Fast Off-roading - Stock & Shelby Baja Raptor | Everyday Driver

We've discussed Ford's Raptor many times but haven't ever put one on camera. When we mentioned this to our friends at XPEL, they got us more than we imagined. Join us as we drive in the snow, mud, and high-desert to discuss what happens when off-roading meets supercar tuning.
To get XPEL paint protection film for your truck or car, go to XPEL.com and search for your nearest installer. We have it on our own cars and swear by it.

THIS IS WHAT ITS MADE FOR *goes 35 down a dirt road*

[@crazikyle]

I was thinking that the whole video, my moms minivan could do most of this stuff.

[@DylanTheVillan]

went back and put 2x speed and was much more satisfied

[@raydelarosa1927]

Needs a real driver... Too much truck for some

[@decordejohnson7910]

William Coles exactly !!!💯😂😂😂😂

[@928_tyler]

Tell me y

[@Yohanyothan]

That was the most intense puddle splashing I have ever seen. A toyota carolla could handle that road

[@mikeycassey8507]

my old Daihatsu Charade 1.0 liter 3 cylinder bush basher can go faster than that raptor.

[@phillipburns5617]

But....but....but..he got mud on it😄😂😂😂

[@lukecasler7811]

I testify a Toyota Camry can too

[@surpuscristal92]

You could and you would destroy the suspension on the 1st day of doing 55 on that dirt road

[@salehalsayaad]

Toyota Corolla can handle everything

[@deathdog1644]

Yeah, I’m gonna go back to watching Ken Block who knows how to drive ones of these beasts past 25MPH

[@AudioFreqx]

It would take Block 16 hrs of recording time and 400 tries.. but yes.

[@galiailar]

It takes a lot to make a raptor look boring...but you guys did it!

[@romanbogdan8872]

You are showing the same puddle 4x in 30 secs

[@daynesandelin5015]

It was a really nice puddle

[@tonem427]

OMG. It hit me when you said it. I just realized ive been watching you guys since 2007, I had only been home a couple of days back to Miami after 3 year of college in CALIFORNIA when i discovered your show... I dont miss an episode. from the 305👌👌👍👍👏💪

[@NissanR33Ztune]

Great to see you guys back .... been a long time coming....

[@alexwolf8019]

People that own Raptors are probably laughing at you. This was a ridiculous display of its capabilities.

[@Sakitsunebi]

Any respectable truck owner is laughing at this video lol

[@T4nkcommander]

You go faster than this at Raptor Assault, where you drive fords trucks. You could hit the speed limiter on the roads in this video

[@Albertacoshop]

🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@GLo1406]

Most people that own Raptors have probably never taken their trucks off road 😄😄. They're watching this video thinking, "Wow, my truck can go off road?"

[@mckayolson2569]

“You can just jump it, becuase it’s Tuesday”. 😂😂

[@tyk5719]

We all know the video of the raptor jump and how that went. Or didn't........

[@EZapar]

I counted 6 passes through the same puddle in the first 3 minutes. Cool truck, lame footage.

[@notsubz3r067]

Dude chill, it’s an old video let them be

[@EZapar]

@@notsubz3r067 My comment was a year ago said the one pot to the other.

[@simonnolte5372]

Imagine responding to a comment on ur comment from 2 years ago😂

[@jaredtansley3236]

Hahahaha you are right

[@jb1995]

Great video.Best line ever, you can jump it because it’s Tuesday!

[@Shane-Singleton]

I like the look of that Shelby. I know most people think of the mustang but I like to think of the Shelby edition dodge cars from the 80's and 90's. I had an 89 Daytona Shelby that I loved. I wish I still had it.

[@marcoulibarri5744]

I could watch you guys all day and not get tired...good job.

[@timephire]

Man that's beautiful!!

[@hellraiserx9490]

I had a 2019 raptor and was totally unimpressed with it kept it about four months and got rid of it bought a Dodge Challenger hellcat redeye now that is a vehicle that really knows what performance is about

[@navsigda4030]

I love the stock to tuned comparison, and would like to see it as a more recurring theme for your content. May I ask why you never took it off gravel road? With the features you boasted, I was hoping you'd fling it off the road any second

[@KevinBurkeRacing]

awesome! as usual

[@HowToGoSupernova]

I think that the way these videos are made are very different. In a good way. Both if them alternating their opinion is really helpful for getting the view across even when they oppose each other.

[@R3LF13]

Sometimes I hesitate to click on a video when I know its going to make me particularly jealous. This was such a video, but I'm glad I watched. :-) amazing truck!

[@EverydayDriver]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!

[@spade0655]

I think you're amazing 😉

[@westerntui]

You hit those puddles at breakneck speed and that dry gravel oh my gosh it just soaked up the little bumps like they were even smaller little bumps.

[@josephhampton4070]

Hoping EverydayDriver could help me understand the setup on the grey Raptor at the beginning of the vehicle. The wheels and tires definitely did not look stock and I was wondering if you could share the details? Thank you!

[@kuniwata5239]

Thats off load car is so very big. You guy nice video .i enjoy it right now. Men.

