That's an hour of my life, i can't get back.So what did they announce? Is the tune coming?
A 5.0 won’t blow to smithereens when tuned. A v8 also doesn’t sound like a lawn mower. A v8 will probably last longer than the ecoboost.Everybody keeps saying they want a V-8 and I get it. I love me some V-8, but like above the engineers discussed this. The 3.0L twin turbo has more horsepower , more torque and torque at a lower RPM than the 5.0. and it weighs less. Ford already chose the stronger motor for the bronco raptor. If they do make an R model, it’s not gonna be with the 5.0 V8 because the regular bronco raptor would be faster.
idk why yall thought something with “ford performance” would have actual model releasesThat's an hour of my life, i can't get back.
It was an overview of Ford racing and didn't have anything to do with new models.

Yeah.... I think we got duped into thinking they would be talking about new product available for us to buy.That's an hour of my life, i can't get back.

But no, it was just an overview of what Ford is doing for the various professional racing programs. The only two off-roading items mentioned below. Both are concept vehicles, more or less.
Ford Ranger M-Sport
Ford Lightning Switchgear
Farley mentioned specifically 2025 and beyond I took that as something is coming for the Bronco refresh whether is 25 or 26. Switchback is definitely the driving vehicle in flushing some of that out.Looks like they are trying to warm us up to the idea of a Raptor EV.
Welp, I guess we wait for a future announcement on the tune.
I am still confident it will arrive, just a matter of time.
Don't temp me with a good time.Heck, why not a Raptor Ford Transit while they're at it!
I am 100% convinced this would sell. The van overlanding scene is big enough for a Transit that's already outfitted for it. The more powerful 3.5L ecoboost will plop right in since it already has the standard one as an option.Don't temp me with a good time.
