The 2023 Ford Raptor R is the fastest internal combustion off-road truck that will ever be sold in a showroom. We just drove it at Michigan’s Silver Lake Sand Dunes.
Capable of supporting up to 800 pounds of dynamic load on its roof, even through the most challenging off-road terrain, the new GFC Platform Topper is the strongest truck topper ever made. And the only one that can instantly turn into a cabana.
The average price of a new car in America is $48,043. But, with a GFC Platform Camper and a base Ford Maverick, you can own both a camper, and a brand new truck for a total of $28,695. That’s over $19,000 less than that average new car.
In the trailer for the upcoming Lifetime move The Hammer, country music star Reba McEntire is pulled over by a police officer while driving a pickup truck fitted with a camper. That’s none other than one of GFC’s very own Platform Campers. Specifically a V1, which we sold from 2018 until 2021.
New for the 2023 model year, Ford’s popular Maverick mini-truck is gaining the Bronco Sport’s trick rear differential, the brand’s excellent Trail Control technology, and more driving modes. Wrapped into a package Ford is calling Tremor, the optional upgrades should significantly increase traction both off-road and in winter weather. But whether or not the package will be right for you is complicated by the Maverick’s frustrating separation of powertrain options.
Offering up to 310bhp and 430lb-ft of torque from a 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, front and rear locking differentials, a factory +1.75-inch long travel suspension, Multimatic spool valve dampers, and a tech-laden interior, the new 2023 Chevrolet Colorado will come with significant advantages over other mid-size pickups.
From machining to sewing, we try to do everything we can internally. So what does this have to do with us removing the locking functionality from the upper tent assembly? More than you might think. Check out the all new Spring Pin system and learn more about how vertical integration works at GFC.
When the SuperLite RTT went on sale, we sold a lot of them—and quickly. It was well-received; by all accounts it’s a great product. So why are we killing it off?
