This is the Ranger Raptor content we’ve been waiting for. Worth a watch.

I love seeing what the RR is capable of. I have an unhealthy obsession over the Raptor series.

Fun fact, this is the first off-road trail
I ever attempted. I was in an unmodified 2013 Land Cruiser. I also didn’t realize that it was a 9/10 difficulty because I had no experience. I hadn’t told anyone that I was going off-roading, so it was pretty scary.

Obviously I turned around at the gatekeeper they mentioned 😂

Finally!! A real Ford Ranger Raptor video from TFL. I was waiting for the Cyber truck to show up 😢. Looks like an incredible factory stock vehicle. With the side steps removed, it would be in a very rare class of everyday vehicles. Great on and off road. Great video TFL.

That "outdated" 4runner sure don't look so outdated on the trail does it. 💪🏻 Nice job James.

RR is a damn beast for an out of the box truck that is an awesome truck for daily on the road.

As the owner of a 2019 Gen 2 Raptor and 2014 Gen 1 Raptor I’d say the side steps work nicely as intended (to stop rocks from flying up and hitting your fenders during high speed desert running). They were never intended as rock sliders and do reduce clearance when rock crawling.

This was by far one of the better videos you all have done lately. Great work. Put that ranger raptor to work!

Thanks Tommy! Your little adventure on that trail finally convinced me to drive 600 miles to a dealer in the middle of nowhere to get my hands on the Ranger Raptor. At the moment they're not easy to find and unfortunately the dealers also know that. The MSRP is around $60k, dealers at the moment charge around $65-70k for it.

While I do own that 5th generation 4Runner you guys had in the video, and yes its A-TRAC system has no competition out there, I got sick of its abysmal engine power on the highway (especially here in Colorado at high elevation) and the lack of creature comforts. Was considering the new lineup from Toyota as well, but their brand new engines and transmissions seem to be plagued with problems at the moment. Hope they get them sorted out eventually.

The one thing you omitted from your videos Tommy is how overpowered that Raptor is 🙂Driving it back home, I was easily passing cars on the highway, irrespective of the fairly aggressive BFG KO3s it comes with. Buttery smooth drive. It put a big smile on my face 🙂Fingers crossed it won't let me down.

I am nothing like what people might call a "Ford Guy" what so ever being I appreciate the GMC product for the type of driving I perform and have performed and this kind of driving you guys are doing hasn't been my "type of driving" for a lot of years.... since I had my 88 1/2 Samurai!

Now THIS TRUCK....
This truck makes me rethink the Ford product!
Makes me want to get back into the offroading adventures again!

How impressive what that thing can do!
Not horrible looking

Love your vids, guys! I am making my way through watching all of them since becoming a subscriber only a couple months ago!
Please... keep them coming!

Middle of the obstacle, horizon flat, no fisheye/wide lens. LIKE AT 8:22. I appreciate the better perspective on these trails.

I like the car reviews but I love it when you guys get back to comparing offroaders in the real world! Great job!

Great seeing the Ranger Raptor tackling this trail. Definitely a good excuse now to remove the running boards and install rock rails.

Back in the older years we rocked trail challenges without all of this tech stuff. I guess our tech in those days was simply different more analog I guess which did work & perform!
All in all, I am simply glad that the off-road world 🌎 still is evolving 🤘🏽👍🏽. Great job guys!!

Great video! That Raptor looked amazing going up and down the hill.

It’s time to swap the steps for sliders!!!
