I love it. Been on the beach, through the mud and some urban offroading to avoid traffic. Passes every test I give it and works VERY well as my daily driver. Only issue I had was recently and I picked a parking garage that was too short to go into...Resulted in me backing out onto a busy road (no damage to the truck, i stopped in time!)

I don't know if new Raptors still have the bent chassis problem, but I'm gonna go ahead and warn you just in case, the chassis of the first models used to bent on the separation between the cab and the bed, so watch out for that if you're gonna give the Raptor a hard time, you might want to look for a strengthening kit.
