FINALLY... BACK IN THE COOL KIDS CLUB!!!!

[widnere12]

For a trip back in history, on July 13th 2020, I happily put in my reservation for one of the first all new 6th Gen Broncos. I knew I'd be waiting, but I never knew how long

When I finally customized my order, it was an antimatter blue Outer Banks, with Sas, lux, and tow packages... You know, virtually everything that we heard about later that would delay my order.

Almost 2 years after my reservation, I got the magical notification that since I was still waiting for my Bronco, I was granted a golden ticket to upgrade to a BRAPTOR... Which I did.... and promptly got notification that my order had be bumped to a 2023 model.

FINALLY,,,, 2 year and 7+ months after my reservation, I finally received my 2023 Code Orange Bronco Raptor.... LIFE WAS GOOD....For 9 whole months, until an uninsured teenaged girl pulled out in front of me and totaled my Bronco.

Fast Forward 3 years, I've been in an F150 Raptor, A Wildtrak, and a new 4Runner.... Until today... And Finally... I am BACK IN THE RAPTOR CLUB...

Meet LOKI, my Shelter Green 2026 Raptor.

It's good to be back.

How did you like the wildtrak compared to the braptor? I have a '24 wildtrak, but trading it in for a braptor is always on my mind.

The WildTrak is good, but it doesn't even compare to the Raptor. The Raptor steps above every other Bronco in comfort, ride, sound... Etc. I encourage you to take a test drive

That's funny, i started many years ago on the Bronco journey too.....Base, Wildtrak to Code Orange Braptor to black Braptor and now onto a 2026 Shelter Green Braptor just like yours! These things are awesome!

All depends on what you want it for. A Badlands fits my needs better than a Raptor ever could.

Fair point. I simply needed the most robust and extreme trail viewer I could find.

Super sexy rig & appropriate name. Congrats & enjoy!

Ironic name... that's just about anything but low key.

This is cool...

Congrats on your new Raptor. I also went for a code orange Raptor to a Wildtrak. I really like my Wildtrak, but everything in the Raptor was better. If I was to get another Raptor, I would probably be the shelter green too, unless I found the right code orange one.

I really miss the Baja exhaust!

If they only made Raptors without the ridiculous 2 spare doors... But then, they'd be almost as wide as they are long.

Everytime I see a black raptor going down the highway with those fat black flares sticking out... I get the visual of a morbidly obese older black lady, hips blocking the entire aisle at the local Dollar General, obliviously just doin' her shoppin'.

Gawd those things have a fat arse. At least with the brighter colors, I don't get the visual of Belulah in a mumu.
