This is one of my favourite Ken Block videos, came back to enjoy the good times after learning the bad news :( RIP to an absolute legend, you will always be remembered
😊😊
What a sad day. Found out the homie passed away and literally 2 hours later I come on UA-cam and this pops up on my feed. Rest in Peace Ken Block, I’ve watched you growing up and I’ve always been a fan. We’ll miss you
Just discovered this video literally a day before he died, RIP ken block a man who literally lived life fast. 🙏
WHY have I not seen this till now? This is AWESOME!!!!
+briansmobile1 What's up with those two black bars on your profile bro?
a saw a fews years ago in a card game with special cars one of these for the antartica
because**
Yup.
briansmobile1 late af but into this dope ass truck turning into this😱😱
dear ford.....I want one of these for christmas 🎄
Did you get one??
Lmao negative was hoping like hell I'd wake up and it would be in the drive way .....but ford let me down lol
+BJ Wilson Lol, I got one
Me too! This thing looks badass!
BJ Wilson that would do good in the Canadian winter
Epic build, looks like loads of fun. My favorite part is how you said you built the truck to go faster than the snow cat and avoid the costs of helicopter and then drive the truck around so the helicopter can record you lol gotta love that logic.
I think they were more of advertising the setup to other people that have money, but not enough money for a helicopter in hopes of selling a few kits ;) Ken Block can obviously afford helicopters hehe
Jethi Selling kits? What kit are they advertising tho? Trax are not new at all, and they have their own marketing. This is purely showing off and having fun. Maybe to promote the hoonigan brand but I can't see how to agree they are selling some kit.
Eric Stevens if youre too stupid to know this is advertising then gl with life. A multi million dollar company doesnt throw money at you to just go have fun. There is ALWAYS a reason that benefits them. They may not be advertising trax (maybe they are, just cus something isnt new doesnt mean it doesnt need advertising) but he is right about the fact theyre selling.
Jimbo Cee somethin
Jimbo Cee are you just jumping in to make your opinion known. Idk if you follow ken but this guy is a proffesional fun haver who literally has a camera either pointed at him or in his hand or attached to him on a daily basis because he is always having fun and he even helped usher in the gymkhana popularity in the states which again idk if you realize but the entire sport is basically about having fun and doing skids. if you just want to argue for arguments sake than thats fine but im pretty sure you just spoke to argue and then agreed with my statment, bottom line, you show me a "kit" they are selling and where it can be ordered and ill "gl with life". trax has its own marketing and you're all assuming that this was all free for ken, do you guys know ths stuff for a fact, because im not going on conjecture and rambling on about things that im not sure about, i made a simple joke after paying a compliment and all you troll boys want to jump on me, you guys are hilarious .
I like the additions to the sound system
Ken block has two of the sickest rides on the planet this raptor and my favorite the 65 4x4 mustang!
Awesome truck. I think Ken Block just learned the word "imperative" before this video was filmed.
I think i'd rather drive that thing than snowboard
+Louis Auto Snowboarding is realllllllly fun though.
+Assertive Biker lol sounds like you've never drove a semi-tank down a Canadian mountain. Obviously by name, I haven't either...
Both are fun.
*then, you'd rather drive that thing then snowboard
YES THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID
Who cares about snowboarding when you got this badass thing
Dude.. thats... insanely amazing.........
cheaper than a heli gets a heli to get footage
not from his pocket, Buddy
+K9 UNIT still ironic and amusing :)
helis are 1k plus each timr they turn on so when a run down the mountain takes a couple mins and you ride maybe 8-9 hours a day for all weekend of the season it is probably cheaper to build that $150,000+ truck and also its a hell more fun than taking a copter up the mountain
Sure it wasn't a drone?
Gavin Morrissey nvm I saw the chopper lol
i like the fact that he used to own a very big company (DC) yet, he still loves driving and racing.
Ken Block sold DC Shoes on March 10, 2004 to Quiksilver for $87 Million USD!
