I hear you Landscaper....
I live in AZ during the winter months and head out into the desert and mountains with my SxS or Rubicon - this year it will be different as we will leave the Rubicon behind and take the Raptor. I seedon't beat my equipment though. It will make it into the mountains and trails a few times and hopefully I can avoid getting a Sonoran Pinstriping job on it..
I have a feeling that the Raptor is a very worthy truck out there, but with its width, it may be just too big to get into some of the places we like to go. The Rubicon was even too big in a couple of canyons so I won't even attempt those anymore unless with just the SxS...
Just make sure you have a good pair of loppers and stay on the two trackers. At some point I can see you flat towing your jeep out into the desert.
After about 1 million times of saying, "I don't want an F150 because they are too big...." I almost bought a Nissan Pro-x4. My wife questioned my sanity once we drove this baby. Sure, it's almost a stripper as an XL. But it has some goodies via the 101A package, FX4 and STX, & XL appearance. I added the step bars and drop in bed liner courtesy of my "I can make you a deal" (more) local Ford dealer. Selling dealer wanted list for accessories. I have mud flaps (ok "splash guards") and a couple other items to fiddle with.
Seen here with owner-installed Yakima front kayak rack, (for my Toyota--it fits the Ford nicely with 8 C-clamps) and owner designed, built and installed red-neck rear mount.
