My last truck got used and abused anywhere and everywhere. It was a 2007 F-150 FX4, leveled, 35x12.5's, yada yada yada. Old enough I didn't feel bad using it offroad, but new enough I was pretty careful. Haha

Took this a while back, but thought I'd share it now. So glad I got my truck and started offroading.

Default Not off road but...

hey guys, just installed raptor wheels and tires to my bone stock 2014 f150 xlt 4x4 3.55. Tires fit perfectly. Slight trim needed on drivers side plastic wheel liner. No rub at full lock on either side. I seriously didn't notice any loss in power but could be excitement of new tires lol. Love the way it looks now so i have an excuse to go off road now.

I am new to the off road game so I went with group called @offroadrookies on instagram. Great guys and we had 7 rigs. It was two land cruisers two jeep grand Cherokees and full size surburban. The f150 did great. Like mentioned before, I have a stock xlt with raptor wheels and tires. Never had to go into 4 lo or use the locker. Trail was very rutted out from all the rain and snow recently but was a great begginers trail. now I know what equipment I need upgrade to my truck and for potential recovery. Nobody got stick it was a clean run through. But let me know if your ever down here again I'd love to run that trail again.

I'll definitely keep that in mind. Not sure when I'll be back in CA with my truck though. I'm now in NC and about to retire after 20 years active duty.
