There is nothing weak about these frames or the Raptors in general. An Abrams tank can be destroyed if used improperly.

If a fella mounts a snow plow to a conventional F-150 and tears up his rig, is Ford liable? Hell no.

If a fella tows over 12K with a max tow F-150 and destroys the truck, is Ford liable?

I'm not sure if the owner's manual that comes with a Raptor describes what abusive use would be but these fellas damned sure figured it out.

I'm not convinced that Ford properly or completely described what proper off road use would consist of for the Raptor's, but as said many times already, these are not home made trophy trucks. These are 6000 lb trucks built for heavier than normal off road use, grocery getting and daily driving.

Common sense must prevail.

BTW, any other non-Ford truck enthusiast that's laughing at this one can kiss my back sides.
