[@minnesotatomcat]

Your face when you went airborne was priceless 🤣 that guy isn’t afraid to drive that thing. Awesome truck 👍

[@vinniecorleone62]

I lived not far from Hesperia in Apple Valley, I know those roads well, perfect for high speed air in my old lifted Bronco. A killer build & the ultimate Stadium style rig, very impressive!

[@bzee5916]

Small world im from Apple Valley myself

[@briankinnear7461]

Big Ford fan. Love the old school power. It's one crazy truck. Looks like a blast to drive. Be safe and stay well.

[@WaspMedia3D]

Don't have to be a Ford fan to appreciate this build! So nice!

[@christophermarechal5017]

Rob never disappoints, love the rear end straps fully extended!!👍👍

[@donkeytime1704]

Now that's a real Ford Raptor...!!!

[@wyattanderson6767]

I love this truck wherever it shows up you just gotta watch!

[@C-M-E]

You had my attention at "F100 PreRunner", but damn did I enjoy the show! Add: How could I forget the ubiquitous, "Where we're going, we don't need roads!"

[@Don_Neto_Jr.]

What an f'n killer ride 🤘🏼! I'm a Ford and truck guy, I'd take this over any muscle car but, that's just me!

[@kennedypuckettmusic2067]

Im a Chevy truck guy but mostly I like cars over trucks(just happen to have a badass Tahoe) I might not take the truck in this vid over a very specific few muscle cars but most probably. You really can do a lot with a good truck platform ford or otherwise:)

[@marcusthomas6655]

I'm not a Ford guy by any means. But I would definitely like to own this bad-ass truck

[@fishpony1211]

Never thought id see a f100 flying through the air. When a car/truck makes u smile during a ride along, its built right. What a beast!

[@jaredkish8716]

You should watch the commercials from the 60s then lol

[@MrUltraworld]

What a beautiful truck! And with one plug wire damaged! Great stuff.

[@lorenzostefa1441]

BEAUTIFUL Munster...

[@FoxcastMedia]

Such a bad ass truck! great video!

[@rickstorm4198]

Nice to see you over here. My two fav auto channels....

[@thomaswoody6619]

True Beast...new definition for WarWagon

[@bahodirhassan2233]

Always something special are happining in this channel. I love it

[@andrewward1887]

Yeah I would drive that to work everyday,that thing is a beast great craftsmanship.

[@walid-GT]

Another HOT one..🔥🔥🔥

[@jrparker4804]

Man, that thing is incredible. Hard not to smile while watching this!

[@lukemitchell5241]

Made that kids day!!

[@hungtruong773]

Lol @ Shawn’s face when he said “Oh shit!” on the drive. Great build and awesome video as always!

[@smokepeddler]

Always out at Stoddard wells. That thing is SIIIIIIIIICK!

[@robertcopes1185]

Sean I really enjoy your Ford videos, l was ready to exit if this badass truck was a victim of an LS swap. Ford 💪💯

[@assaultlick2169]

Check out his big block ranger build on this channel. It won't disappoint

[@RobRJFab]

@@assaultlick2169 But it’s Chevy powered so he most likely won’t like it. To me engines are just big air pumps. I don’t care who the manufacturer is. Thanks for the shout it to my Ranger. 😎🙌🏼🤘🏼

[@ClockinLoot]

That thing is so sick

[@jameshutchins3396]

5800lbs of pure art. Love these

[@thejoshbtv]

That looks like a blast. And you didn't get pulled over this time. So progress was made.

[@RobRJFab]

😂😂 improvement has been made.

[@tedjones450]

Shawn is used to being in cars that hug the road but this F100 floats over it, the look on his face is priceless.

[@mitchellyardanoff4666]

Windsor engine keeps the weight down compared to a big FE! Smart!

[@wadesnider5218]

Awesome truck !!

[@RussellBrosGarage]

I’m currently building a 77F100 street rig, this truck is so freaking clean! Dude drives that shit too 💯🚀

[@richardwarfield7386]

Pre-runner alright ! Rob cool as a cucumber but look on your face is priceless. Cool as hell

[@anthonyestevez118]

A Pre Runner is a dream ride of mine. That one just upped my dream! Hell of a beautiful truck! Thanks for sharing!

[@HeavyFoot5.0]

I think this is now my favorite pick up truck of all time

[@DarkKnightOne]

What a beautiful piece of art Incredible

[@bubbacomputer]

I love old Ford trucks, that looks amazing and what a badass! Watching it just drive on that road made my stomach jump, I could tell by your reaction that it felt like a roller coaster! Haha

[@AutotopiaLA]

Total roller coaster ride!

[@SupraBdub]

Yep

[@rooster7658]

Whoooahhh yeahh man !!! One of the raddest rigs I have seen in a very long time..awesome

[@eliteharrington7377]

That ride is so "Bitching" she has the ability to get airborne. Thank you for sharing Shawn.

