I love how they say that if you off-road it hard the area where the cab/bed gap would normally be will deform. I guess that answers the reinforcement question. There is none.

Perhaps they are referring to heat deformation?

I can do this alllll day.

I don't get why they didn't just base it on the expedition, makes much more sense to me

Anything with that name on it, I would be careful. I think the people that buy from him have no internet access or can't read.

Love this text from the article:

"With the air gap between the cargo bed and the cab eliminated, extreme articulation, or high-speed, high-impact suspension compression could potentially result in damage or deformation of the body. The company is advertising "light-to-moderate off-road" capability.'


What's amazing to me is that this (un-named) company's lawyers think it's a good idea to build a vehicle with that kind of disclaimer in industry articles. One can only imagine the legal language in the purchase contract the customer has to sign when buying that beastly Franken-Raptor.

Just what I want in an SUV for my family...I wonder if the costs cover legal fees to review the contract!

That Guy will build and sell anything if people are stupid enough to buy it. Notice the "Hennessey" guy does not hang around here much lol.

Not REAL smart to come out with a conversion with a new body style due out in 14 months or so..
