What a shame. Reminds me of that early video of the black Raptor getting jumped. Just a brand new truck totally getting destroyed. Be a fun drivetrain swap into a 2wd ext cab truck or something though.

Is this the same as what was posted a couple weeks ago?


If not this ranger raptor is going to have a worse reputation than the reliant robin for rolling over in sharp turns…..

My credo
The perfect is the enemy of the good.
Pretty sure it's the same one. But so far they aren't saying "prone to rollover".

My credo
Its probably better to be self deprecating than self defecating.
Lots of things will roll over in a field with enough exhuberance behind spinning the steering wheel.

Its why most rally-x (the in a field type, not the tanner Faust type) organizations require anything that's taller than it is wide to be caged and stuff.
