Ford authority claims it has 3.0 v6 and auto only. Seems almost like a no brainer for the 2.7 auto reservers that don't NEED to have a bronco in 2021. I NEED a manual so I'm not giving the raptor/warthog any second thought.

Bring a drone and get some good areal shots of those painted Bronco carcasses too.

They got that info from me, so don't trust it.

Also, for $75,000 I'm getting one of these:

I get it, a Raptor Bronco would be cool but what is its purpose and where does it fit? Price wise it has to be more than FE so we are at $65k-$70kish for base. Rock crawling and tight trails benefit from the smaller stance and ground clearance. This thing is getting on the large side of that. So lets say its more set up for overlanding like the Wildtrak. If so, the price is up to a decent Raptor and since size matters less for overlanding why would you give up the room in cab of the Raptor plus the bed and decent towing capabilities for the same money? Not saying it wont be cool but Where is its niche spot and whats the point?

looks like Southfield and Outer Drive area? pretty close to HQ.

I believe that is turning off Oakwood at Southfield as you see the Hyatt (old days name) in the background of the one picture.

Cancel your reservation, and wait a year. Definitely do that...

Honestly, my Badlands build is almost 60k. Given what Raptors price out at, I don't see a Warthog being less than 80k anyway. I don't think I want to move up the price range that far. I'll be very happy with my rig, and I'll buy whatever Warthog toys I want, and add them to my Badsquatch. Really, I'm not even going to be pushing my bronco to the limits. I don't need a more capable suspension.

 

[BroncoFanBoy]

If these are raptor wheels, do we think it has different axles or the standard broncos can fit raptor wheels as is?

 

[Dads_bronze_bronco]

Those lower control arms

Yes - those control arms are way cool. Anybody else think that rear trackbar looks wimpy compared to the rest of the suspension?

I think they may have stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night.

edit: I'm not familiar with the area, but you've got to be damn near right on with Southfield due to the "U of M Dearborn / Henry Ford / College / Exit [5?]" sign in the back.

 

[RockEye]

I can get a Nissan GT-R for the price of that. It's a solid pass for me. Haha

 

[LuckyDevil]

OOOOooooo I like, minus the flares..

? Doesn't That Beat The Hell ? Out Of Your Paint!

Those are 315/70/17 BFG’s on the Warthog. Same as the stock size Raptor tires. Looks like plenty of room to go bigger, too. I’m ready to trade my First Edition in on it NOW. ?

Your are correct on the size of the tires.