[@SMXJH]

So awesome.

[@marcusthomas6655]

Man I miss California. I definitely need to move back to Norco. That truck does it. I remember in the early 90s when they started to make the minis into pre-runners. Fun times

[@AutotopiaLA]

This thing is so cool

[@KRock393]

Been loving this truck ever since I saw it featured on Terra Crew's channel. It was badass in the previous build, but they went 100 times more badass, seeing all the details that you don't see until you get under it. And the cab is so quiet for what you would think it would sound like. Great feature!

[@RobRJFab]

Huge compliment thank you! 🙌🏼🙌🏼

[@MrEvilTag]

Prerunners and trucks in general arent my thing but this thing is sick. And the airtime of just those tiny bumps!

[@seanscott7120]

Shawn, dude your job is so Gnarly! Try not to get arrested😁 Super Rad Truck

[@alejorodriguez2923]

It is a beautiful truck.. Now the 70s are in fashion? in Mexico and USA I would have liked him to record the process as being the wide one looks like a raptor👍🏽

[@snakeplissken1754]

When i was a kid i loved when my dad drove over bumps so the car went airborne for a moment. Sadly he didn´t have THIS car, when we went home from my grand parent where there was a road with some solid bump he only always took when he wanted to put a smile on my face.

[@RobRJFab]

Sounds like an awesome father. 🤙🏼

[@RotorMedic7]

That License plate says it ALL! Damn impressive 👏 👌

[@allanstriber5272]

Sweet ! Love those old ford's .bad to the bone

[@cannednolan8194]

Nice that must of been fun.

[@nickp701]

Now this dude has some nice trucks. He builds them perfectly. If could have a another truck this style is amazing.

[@K-Effect]

It has racing stripes so it gets my vote!

[@Mr.EeToMyself]

Loving your F100.

[@MsSkip60]

How do you guys find such crazy motors and film it!!! Spectacular stuff as usual

[@NovemberFoxtrotRC]

If you like this kind of prerunner build check out terra crew.

[@mintruth]

I want ONE!!!

[@1972chevy]

Your face expectations is priceless i want one 🤣👌🏾💯🔥 He let them horses run💪🏾

[@AutotopiaLA]

He definitely had me paying attention lol!

[@thecarguy7238]

This has become my favorite car place on KZbin

[@justinm.791]

YEEEEEEEEEEEES one of my favorite trucks of all time!!! So cool to see it on your channel!!!

[@13illyxmaze]

Something like this has to be the ultimate car, fun on the road and off-road

[@brandonshelton4875]

Super badass! 🤘🏼🇺🇸

[@jbgulfport1]

Hands down the best truck build I’d ever seen!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Rob and his team do amazing work

[@RobRJFab]

Awesome compliment thank you!

[@nickcovelli5056]

I got to see this truck in person at the Airport Cafe a few years ago. My father and I were on a motorcycle ride to lunch. All I can say is that this build is a true work of art. The attention to detail and craftsmanship is like nothing I’ve ever seen.

[@mustang05ray]

Shawn your reactions to each and every episode of priceless but this one was more like terror at one point.

[@dank3823]

Maan what a dream truck. Looks sick with the f100 body, tires, color.

[@javiertorres-bb8lf]

Even this guy's garage is cool. Great floor. Tremendous truck. Not a ford fan but, this is one nice truck.

[@RobRJFab]

I love it when people just recognize hard work and cool stuff. Even if it not A brand that you particularly care for. For me it’s like hydraulic low rider cars. I wouldn’t own one but I sure can appreciate the amount of time and effort that go into those cars.

[@2024pray]

Bad ass truck…. Looks like fun!

[@danakraushaar3606]

Awesome. I know those streets have family there

[@RobRJFab]

All my neighbors are awesome. Whose you family?

[@6sixty1gixxer80]

I'm out in Lancaster and was like those roads look real familiar. I've been there before. Awesome build for sure

[@traviscassidy4717]

It’s awesome to see Rob who’s usually pretty stoic get giddy at 6:35

[@RobRJFab]

It speaks to my childish side. 😁🙌🏼

amazing machine and the landscapes were just incredibly beautiful, love these videos

[@johnbehneman1546]

I LOVE IT!!!! I LOVE PRE-RUNNERS!!!! SO MUCH FUN AND THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!

[@NovemberFoxtrotRC]

That thing needs like another 100 horsepower and it would be perfect. I love the rebuild. Glad to see it back up and running again.

[@RobRJFab]

I respectfully disagree. It needs another 300 hp. 🤘🏼🤘🏼😂😂

[@henrent]

I was 5 seconds into this video and I was already thinking YES!

[@MegasXLR]

Dudee, I'd love to fly in this thing too lol

[@bazilwreckerloughead]
