We agree with Jonny Lieberman on this one. With the exception of the distinct lack of V8 engine noise, the new Ford Raptor is a massive leap forward compared to the prior version. It’s also a vehicle that is great for taking literal leaps, like the kind you’d do if you had the keys to a Raptor and a front windshield filled with vision of large sand dunes.
Lieberman had that sort of vision, but he needed a bit of help in making sure he kept the truck shiny and un-dented. So Motor Trend asked Ford to send out a person who could help. That person was Hoonigan’s own Ken Block… probably a pretty good choice for this adventure.

Good call, Ford sending a ringer. Everyone knows that Jonny Lieberman ruins everything.
