| Which OTer tested the frame bending on their Ford Raptor? Posted by AutoYes_Clown Rednecks...  on 2/4 at 6:24 pm Raptor jumps 90 feet Alternate view  Reply • Back to Top |
| Surprised it has that much pick-up. Reply • Back to Top |
| That thing landed HARD. Airbags blew the second they touched down. Bye bye steering column. Reply • Back to Top |

| Those trucks have a known issue with frame-bending on fairly minor ruts and when the body hits the frame stops. What you posted is waaaay different from that. He carried way too much speed over the hill. Totaled the truck and I wonder what he did to his back. Reply • Back to Top |
| Not likely, assuming he had belts on. Of course, that's a pretty major assumption as common sense looks to be in damn short supply. Reply • Back to Top |

I'd like to see the A-frames, just to see what that does to them. I went over a RR crossing way too fast once and hit the stops on the other side. Thankfully, there was no damage, but that isn't a good feeling/sound. Reply • Back to Top |
| Why the hell would you floor the pedal with a landing ramp that short? You are in a fricking truck, not a 4-wheeler. You have mass. Sir Newton just pwned the hell out of you. Enjoy that nagging back/neck for the rest of your life Reply • Back to Top |

| What half plausible story could you even offer for that damage under comprehensive? Reply • Back to Top |
| That thing is probably financed to the hilt too. Reply • Back to Top |
| I seriously wondered about a compression fracture. You think alcohol could possibly be involved? Reply • Back to Top |
| Suddenly the statistic that half of all Americans have zero retirement savings begins to make sense. Reply • Back to Top |

Didn't Evel Knievel have a similar injury? quote: It would be easier to identify the times/places where alcohol wasn't involved, I bet.Reply • Back to Top • Refresh |