That is cool as heck...
kepong23 ummm, when you're rich, why wouldn't you ? it would be a cooler fact if he was broke a spent all his money on racing cause he loved it that much.
THAT'S MY DREAM CAR!!
it's green
it's big
it's an offroad truck
it's powerful
it's looks cool
conclusion: IT'S AWESOME!!!
Erik-Jan Heida FUCK YEAH
It's also INSANELY powerful!
super
I once saw one that was an 8-wheel one. Some guy went crazy, and there was 4 rear wheels, (2 on each side in rear) and 4 front wheels, 2 per side. I thought it was both kinda stupid but cool at the same tome, as it kinda reminded me of the 1984 Oshkosh HEMTT I ride in occasionally.
Erik-Jan Heida also like a tank
Now remember kids, money doesn't buy happiness ;)
+Crispy K but it does buy a raptor that can go anywhere, which is kinda the same thing
David Jones
Nop... not even a jet pack or private yacht with on board go-kart track will make you happy ;) You'l just be like nothing happened empty feeling, no joy no fun, NADA !
+Crispy K Plenty of unhappy poor people around too.
+Crispy K It'll buy you 5 kilos of coke, and a few hookers. What a way to go!
chillyfog2427e7738
i'll sell the coke, and do i get a receipt for the hookers? i'll get the money back then if yes :)
He gets a sweet Ford. Companies just send me dart stuff. Where did I go wrong?
Dude I think you hit the bullseye with that comment.
Dogs Gotta Eat lmao!
Sterling Fenn
Ken Block has the coolest toys!!!
CanAmXTP yap
CanAmXTP toys😂
That’s correkt
u mean sickest
Every mountain rescue team should have one like that
yeah, but probably less expensive and less powerful, you don't need that kind of powerful unless your trying to have fun.
You clearly never were in any mayor mountains. Roads aren't really a thing there or other things you could ride such a heavy and wide care or even any car up
IRYRA SMO I don’t know about that. That power can easily be used to get around difficult areas
@@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693 Maybe, but only if was reliable and didn't put too much stress on the engine, you don't want it breaking down at the top of a mountain. And I'd think that they wouldn't want to pay for extra maintenance.
@@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693 nope this thing won't seriously go up any hills were humans can go ergo were mountain rescue has to go. They only drove this thing in a ski area so it's all nice and flat and you don't have thirty or more degree of incline
"I wanted the truck to snowboard the back country that wasn't as expensive as hiring a helicopter..."
*Hires helicopter to film the truck.
AimlessMoto monster paid for the helicopter
Ever heard of drone filming ???? Lol
Rahul Roy Parangot you can see the helicopter
Rahul Roy Parangot 2:19
Your point?
Every Snowboard/Skier's dream vehicle right there boys!
Damn, that's sick!!
As soon as I saw a Raptor with Zox in the background I liked this video!
i love Ford and hats off to the Monster team sponsors and to the mechanics and engineers
I would take this over a Lamborghini any day. He got a portable barbecue he can take out any time he wants. This man is living the life.
Hell yea. More fun and way more reliable :)
Strahan740i ford reliable? Lol
Jack Mehoff yes. very.
How bout a lambo with mattracks
Out of all the expensive impracticable sh- Ok now that's fucking awesome!!
+GetTacoFaced I know, he actually made it practical. It holds a freakin' BBQ, who DOESN'T want that? XD
Oh yeah then it's all worth it lol!
I searched the meaning of cool on the dictionary and of course I found a picture of Ken Block with the sickest pickup Ford Truck ever made😁😎😁👌👌👌
F-150 Raptor is by far my favorite truck, and to see this, woooooooooow, amazing.
Says he likes the truck because it's alot cheaper than a helicopter to get to the back country. Next scene there's literally a helicopter filming him driving....speachless.
Didn't say it was his and most likely wasnt
+CrustyNuggetGamer its his
+R Sop nobody just buys a helicopter to film one video. Now if it is his then he obviously got it for his business and recording his stunts, and maybe even his sponsors bought it. But idk
+Madison Ainsworth And if he rented it? duh
idk why but i think everything in this video have something to do with monster
Very cool truck. purpose-built.
