Ha Ha Ha ....... point taken RDFTS. Sorry, I'm blamin Wilson. Uhhhh I said good morning to him and swept the snow off.

That is a great looking Raptor. I kinda like the topper.

Happy Saturday All: Too busy auguring ahead today to get away for a photo shoot but thought I would send a few pics of my "home" up here. Snowin like a big dog today and -13 cel. Will get some road shots when time permits. That's my house behind the Raptor. My lab is middle door and a "guest"...

Morning Ditchplains1: Just finished morning geo/telemetry reports to office and gettin ready to "rip van Rockdoc" for a few hours. I will get a few shots of the bush road later today if I can get away from location. Suffice to say, if you guys get that "Ice Road Truckers" show down there, it is...

Drove back up north to work two nights ago. Winter still here and as I was pulling off the Alaska highway at mile 285 and entering my bush / ice road to rig ....... very early morning, 02:00hrs, -15 degrees cel, bright moon, clear night, icom radio on, no traffic on road ...... I locked up...

Good to see the girly truck went to the "domestic goddess", where it belongs. Not trying to denigrate Jeeps, they have their slot, but really, they are in no way comparable to the Raptor. Welcome and get ready to try to stop grinning with your new, competent, off road king.

Hey Bosssho: Those look amazing.... I have pulled the graphics from my 2014 SE as driver side was peeling so ....... Do you have, will you sell, can you ship me a set of yours?. I am in Canada but willing to pay shipping, costs, et al. I am, on / off, considering re-applying a set of factory...

Great test done today!. While home this time out I bought my first set of new K02s' for the Raptor. Left home yesterday morning 05:00 in ice fog and icy roads...... 2 wheel drive only....stable and tracked well ..... 450 kilometers later ...... rain, heavy rain, stable and true. 400 kilometers...

Hey Brian: Sorry I missed you on way home last trip. I am again "up the Alaska" but as I write am in the horizontal phase of my project. 2.5 kilometers to drill and south bound again. 2 liters of windshield washer fluid on way up this trip so Raptor, tonight, is one fugly, muddy, mutha. Going to...

Nice color. Welcome to the jungle........

As per usual, I'm with Wilson. If you wanted a "trailer queen, boulevard pavement princess" YA BOUGHT THE WRONG TRUCK! and perhaps a Lightning is better for your purpose. It's a RAPTOR .. get it filthy, get it dirty, use it for what it was designed for!. I have a thread here, somewhere, on my...

Just tagged up with and read your blog. EXCELLENT photos! Wonderful road trip. I see you were well looked after while here. So glad you enjoyed the visit. I am trying to talk my domestic goddess into a "like trip" but to your country instead. Same truck, a Devon Rex cat and mate who likes "the...

Hey Beachz: Wish I would have known you were coming to my "back yard"... I would have happily given you any assistance, ideas, local road trips et al to give you the best experience. It is beautiful up the Columbia Ice fields Parkway to Jasper, Lake Louise isn't it?. When I was living in your...

Hey Paratrooper: Yeah beautiful Mountain Range eh. I remember driving your section on I-70 when I lived in Casper Wyo and headin to Denver for road trips. Your portion of these young "monoliths" are awesome as well. These pics come from my section in Canada. Banff / Jasper / Lake Louise area in...

Raptor nesting at night then Rollin thru the Rockies.

You guys ever hear of Marvel Mystery Oil?. Been around for literally decades. Great for freeing up seized engines. Sea Foam is no where near as effective as this stuff. Google it. Have seen it used all my life in massive diesels, aircraft motors, farm power plants etc. We used it a lot in the...

You bet Rick. Seemed a little strange to me and was really not expecting any help based on previous so called "off road ready" trucks support from manufacturers but was pleasantly surprised about this one. My 2006 H2 SUT had a problem with plastic stick-ons coming off and I was told by them that...

Actually answered before. Yes, of course I run it through car washes. It's a WORK truck, occasionally up to its ass in mud on an off Alaska Highway goat trail to my drilling rig. I know what the manual says, no wand washes, no automatic washes...... seriously!?..... The toughest truck on the...

Greeting All: Well X-mas and new year celebrations done and I'm back at the swamp drillin up lower Triassic, Scythian Siltstone. Mathieu: Thank you and Crystal, and a HUGE thanks to my rep Jane from Ford Canada. So the club "alumni" were both, right and wrong about my peeling decal problem...

Ha Ha ya. No need to alter BHA as well....lol

Ha Ha Just looked back at my post... arrgggghhh Sorry about the orientation of the photo. New Note 5 phone seems to be posting photos sideways....... which, when I think about it, is appropriate as we are drilling 90 degrees horizontally now........ Ha Ha.. I'll figure this out......

Welcome Aboard Brett: They are great trucks as I'm sure you have discovered. Watch out for these "characters" here. Lol. Just kiddin, good group and penultimate site. I'm out of High River but seldom there. Out working...... far too much, me thinks. Nice Sporty. Cheers

Welcome to FRF Kim and hello from the Canadian contingent. Now go destroy an AMG G500 !!.

I must say, mega cab, Avalanche style side boxes, nice lift, wheels n tires. It is a sharp looking truck. Still .........

Good Morning All: Nice sunrise today. Re: Off road policy. We use Wawanesa who also covered the loss / damages to two of our houses in the massive flooding in High River 2.5 years ago {see "Broken Trust High River Flood" on you tube}. Can't say enough good things about this insurer during this...
