What an idiot. I wouldnt take a $5,000.00 truck and do that much less a $45,000.00 truck or maybe more than that. Some people have more money than brains. Serves him right. Time to scrap it for parts. Wont be the same now.

Rednecks with paychecks. Love it.

I'd do that with a beater for sure.

Man, this guy is certainly getting his fame. For those wondering, the guy left in an ambulance but is completely fine. He was running Icon 3.0s, aftermarket skids, and bumpers. He will be using it as a parts truck to build up a new 2013. This isn't his only Raptor, and the company he is a customer of says he is not afraid to push his vehicles.

Yea, stupid. Hell, I didn't see anyone chasing him.

However, from the looks of it, -the truck seemed to fair pretty well. From what you can see anyway.
