The Experience
Dave Brooks purchased a new Ford Raptor from Lasco Ford in Fenton, MI. He opted to take advantage of the Raptor Assault experience on a weekend trip to Utah. According to Dave, it is a must see and fabulous fun adventure. “The local mountain terrain is beautiful and driving the new Raptor to its capacity is an exhilarating rush. I would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to see what the new Raptor is capable of.”
