Spied: Bronco Warthog Hints at FORD Grille and Other New Details

[BroncoRevital]

Mother of god that thing is badass. Love those fenders. I was hoping they were going with the angled design and FORD on the grill. This thing is an out of the box race truck!

Couple of serious questions knowing what we know about the F150 Raptor. Would this thing be a downgrade from a badlands if you're looking to rock crawl? When are we thinking the reveal will be on this? I'd assume they won't piss off day 1 reservation holders by announcing this thing before Broncos are even on the road. We thinking a July reveal? At this rate my reservation made in 2021 won't produce a vehicle until Q2/3 next year. If I can get a Warthog in that timeframe then SIGN ME UP

New Front-End Camo A Direct Match With F-150 Raptor Prototypes
The heavy plastic panels that have covered the front-fascia of past Bronco Warthog prototypes are now gone, replaced by nothing but graphic wrap and a mesh-covered grille. An important detail is highly suggested with the new camouflage—a Raptor-style FORD grille treatment. The strip of graphic camouflage visible behind the grille has two important cut-outs that are a perfect match with what was seen on F-150 Raptor prototypes. The camo cut-outs are for the open spaces created by the “R” and “D” on its iconic FORD-emblazoned grille. This is our most suggestive clue that the Bronco Warthog’s grille will share the Ford branding of its beloved F-150 Raptor stablemate.

Signs of Government-Mandated Marker Lights
The Warthog’s new camouflage also shows signs that it will get government-mandated marker lights, like the F-150 Raptor. The shin strip of camouflage at the top-center of the grille opening is the likely spot for the marker lights, just where the strip of graphic wrap is placed.

Bronco Warthog’s Front Bumper Revealed
We also get our first look at the Bronco Warthog’s front bumper, in a more uncovered state, for the first time. We get our best look at the prominent skid plate, and our best feel for the its interplay with the Warthog’s flared fenders.

New Signs Of Flared Bodywork
This latest Bronco Warthog prototype appears to be less-disguised underneath the vinyl camo, giving us our best look yet at the chiseled nature of the widebody Warthog’s flared sheetmetal. We also see what looks like the final shape of the plastic fender flares, which appear to take on a more angular shaped due to the altered body work.

Side Running Boards Make A First Appearance
This Bronco Warthog prototype is equipped with side step rails, or running boards, for the first time. We can see the low-profile nature of the running boards, that appear to have been designed so as not to adversely affect ground clearance. All prior Warthog prototypes had no signs of step rails, of any kind.

Bead-Lock Wheels and 37s!
This Bronco Warthog prototype is thoroughly kitted-out, with bead-lock wheels, while riding on the promised 37-inch tires.

Do you guys think there will be a 2 door version a d how much for this thing something tells me it won’t come cheap I was reading the new raptor will have a big price jump of 10000 compared to previous year

Sure, put BFG's on the Warthog just to aggravate us all even more.

Raptor pricing has already been leaked.

A while back one of the guys on here with inside knowledge said the Warthog is basically designed to run the KOH 4800 class stock. I’m sure it will have the stabar disco.

It would be the 4600 Ultra4 Stock Class like the one that was just running in San Felipe by Lovell Racing and Ford Performance. 4600 Stock class can't run 37's it must be a 35" DOT tire. The warthog would be way too wide to fit on almost all of the King of the Hammers rock trails. Ive been out in JV for Lovell with the new 4600 Bronco

ME LIKEY!!

Just sell me that suspension Ford! I won't miss not having Warthog written on the side!

They are possibly Fox 3.0 Live Valve Coilovers, like the Raptor, but with piggyback reservoirs. We have previous reports of Fox working on them, when I asked the Fox rep about them at last Saturday's Dallas 4WP Truck & Jeep Fest, he would not confirm or deny, however when I asked about buying them for my standard Bronco he reinforced you would have to buy non-live valve versions as the Live Valve units tie into the trucks electronics, sensors and computers and this cannot be retrofit.

Unlikely, as we haven't seen one yet. They likely view projected sales as too low to spend the money to develop one.

Love it, but no place in Hawaii with stalls wide enough to park this thing! And no way it will fit up the parking garage ramp where I work

Count me the HATE those side steps group... ugh.

...but I'm buying this if we don't get hit with massive ADM.
