Raptor is nothing compared to a 4wd atv of 300-400 class size, and typically has to be pulled, pushed, or winched through anything more than a couple inches deep or more than a few foot long.

huh....a couple feet long...^^^^

down here in the swamps of Louisiana, I can make it through mud trails(after rain storms) that are miles long...it wont go fast cause I will be slipping and sliding, but I make it to the end.

once the mud get above 6 inches deep it gets very frustrating and isnt very fun tho, except to spray it everywhere.

they will get stuck and 4x4's are definately better suited, but the raptors can handle mud, guess it also depends on the type of mud

has to be better than my scrammy, cant get out of my driveway in 2wd....

the raptor will do good, just need good tires, lower gearing, and a lot of momentum

dont get mad if u get stuck in 3ft of mud though, its no 4wd.
