very very interesting, that pop at the end of the video was definitely solid and I see why Ford is taking the stance that they are

Wow! Simple mod to fix that though. Even though, honestly, I am GM guy. The raptor is the coolest truck on the road today by miles and I'd love one, even with a bent frame!

Sad that Ford made a car for high speed offroading but didn't make the frame and other components in the car durable enough for the job. It's still an amazing car and needs respect for the power and overall design.