• "cheaper than a helicopter"...a few moments later... amazing aerial shots from helicopter capturing dope truck •
YOOO im from Nelson, cool too see this
i like my BBQ seasoned with exhaust
lol
Ur very weird
I need to make a smoker attachment that attaches to the exhaust
Ford raptor most badass truck ever built
undoubtably the coolest truck I've ever seen
Why are there so many negative comments? This is a very cool piece of kit designed to showcase the Monster lifestyle and image. I'd like one and everyone who clicked on this video wants one as well.
4:41 He slips that advertisement in there really subtly..😅
+Christian Compton yeah because...well...you know, the shirt and snow boards where advertising anything
+raider19601 weren't advertising anything i meant to say
"the truck was less expensive then a heli thats why i got it"
**has one heli filming him, and another heli filming that heli filming him**
?????
You saw a heli filming a heli?
Exactly what I was thinking!
Gen.Ginger Ya, that is exactly what Im thinking. Im guessing the shot at 2:25 is what where both talking about, It was quite possibly another helicopter taking that shot but it may have been a drone or maybe it was taken from another ridge.
But still, its still a ridiculous notion, (Its cheaper to build this truck, which probably cost around 80k+) I know that also sounds ridiculous but just think about it, those tracks (Matt-tracks, which also suck and are unreliable) cost around 5k per track! So thats $20,000. Plus all the other add ons and mods, and the truck itself.
So in the end of it all its definitely not cheaper then hiring a helicopter, since the going rate for an As-350 A-Star (the aircraft in the video) when doing heliskiing is around $1500 and hour + fuel. So thats way cheaper then building the truck.
But even to me, being a helicopter pilot myself, id much rather go skiing with that truck, its just too cool.
But on the other hand id think it would be less awesome when you get really stuck and a track breaks....
It was shot from another ridge on a tripod.
It can be done by a drone.
I'm become Monster Energy after watch your videos.
the barbecue idea is insanly good!
That is an awesome truck
ford raptor for the win
seriously it's the BEST
This guy redefines what we consider to be fun.
That Ford Raptor is a BEAST
You gut to admint ... ITS FUCKING COOL SHIT :D
That is one sweet rig!
That is definitely something I need in my life
Never knew I needed this till today
"bla bla bla cus its cheaper than a helicopter"
- Proceeds to film it with helicopter
+Cillian Kane the helicopter was not from his pocket. monster film crew dumbass.
+Mr Nobody Nothing he has is from his pocket
+Rsx Gaming But the drone was there to film the helicopter filming him!
+Cillian Kane I was thinking basically the same thing when I was the helicopter had a camera on it filming.Weird
thinking the same thing
Whipple supercharger....my favorite... ;)
Hahaha your last names whipple
Taylor Whipple do you make them :P
I use this as a drinking game. Every time Ken says "back country" take a slug. You'll be hammered in ten minutes.
Wow that's a thing of beauty best truck in the world
That thing's a Monster.. see what I did there
;)
CyconXc im thinking 1:10 scale raptor trax ;)
Lol. Nice
Cyconxc nope... i got nuthin
Cyconxc You are fucking rad man.
Do a showcase on the barge please
KEN BLOCK 100% ADRENALINE. R.I.P. 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷
I remember going to a hockey tournament in Nelson back in 92. We emptied the novelty machines at the mall of all the little super bouncy balls. Went up to the top of some street and let em go. We were finding them a week later down by the train tracks about 6 blocks away.
Is there a quick release button for those seatbelts in the back if you fall in a pond or something...
0:59 "not as expensive as a heli" 2:19 Gets a heli anyway.
I'm not really a Ford fan, but this one is pretty sweet. 4:43 Installs a cooler inside the truck to keep food cold - when it's snowing outside.
