I just spotted one of these at a local dealer. Not a fan of red vehicles, but it is a nice shade. Is it really slated for deletion? If so, big mistake!

Figures I would fall in love with this color and change my early reservation order to RR only to find out it has been discontinued for 2022. Hot Pepper red is no bueno.

I thought I'd take a chance and order a 4door soft-top just to get the Rapid Red (well, that and to try to get an actual Bronco before I retire). We'll see if it works out. I think I got a 50/50 shot.

Looking good Mervin! Congrats on your new Bronco!
Then DON'T get rid of it in MY22! So many of us ordered it for our 2drs and YOU removed the best Red on the market for an Orange? Please I'm begging you Keep Rapid Red for MY22, at the VERY least through Job#1

I've got an Outer Banks scheduled for a 9/20 build in Rapid Red. I also have a 2014 Ford Tremor in Ruby Red which is very similar.

I had a 2014 F150 in Ruby Red and everyone loved it so I ordered my Bronco FE in Rapid Red.

I can't wait for you to get your Bronco. I've only seen one other Bronco in the wild, just yesterday in fact, but I've gotta tell you this Bronco6g community made it possible for me to take delivery.

I never special ordered before, never ordered a car sight unseen and never owned a 4x4 but with all your off road expertise, news stories, feature descriptions, photos and videos posted here you made it possible. You helped me pick my build.

Special thanks to the spring time news covered here on Bronco6g regarding dropping the hardtop and tow package. I dropped those and got my Bronco one month ago from the nice folks at Brewster Ford in NY. I connected with Brewster Ford thru Bronco6g after my local dealer wanted $5k over sticker.

And while online communities are great, it'll be even better in person.

Took the Bronco out to Plymouth Beach in Plymouth MA for lunch. I'm a married, pudgy 52 year old, but no I didn't mind the 20-something bikini clad ladies literally SCREAMING "nice car" (yo unmarried peeps *never* buy a car to attract a mate). Oh yeah, the trail turn assist in the deep sand is NASTY!!

Full video review maybe someday.

Thanks Bronco6g!!

It worked, I changed to a soft-top 4door and 2 days later got the "scheduled for 10/4" 10-4 is OK with me ;)

So disappointed in Ford. I ordered Rapid Red, Ford can't meet 2021 demand until the 2022 model year, and then decides to screw the people that have already been waiting.

AT THE LEAST, they should honor the orders of those of us that have been waiting. Don't take any more orders of Rapid Red, Velocity Blue etc., do an initial run of 2022 models filling the orders with the 2021 colors they're replacing, and THEN start fulfilling the new 2022 orders with the new colors.

Come on Ford! This should be obvious!

Yeah, once we got up to about 50 the whistling & wind noise got pretty bad. Not bad enough that it was unbearable to talk but definitely worse than my hardtop Miata.
Our base model had a horrible whistle noise also… we found it was actually coming from the LF mirror. Replaced and all is good!
