I wouldn't even try that in a Raptor. Though, if I could afford to treat a vehicle like that, I probably would have when I was young, dumb, and of c... Crown Royal.

I just don't understand treating a vehicle that way. Just stupid to me.

That has to be Silver Lake Michigan, I go every year in August (except for this past year due to a divorce) and see people jumping their stuff all the time out there. Here's a video I posted up a couple of years ago of a lincoln jumping the same dunes...

Not nearly as good as the Chevy jump, but you'd never catch me doing it with the F150... I love my truck to much.
