The Best Off Road Rides for Summer Truckin’

The Ford F150 is known for a lot of things — like its towing capacity, toughness and style. But one thing that F150 owners know is how much fun the truck can be in an off-road setting. Utah is well known for its off road destinations. With trails from West Valley City all the way down to Moab, there is sure to be a trail for everyone to enjoy.

Moab, Utah

Nestled down in the southern part of the state, Moab, Utah is one of the top destinations for truckers to take their big Ford F150s and Jeeps off road. The beautiful rock and stone out in the desert make it a one of a kind ride that tends to draw a lot of attention. 

Rubicon Trail, California

Up in Northern California sits one poorly maintained road that is purposely kept in poor condition for the visitors to El Dorado County to fulfill all their worldly off-road desires. This off-road section is actually closed off to the public for part of the year in order to make way for off-road competitions that take place here.

Johnson Valley, California

Johnson Valley is home to the King of Hammers competition, one of the most famous and difficult off-road challenges in the nation. With its rough Southern California terrain, this trail proves both difficult and fun for the most hardened of off-road enthusiasts. Although the future for Johnson Valley is uncertain, off-road riders are doing all that they can to keep the land protected for the sport.

Give It a Try

Off-road riding continues to grow in popularity as a sport — and there is no better way to experience it for yourself than in a new Ford F150. Ford Dealerships all over Utah are standing by for you to come by and test one out for yourself. Who knows, off road trucking could be your next hobby.
