if the roads aren't that dusty and reasonably smooth, there's nothing wrong with doing the speed limit (which is usually a residential 25 mph) on a dirt road.
but way to criticize!

In rural areas, speed limits on dirt roads is 45 or 55 MPH, I forget which one. I doubt he was taking his SVT out for a ride in a subdivision down a skinny dirt road. Even if you do find a smooth dirt road and you get up to the speed limit, you'll find yourself slamming on your brakes or swerving around pot holes and craters! I just don't like rocks shooting up at my car. But uhhhh way to chastise!

i'm not the one criticizing someone who just wrecked their car in a no-fault accident.
i think you need to step back and think about how you're coming off here.... or is the "old rawburt" back once again?

I must of missed the part of his post where he asked to be lectured about driving on gravel roads by someone who obviously doesn't drive on them much

I've only got a picture or two from the day I bought it, haven't had a chance to get any more pictures. You can bet there will be some when it comes back with a new paintjob.
