This is Why I Bought a Ford Ranger Raptor - The Bighorn Adventure - Episode 1

In some of the best miles I've spent behind a wheel, ​⁠‪@TedwardDrives‬ and I challenge ourselves and the Ranger Raptor on a week-long overlanding trip through Wyoming's Bighorn National Forest. We join our friends ​⁠‪@firestone‬ to celebrate their 125th anniversary. Gratuitous use of the word "rig" ensues.
