dearest willtel, since you live in georgia, you dont have a clue.
bottomline..................
for 55K plus, the damn raptor can go 10mph faster over the bumps than my 2011 chev. k-1500.
now call/go to geiserbros.com and see what they build. and see what a PRE-RUNNER IS. try also racedezert.com and go to the want ads.
so reality iz: you pay 55KPLUS for a raptor and then to EVEN make it offroad worthy instead of a glamorized glitter-mobile, you need to add a hell of alot of bucks to it.
we would leave that raptor so far in the dust/weeds it would make yer head spin!
next look at the weight of that pig, and i would ser-i-ass-ly consider a WARN WINCH with a receiver on the front and back when you STUCK THAT PIG! even for just going in the forest playing around in the mud and the snow.
like i said prior...............we have seen more of those damn raptors broke down/broken/stuck/smooshed/wasted/smashed/crunched since their debut,than i can even count. in the states and in baja.
why? because of MARKETING!
so yer gonna tell me some a-arms/some king shocks are gonna make it the baddest ass truck offered by dee-troit? give me a break.
dee-troit doesnt make anything bad ass nor does ANY MFG!
99.7% of those sold around here are to snot nosed richie rich kids and adults that havent a clue what a jeep trail is, let alone what the hell BAJA IS ALL ABOUT!
if it says jeep trail.............well hummers and raptors are gonna have a hell of a time period.
yep there big.................but they sure as hell aint bad ass.
