Ford Raptor Tackles SoCal Off-Road Park in Style

By -

Had to twist his arm as first. He made a decent attempt at self control cause he didn’t want to get the truck dirty before working on it. This is what happens when you let @robbywoods valet park a raptor. Good news is he loves the drive train, axles, and engine, but was not impressed by the suspension. That’s exactly what you want you want to hear when dropping off a raptor to get suspension upgrades. As he likes to say “long rant short” it’s a good feeling to drop your vehicle off with someone that is motivated by perfection and harmony. He drove it like Ace Ventura and parked it excited about all the potential he could squeeze out of it. He has some amazing and unique ideas that raptor owners will love. It’s not a normal vehicle and he has no intention of doing a normal job on it. joyride #driveitlikeyoustoleit #valetparking #offroad #4×4 #perfection #goals #offroading #bfgoodrich #methodracewheels #kclights #rigidindustries #ford #fordraptor #f150raptor #gen2raptor #vinylwrap #f150 #trophytruck #truckporn #cammo #420 #monday #mondaymotivation

According to the truck’s owner, Kevin, last year’s torrential rain forced much of Azusa to close. But now that things are dried out, it’s a veritable wonderland of various obstacles. Including plenty of “spots to flex and pose for pictures.” Which is important when you’ve got a Raptor and an Instagram page.

All in all, good clean fun. Well, except for the part where Kevin purposely gets his cameraman muddy. So if you’ve got a Raptor of your own (or another four-wheeler) and live in SoCal, be sure and make the trek to Azusa!
