....

Yes, he is being sarcastic...He drives like the devil is on his ass and he cut through undriven trails like he had a snow plow on the front of his truck!!!

The man can drive!

While some cosmetic items may change....The heart and soul of the beast is always there!!

Mine might qualify as a street queen since it's mostly on pavement and towing a trailer. I didn't buy it to "off road". I bought it to go where no man has gone before....

On the other hand, I've been on roads that had a pucker factor of 9.873. Try an icy road with a 1000 ft drop off beside you and steep grades. Came out of that one in my old Bronco with chains on all 4 and it had positrac on both ends. I'll be back down there one of these days.
