Sorry I haven't been updating or answering lately. Been driving the shit out of this truck.
It's been less than a week and it has 4k miles already.
Drove all the way to Canada then had to turn around and head to Colorado.

But it's been to a lot of cool places already.

Here is a sample of what's coming soon.

Probably end up in a new raptor sooner or later.

And yeah I hate the platinum on the sides.
I just need to decide exactly how long I'm gonna keep this truck and if I should mod it or not.
you should trade it in for this

Also, on the way to Colorado. I ended up hitting a huge barrel shape cone on the freeway. dont ask how. it scratched the bumper and put a nasty little dent on the fender.
Had some time yesterday so i took care of it.



few minutes later. it was a hard to push out spot since it was almost double panel.



scratch



i didnt have the right color to fill it in with, so its a temporary fix



Also installed HIDs in fog lights. I have a 20" LED bar on the way.
Lights dont do that great on the freeways at night.

Congrats. Although I really liked the Raptor.