[@joshuaholmes7929]

I don’t know if you guys take requests on cars to do but if you do can you guys do the Tonga edition F-150? I’ve seen pictures of them and a video about how it looks but I’ve never seen videos of the performance.

[@marlonpupo3245]

3:20 well I have to admit that when I hear Shelby I think about loud, powerful V8 engines not an ecoboost raptor hahaha

[@plk7592]

Nice truck guys, but I gotta tell ya, over the years, driving down dirt roads has somehow equated to going off-road. In this video you had maybe a 15 seconds of this truck actually driving off road. I guess that's suppose to mean it can actually handle going off road, but for me, I gotta see a whole lot more of that kind of driving before I accept its an off road truck. In most of the states in the mid-west, and west, they have a hell of a lot of dirt roads that's considered normal everyday driving, not going off road.

[@rodrigoalmendro3118]

you should watch ken block's vid. You'd like it.

[@joseflores-sx4qw]

yea, but ken blocks truck was not stock he added more travel and bypass shocks, my friends raptor in barstow c.a could not keep up with my xp900 on whoops and hard core bad terrain.

[@T4nkcommander]

@@joseflores-sx4qw you mean a 3 ton truck with 360 cameras, AC seats, and adaptive cruise can't handle really bad stuff like an offroad rig only buggy can? I've hit whoops as least 14" high at 60 tho in my stock Rap, so it is no slouch even still.

[@famousmidnight]

I love that it sounds like a Mazda. So aggressive.

[@Beyond_The_Beard]

Do you have any videos on half ton trucks or heavy duty trucks. Diesel Trucks versus Gas Trucks?

[@floycewhite6991]

I'll run out and buy this for my everyday driver.

[@drew.851]

I used x-pel on my camaro. It’s great

[@kettlemoose]

Funniest comments section I've seen in a while 😂

[@Jeremy.Nevermore]

What area were the desert scenes filmed?

[@Blue_Flame_Raptor]

This video is award winning... It wins the award for the only boring video about a raptor ever.

[@wrongwayup8217]

I like the big screen in this one very much. I test drove a raptor the other day and that was my only disappointment.... And it's not as fast as it's reputation would suggest. Still a very nice truck

[@TheReggiegirl]

I love the design on the raptors. Wish I could get one but to expensive

[@BDoh]

Thanks for posting gents! This was fun

[@trinidadsanchez3342]

Sweet channel 🤘🍺

[@razen944]

I've driven on a more aggressive dirt road at 50kmh in my 2006 Hyundai Sonata

[@barrthom603]

Sorry guys Shelby didn't add 3 inches of suspension travel. They raised the front 3 inches but overall travel is 100% same as a stock raptor. The Shelby shocks are 3 inch the same as the stock raptor as well, Also a 2019 Stock raptor suspension live valving technology is far superior to the Shelby Raptor suspension on and off road.

[@taylorthruelsen324]

200 dollar spacer lift... You are right.... Buy a raptor and build it yourself...

[@erichmazon624]

Keep it up guys! Always feel like I'm having fun with you gents.

[@EverydayDriver]

That's our intention. Thank you!

[@williamm4366]

This should be the official truck for the Daybreakers (in the Daybreak netflix show) that would make this truck so much advertisement worldwide !

[@StreetCruizer]

always a pleasure seeing something from you Paul and Todd. Can we get the new boosted V8 from the GT500 in the next Raptor please?

[@mohamedhussein5190]

StreetCruizer I maybe wrong but I believe Ford has already said it won’t fit

[@stevenp3176]

Mohamed Hussein Unlikely a figment issue. There’s several Superchargers available for the coyote f150 which has much more room in every direction compared to a mustang.

[@mohamedhussein5190]

Steve Pounder true but the GT500 is a 5.2 liter rather than the coyote 5.0. Not a huge displacement increase but still could possible cause packaging or motor mounting issues.

[@stevenp3176]

Mohamed Hussein Block is identical in size externally. Differences are larger bore and slightly longer stroke.

[@stevenp3176]

Mohamed Hussein Heads and blocks ect are interchangeable for this reason. The pick up just simply has more room under the hood in every direction. This is why there’s no twin turbo in the mustang because it won’t fit in the factory configuration. Aftermarket goes up front high or back and low for this reason.

[@archetype1931]

Thank you

[@thisisntgood71]

WOW!! PUDDLES!!! CRAZY

[@CoreyAllen77]

Car guys reviewing off-road truck: "this is cool! (I'm totally out of my element)"

I can’t wait to see a Raptor R Shelby Baja

You’ve managed to make a Shelby F150 Raptor look boring!!! Well done 👏👏👏 That’s some achievement!

Why am I no longer satisfied with my 2019 Raptor??

[@carlopabale22]

Wow i want this shelby baja raptor

[@russellduguesclin2001]

like all the other comments, you guys (EverydayDriver) are amazed by the Raptor driving straight on a dirt road at 25 mph, and then continue to commentate in amazement on the mundane.

[@canadaplace2be176]

LISTEN to that thing rattling. And banging.

