Dakar Winning Raptor First Test

[King Shocks]

The 2011 Dakar winning Raptor, first time out. There were still stickers on the tires. The shocks are the same as our bolt-on kit.

I kind of like the lights embedded in the grill like that.

I agree.... Hmmmm might look into something like that...

Considering all the "behind the grill" mounting options people are throwing out there... I'm surprised nobody has offered a combination of a grill with cutouts that line up with the brackets. I'm sure you could get really creative, just like the pics here show.

Awesome looking Raptor!

Thats my next bumper... Plain and simple...

That is an amazingly clean looking truck. I love setup up front with the bumper and the lights in the grille, and I'm really liking that bed cage setup as well...at least what I can see.

Cool truck, but "Dakar Winning?" I watched every televised episode of the rally this year and watched every video on-line. There was no mention of a Raptor running the rally, not once. Win? PROVE IT.
