    Eh. Probably. Probably just needs some brackets and pulleys and whatnot. Maybe a power steering pump and water pump or something.

    Or maybe it smacked hard enough it drove the crank back and did some serious damage.

    Who knows.

    I heard a rumor they are going to offer a truck with that engine soon. I might have to check it out.

    Hell, even you precious Duracrap should be able to run with a Raptor...on pavement. Off road is a whole other story.

    Dodge already built one back in '12. The Ram Runner is an actual purpose-built off road package for less than a factory Craptor.

    The Raptor's really nothing to be impressed with off road, either.

    It isn't a rock crawler, but use it for what it was made for? Better have a helicopter if you want to keep up.

    They're notorious for the bed folding into the cab when they encounter rough terrain at speed or take jumps. It's marketed as a light-duty baja truck, but can't actually run dunes. It doesn't have the front end for technical trails. It's not meant to tow or haul anything serious. To be honest, I'm not really sure what it was made for other than contributing to GDP.

    The only guy I know that has one did tell me it snorts pretty good pulling his 23' travel trailer and gear. I told him my big D doesn't even know there is anything behind it

    Yeah the raptor wouldn't stand a chance then.
