Good thing he folded his mirrors in. Don't want to get those taken off parking on the street right there since they stick out so far....

I love the look of both the Raptor and the Super Duty, but I'd much rather have a Raptor to daily and an F350 on 40's to compensate with than one of these abortions. These remind me of the faggy looking SUV's made by Rezvani. Nothing screams I have waaaay more money than style than a Rezvani.

My buddy has one. It’s badass but I couldn’t imagine driving that thing everywhere. Lift is only 4.5” and the wheel wells need a bit more protection for the engine in my opinion. Also the cost shared up above does not include the truck from what I understand.

Saw one while camping at Campland a few years ago…not really impressed. Just screams “I need attention “! Much rather have my Carli Dominator kit Dodge and have saved/bought something else with the leftover funds.

Judging by the contents in the bed, I think that truck is working out very well for him.

Unless your Dodge has a bed full of hot chicks, I'd say this guy won. :)

True…but $170K+ buys a LOT more talent than that.

Those trucks are a monster. Had one pass me while I had my lifted F250 and it made my truck look like a tanka truck.

Well I am a Ford guy (Shocker😂) and I think it's hideous.
Then again, I can't afford to even launch my boat during Desert Storm so I'll just go be poor somewhere else 😁🤘

I see these things all the time in Havasu.. they are monsters.. that said I’m not really sure I’d own one?

I don’t think it would be any good at even minimal
Off-roading? Or pretty much useful at all as a truck?

They do certainly make a statement though

Saw one parked outside the valet garage at Bellagio. Wouldn’t fit inside the parking structure. Pretty badass ride.
My son told me I’m too small to buy a Raptor. I’d just look “stupid”. I’d look absolutely ridiculous trying to climb up into one of these.. but I’d like to.
