1. Laurel Highlands, Pennsylvania

This location is about an hour outside of Pittsburgh and has some great trails that are marked, and some off the beaten path that you can discover with your Ford. This location has trails shaded by a dense tree canopy and views that will make you pop out your phone for lock screen worthy pictures. Keep a keen eye out, as this local is inhabited by timber rattlesnakes, black bears, and poison ivy if you ever have to leave the comfort of your truck's cabin. 

2. San Juan Mountain, Colorado

When in Colorado, take a trip to the old mining country and check out some of the best off-road trails in the entire country. There are some doozies here as far as steepness and angle, so proceed at your own risk. One particular trail is called Black Bear Road and is accompanied with a sign at the summit that reads, "You don't have to be crazy to drive this road- but it helps."

3. Superlift ORV Park, Arkansas

This location has something for each level of the off-road driver with trails ranging from simple to advanced on a five diamond rating system. However, beware if you tearing through this park as the trails run through an area that accommodates Jeep vehicles. 

4. Oceano Dunes, Pismo Beach California

Pismo State Beach is a great place to take things for a sandy day hopping dunes and getting your pilot wings for flying your F-series into the air over and over. After entering through the Oceano Beach Access, head south to the Dunes Vehicular Recreation Area and you'll be greeted by ATVs, dune buggies, and other off-road vehicles. 

5. Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, Georgia

There are plenty of places here to test out your Ford's off-roading skills at this park found in North Georgia. These trails are scenic and beautiful with the park spanning over 2,200 miles of rivers, roads, and rocky terrain. People love to take their SUVs and trucks off-road here, so when you see a fellow truck driver that's in a non-Ford truck stuck in a rut, please don't point and laugh at them.
