In comparison to the late April timeframe for orders to reach dealers, when can we plan on seeing initial impressions from the major media outlets on driving impressions?

I'd say a few months from now at least. Closer to production start.In comparison to the late April timeframe for orders to reach dealers, when can we plan on seeing initial impressions from the major media outlets on driving impressions?
The Videos out in the Desert scenes are CGI like the movies...I dont know your answer ,but Im anxious to read Motor Trend and Car And Driver's driving impressions before I buy after watching the reveal of them rolling on the desert at speed. They don't look they handle the moguls very well. Watching the two door one gave me flashbacks of the oldman's 76 pounding your kidneys out. Little worried about that. Definitely doesn't look like my Raptor looked and felt going across the same type of terrain.
Yeah but look at them...so ford expects us to reserve without knowing anything, place our orders before anyone gets to drive them.... man are we gulable!
The Fox shocks on the Raptor are much better suited to that type of terrain than the Bilsteins on the Sasquatch. The Bronco also has a much shorter wheelbase.I dont know your answer ,but Im anxious to read Motor Trend and Car And Driver's driving impressions before I buy after watching the reveal of them rolling on the desert at speed.

I mean, pretty sure they aren't forcing anyone to do that. The option to wait it out does exist ?‍so ford expects us to reserve without knowing anything, place our orders before anyone gets to drive them.... man are we gulable!
I hope it's like when the Gladiator press embargo was lifted. Dozens of hands-on, in-depth reviews and videos popped up at once.I guarantee there will be reviews and comparisons out before we have to commit to paying for our order.
The last embargo date basically allows the journalists to talk about whatever they would like. But mostly driving experience. How the vehicle handles how it stacks up to the competition etc. that date is typically right around when production starts. So odds are January.
