Everyone I know that has owned an ecoboost f150 has had nothing but good things to say. I love a v8 sound but the overall package of the turbo 6s seems to be better
My current daily is the gen 2 Raptor with the 3.5 HO and it is a blast to drive. I’ve owned many high HP V8’s and the sound is the ONLY thing that those have had on this motor. Further, although the exhaust note is less than desirable, the turbo spool is such a cool noise to hear.

Why would one think Bronco Raptor would be a V8 when F-150 Raptor is a high output 3.5 evoboost???

There is very little logic in the Bronco V8 debate. It’s really an emotional connection. I get it. I want a manual transmission for the same reason.

The raptor bronco will not get a v8. It will get an ecoboost v6, i wpuld expect the 3.0. The f150 raptor and ford gt should clue people in on the fact that ford is all about the ecoboost
Ford is testing a V8 raptor as we speak.......

Saw that. Pretty cool but the bronco still won't get a v8. Unless they design a different body for whichever model they put it in or design a smaller v8, the 5.0 won't fit and meet crash standards from what ive read

Yeah that is 18-24 months after the 2021 Bronco is released...so a long time. I think if you get the right version of the 2021 Bronco, you might be able to trade in on the 2023-24 Bronco Raptor very easy.
What are you considering "The right version"? I see no reason why you couldn't trade in any well maintained 2021 Bronco to upgrade to the Warthog. Am i missing something?

Ideally, I'd go for the Raptor/Warthog trim level for this car. However, I don't want to wait another 2+ years, then pay an ADM to Socal dealerships for the "privilege" of being early

Because ford is testing a v8 raptor to take on or rather destroy the dodge trx?
Yes, I have owned three Mopar vehicles in the past. There quality control on pickups is quite questionable and it may fall apart with all that HP.