[@slaWterCH]

A few years ago I did 100-110km/h on similar terrain, maybe even a bit rougher, in a stock Toyota Hilux. In the South African desert. All day long. I‘d say this doesn’t even use half of the Raptors capabilities 😄

[@sandeepbhandarkar8249]

Great video on the super truck and great articulation as well. I really felt like buying after watching your review. Keep up the good work 💪👌😎❤

[@raymondreese5492]

Phoenix, Az a shelby Raptor starts at $115,000 goes up from their?.

No its okay we have the answer

[@SteveRunciman]

I had no idea you guys liked trucks...

[@Clarity199]

4:12 yeah maybe an old Gallardo

[@PerspektifAA]

I love ford

[@brianbirc]

The Raptor is the best off road truck you can buy new. Not cheap ! Shelby does a little improvement like addin 3 inches to the suspension travel . The suspension is the key to off road at higher speed off road. Travel, Shocks, springs and strength. The Raptor travel is 13" front and 13.9" rear on good FOX shocks I personally can not spend 70K or 120K on a vehicle easy. That on a off road truck I would not feel comfortable driving fast over rough in that much money. I have an old full size Bronco I spent some money and a lot of work on. It is not as fancy to take to fine restaurants but nice. New internal balanced and blueprinted 408 AFR heads custom exhaust etc... Built trans and T case, gears, lockers, driveshafts chromoly axles, new performance brakes, all fresh better bearings, seals, u joints hubs and some special upgrades. Glass fenders bedsides and hood. Long travel TTB cut and turned gusseted and plated + some 4x4 with King shocks gives 17-18" front and 18"rear travel. Hi amp alternator for upgraded lights and off road lights a winch and great sound system. Some money probably 30 -40 K for truck and upgrades including a little more planed. A lot of work doing it. To have it done would be way more and I would not have it. What they can do compared to my 5 previous lifted with Ranchos and some upgrades is off the chain amazing. Through 3" whoops at 70 MPH without spilling your drink in control is something I never thought a truck from the 90's and street legal and drives good there too restored like new doing what it can. I get amazed on trips a lot.

[@Jefe4x4]

Thinking about doing pink slips with my civic si against this raptor and driver

[@tommy-jt6kj]

best truck in the biz

[@mickelion6198]

So if u rolled u can get out through the sunroof

[@TheProminentWord]

4:14 you can hear the truck squeak as it drives by... if I pay that much for a truck it better not squeak

[@ivanmolina31]

Victor L. Might be that crazy rack in the bed didn't really sound like suspension noises

[@nanceeleana]

A no holds barred deep pockets build would be a Ford Raptor first to Hennessey to dump that ecocrap 6 banger in favor of their 5.0 V8 swap upgrade then to Shelby for the dress up package....best of both worlds.

[@magnacartasamadams8189]

The funny thing is other truck companies they say are playing catch up the ZR2 Bone stock Just beat the record at a Baja course outpacing all raptors lol Oh by the way I just picked up my new fully loaded midnight edition for 37K lol hahahahahahah All the way to the bank

[@JerkyTreat]

But it's a Colorado...

[@magnacartasamadams8189]

@@JerkyTreat That can go up the Rubicon trail bone stock I get 30 mpg So I can go to more places and further than raptor as well Good luck trying to jump one as far and hard as a ZR2 The raptor would fall apart So yeah U dam right it's a Colorado And a better truck altogether than the raptor

[@JerkyTreat]

@@magnacartasamadams8189 My point being, is that people buy a Raptor to buy a Raptor. More than half of them will never even ride them through dust, let alone that puddle they keep rolling through in this video. I think a lot of people don't like mid-sized trucks like the Colorado, Ranger, Tacoma because there is not enough room inside and they can only tow landscape trailers. I am sure your truck is nice, but 37K for a mid-size? I think the bank is the only one laughing here. Laughing at your monthly payments.

[@magnacartasamadams8189]

@@JerkyTreat It's a lot better than 70 to 80k And the only reason my truck can't tow 10000 pounds is that bumper and getting more airflow to the radiator A couple mods and I can get 5 to 600' pounds of torque Out of that diesel Nope I'm the one who's laughing because I got my new and MSRP they're usually 50 Also 30 miles to the gallon yeah I'm laughing to the bank

[@JerkyTreat]

@@magnacartasamadams8189 I hate to break it to you man, there is no way that your truck will tow 10,000 lbs. It's just plain physics. If the salesman told you that, he was lying to you (a new bumper is will fix that?!?!?-LOL!) I really do hope you are enjoying your truck though, but for your safety and especially the safety of others on the road you really do need to know it's limitations.

I love the accolades, but that squeak ain't goin nowhere

[@brianbirc]

I built an 87 Bronco and it has more travel on King shocks than the shelby raptor. New engine drivetrain and fenders front rear and hood tires wheels etc.. A lot less than a raptor with same horsepower and torque. New great stereo but not all the electronics just windows and door locks and a Lowrance GPS. Plus lights etc... etc.. Not sure I would do much of the off roading I do in a $117,000.00 truck if I could afford one. I will stick with my Burrow Brah off road surprises happen and fast at speed.
