"What we've done is, if you're an experienced driver and you're driving at your limit off road .. we've made sure that it can take that kind of abuse. But we can't warrant it for [excessive stunts]."
Seems clear enough but the point is, it is possible if something breaks when driving at your limit then you could be on your own as Ford will determine if in their opinion it was as a result of excessive stunts, which could have a very wide interpretation !!!.
I know my limit would see it getting some air so would it be covered

So let's cut to the chase, are you a potential buyer, I know I'm not as a Wildtrak is as far as I'd go.
You can buy the Ranger Raptor and drive to it's limits and be covered by a factory warranty and have no other factory built vehicle available from any Australian importer that can match it off road. Or you can buy your own (insert model) and modify it to as far as you want, jump as much and as high as you want and have no factory warranty from anyone..it's that easy.
