This truck is the most viral Ford F-150 Raptor to ever hit the roads.
Back in 2013, it was the subject of an insane jump of over 90 feet.
Since then, many people have wondered what became of said Ford F-150 Raptor.
Well, wonder no longer – because it turns out that the truck is still allegedly running.

At this point, you might be wondering what it is that we’re talking about here.
Well, allow us to let you in on the topic – because it is a good one.
Back in 2013, Rednecks with Paychecks were hosting one of their now-famous car events.
The off-roading crew decided to pull off a crazy stunt with a Ford F-150 Raptor.
And the YouTube channel Matteson Films was on hand to capture it.
The Raptor was jumped at 60mph to over 90 feet in the air – with inevitable consequences.
Upon its return to Earth, the truck was smashed in almost every way imaginable.
The force of the crash damaged the tailgate, which partially separated on impact.
A growing pool of washer fluid under the passenger front wheel pointed to an equally ominous situation under the hood.
Viral truck is somehow still alive!
Given the scale of the damage, you would be forgiven for thinking that this Ford F-150 Raptor was dead.
Hell, even we assumed that it must have been destined for the crusher.
But it turns out that the Ford F-150 Raptor in question is still alive and kicking somehow.
According to gen1raptors on Instagram, the truck still survives on the roads.
It is currently owned and driven by another Instagram user called Noe Pina.
Noe has posted several photos and videos of the job he has done, bringing the truck back to life.
The Ford F-150 Raptor that once jumped 90 feet is no longer subject to such abuse.
It serves, instead, as more of a leisurely, off-roading truck.
For a stunt that would not have looked out of place in the Dukes of Hazzard, this new life seems like a much easier option.
We are delighted to see that the iconic, viral Ford F-150 Raptor not only survived but still thrives to this day.
