Bronco Warthog Raptor Spotted Testing w/ Black Painted Modular Hardtop

[BronchoPeat]

This is going to be one hell of machine I’m sure. I wonder if they’ll offer it in a 2 door and I can’t wait to see what the ADM is on these if we’re seeing 2 door base with a roof rack list for $56k.

It looks like someone had fun testing parts durability. I mean if your going to test for real world, you have to drive it as if you didn't "KNOW" better, because there will be buyers who don't know, what they don't know and they think 4WD means go anywhere; and those few fools will try to un-KNOW-ingly break parts.

I swear, my dream job would be to be a test driver, many of them drive by my home on a loop through the mountains to the desert and back trough a pass to the city and I see them all the time in their camo with their chase vehicles.

If they could make a "base Raptor", with just the performance parts and with a manual I would agree with just waiting and saving for this, but I'm betting by the time they load it up on the interior and make it the economically necessary automatic, it'll be more than double a base, 2DR, manual.

Ford doesn't even make anything else that uses one of the turbo V6 engines choices being mentioned with a manual, so they wouldn't have the parts readily available for a manual Raptor. Which means taking a base manual and building the lift, shocks and suspension parts to be as close as possible is still my best option.

The glossy black top looks pretty cool! I'm still staggered at how far those tires stick out though.

Yeah, that's too much poke for me if I'm being honest. Does anyone know (sorry if it's been answered elsewhere) if they are planning a 2 Door model? Might consider it since I've now been bumped to MY22 anyway. I mean at this point...

I hope we get some kind of an announcement when the ‘22 B&P goes live next month(ish?). I’m not opposed to picking up a Ranger or something now and waiting for a fancier bronco in ‘23, if that’s when it’ll be available.

Hope most people opted for the soft top and can buy this hard top in the future. Black is soooo much better. Except maybe Area 51, cactus grey, and carbonized grey.

I am holding out for a 2 door Warthog, if that is not to be I will keep my 2021 Raptor on 37” tires, should be here soon, and GT500 convertible.

I’ve wanted this thing since we found out about it but I don’t know if I could wait another year for it. I’m already part of the left for dead gang but don’t think I could wait. Plus the ADM would be ridiculous!

LCA looks like it came straight from the raptor. Orange shocks are fox live shocks.

There will be dealerships that will do sticker like Granger.

And please stop with the V8 talk. It is not getting a V8.

And I don’t think there will be a 2door as a 2door will be limited by a smaller gas tank. Would you still want one if a 2door had a 250 mile per tank capacity?

Looks like a better designed lower control arm.

Yep and it has raptor wheels so it has an f150 bolt pattern

I live here and I never see anything cool like this.

Looks good, but there will be some kind of obstacle or pay wall or whatever that will prevent me from having access to it. Too much of a realist to think that I'll have a chance to ownership.

One comment on the MOD top...especially a black painted one; I'm thinking that they will only work well with some of the current colors. I really like Area 51 but not sure that it works with the black top.

I wonder what will be needed to make a normal bronco look relatively close to a warthog.

I hope the flares don’t stick straight out. The wheel track is so wide it wouldn’t look good to see a 12” fender .

I’d rather see wider tapered quarter panels , I think???


I can’t really tell

Put the 3.5 EB in it and call it a day!

That just seems unnecessarily cruel of Ford to tease a top they took away from us.

I’m sure Mike Levine will soon Tweet: “Black mod top > No top”