Holy shit that is badass. Ken Block has the best life ever.
i think they built you weels wrong, weels are round
your stupid its ment to be like that
oh my god, take a joke
You do not know how to wheels
Das a Toilet spell
i knew i was spelling somthing wrong, it just didnt look right
lmao, he put the bags in the backseat and the backseats in the bed...
+Victor Edwin Alfonso Medina yup because thats how u how you do it when you got a raptor... i want one so bad
Got to keep his crap dry.
Best zombie apocalypse vehicle I have seen so far in my opinion.
Raptor + tracks
=
TRACTOR!
it has also got a 'collapsed sun' as Jeremy described it. LOL
If you have access to fuel, this is also a good Zombie apocalypse truck to help patrol your mountain property to keep those walkers at bay.
JohnnyNismo that thing would suck up all the world's fuel in one day
That’s a beast! Looks awesome.
After 5 years I WANT THIS
I can solve the rotation problem, I'll be your driver. You can board all day and I'll sadly just be your chauffeur.
Yeah lets make a truck so we don't have to pay for helicopters to take us to the top of mountains and then rent a one to film a video about it lol
Ken block showing off his cars is just like me showing off my fidget spinners
I love Ken blocks cars so much
the addons probably cost more than the base truck itself
How did the stoners that skateboarded in high school ever get to this point?
Somehow he spent a lot of time becoming a damn good driver to if you haven't seen his gymkhana videos.
Cause he did what many don't
"He thought for himself"
not all of us are stoners ;(
*TRIGGERED*
Because you listened to the man. We didn't.
Michael Kirst I know right! Yeah fuck good grades an ambition!!
All pickups are beautiful...all of them
What an amazing bit of kit
Ken is drunk?
I think that's just the way he is.
Hey probably had a long day of traveling coming down from baldface lodge. Which is super far in the backcountry
He's not, he just talks slightly slower than most people.
Probably drunk on Monster....😆
lol .that's how he really talks.
not as expensive as a heli, still uses heli to film
damn... it's a dream truck coming to life...
that raptor is sick. I love it
monster, can you think of anything original? "durrr, let's do, like, whatever red bull do"
Please clearify.
Please clarify why this is a copy of something RedBull does.
pierrewikberg an energy drink that tries to look sportsy, healthy, and overall rad by sponsoring extreme sports activities.
So only Red Bull can market themselves through extreme sport activities?
pierrewikberg no, everybody can. it is just highly unoriginal. monster is a copycat, that's all i am saying. they could come up with their own thing, but no, they just decided to do whatever red bull does
Drinking game: Take a shot every time he says "backcountry" Warning: This is fatal.
it's so nice that the helicopter lease company just flew by during the recordings.
Thats like living the Shaun White Game. I love it :D
But he still used a heli for the aerial shots tho
+Adonis Amarante drone is too mainstream
Imagine this in Forza horizon 3 Blizzard mountain
Narwhale Bob YES they must do it
Best thing I've ever seen on UA-cam
that's some dedication to snowboarding
its wall-e as a car
"heli's are too expensive..." he says... *(has at least 2 helicopters filming this truck as it drives along the mountain)...* lol...
awesome truck though
One of the manliest things i could imagine!
Says he doesn’t want to use a helicopter yet uses a helicopter just to film him driving his raptor... I love ken block so much😂🔥👌💯
Pfft,my Prius could do that
Ur Prius is a coal runner magnet 😂
Ken block can I be your driver ? I'm available 24/7 And willing to work for hotdogs ....please contact me if your interested
That is ONE SICK ASS TRUCK!!!!
I was thinking about how much fun this thing would be to use in snow up hear and I immediately hear "so I've been up here in BC"
He builds a raptor because a heli is too expensive...gets a heli anyways to take video lol
Кто тут Русский?)))
I would have loved to have seen a build video for this! Your race shop makes some of the coolest stuff, it would be great to get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the machines you turn out!
I want this Ford Raptor F-150 in the video game The Crew !!! Love it !!!!
