After seeing what it could do to a Maserati GranTurismo S while standing still, we didn't think anything could harm the Ford Raptor. But like every great superhero it has a weakness, and that Achilles heel just so happens to be your common parade float.

In this video shot in Virginia Beach over the weekend, a Raptor that was pulling a bunch of holiday revelers on a float paid the price when a generator for the float caught fire. The volunteer fire department tried to pull the burning ginny off of the truck, but fuel spilled and sent the poor workhorse to an early grave. A very pathetic way to go for such a big and beefy machine. We hope you're happy kids.
