JACKSON, Mich. – If you’ve ever hit the trails in a pickup,
you know how dirty and dangerous things can get. But it's time to forget those
days because the trails have met their
match in the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor.
The new trail-conquering pickup from Ford Motor Co. is
literally a mix of components taken from the 2015 F-150 and Raptor. Together
these two trucks – both extremely popular and touted as the best – form the
most dynamic pickup we’ve seen on the trails.
Of course, we know that trails
have met their match in the 2017 Ford F-150 Raptor because, well,
we’ve seen this monster in action. Ford took the F-150 Raptor up to some of the
harshest trails in Northern Michigan to put the truck to the test, and it
didn’t seem to struggle at all climbing over hills, ripping through ruts, and
essentially shaming the trails.
Credit for the 2017 F-150 Raptor’s capabilities goes to its
increased ground clearance, heightened from the first generation Raptor, as
well as new 3.0-inch FOX Racing Shox that come with internal bypass technology.
The heightened ground clearance provides more space between the ground and the
chassis, while the shock absorption technology reduces and bolsters suspension
travel over rough terrain.
Additionally, and as expected, the 2017 F-150 Raptor is
built with an all-new four-wheel drive, torque-on-demand transfer case that
sends power to the front and rear wheels and combines focal points of
clutch-driven, on-demand all-wheel drive with mechanical-locking four-wheel
drive.
We’re ready to take the 2017 F-150 Raptors out on the
trails, and soon enough you can too. The truck will be ready for test-driving
in fall 2016. Stop by our Clarklake area used car dealership where we have an
