New F150 owner here.

Went over this as I was moving my truck from the front lobby of a hotel at like 1-2mph. I couldn’t see it over the front end as I was driving… literally just shifted it into park and rolled forward and I heard a big thud.

The front entrance of the hotel had this sidewalk that was perfectly leveled with the ground, and then slowly developed into this 6 inch curb as it went out to the left

Could I have damaged anything?

No problem. I hop curbs all the time and that’s the beauty of driving a truck.
Wow, finally, I actually got a real constructive reply here instead of just someone making fun of my original post! (Like all the other replies so far)…

That’s all I was asking and trying to know. I’m coming from owning a car so I can’t wrap my head around the durability factor of a truck sometimes and trying to be careful.

Thanks again for answering my question ?

How old are you?

A car wouldn't have broken anything on this curb either.

Your title should say “is the curb ok?”

Back to topic.. no need to worry. Your trucks okay.

Just keep an eye on your tire and rim as you may have done small unseeable damage that could cause the tire to deflate.

Don't go on any long trips without an inflator until you know for sure. Good luck.

Crawling over a curb at idle speed, is not likely to hurt a stock F150.

A lowered truck, or a much higher curb, I guess could damage the air dam, or as mentioned, wheels or tires.

At speed, it wouldn't be a good idea.

Not sure why some are giving new truck owners, such a hard time.

REALLY hard time. One is asking my age? wtf… Aren’t forums for asking questions and getting answers? Thought so.
