Another video of what our truck “can” do, but shouldn’t, because they’ll deny the warranty claims when owners show up to dealers with bent frames and suspension damage from doing the same things. :S
Are those problems Ford has been having with current an previous Raptors??
The new Raptor is almost 300 hp shy of the new Ram off road truck.
WHY Ford puts little V-6s in their performance trucks is beyond me.
Why not supercharge the 5.0L Coyote engine?
Google “raptor bent frame” and read to your hearts content. There is (was?) a weak point at the rear shock mount and bump stop where the frames would buckle. The soft suspension would bottom out and hit the bump stop. There is even one article where a club of 14 owners went off roading and 10 came back with bent frames. Ford denied claims stating “customer abuse” even though their own ads show it being jumped etc.
