Thanks, Ford!

[Climber]

I have to give my thanks to Ford Motor Company. Who else builds a vehicle like the Braptor? This thing is the ultimate off road beast! It takes me and my wife safely to places I would never get to by foot in air condition comfort. It has been rock solid and laughs at everything I’ve thrown at it. Ford gets a lot of legit bashing, recalls and all, but my experience after owning two broncos (basesquach 2,7 and now, this) has been great.

Thanks, Ford! Tighten up the quality and keep the vehicles that motorsports fans love coming!

It's always nice to hear GOOD news... I also thank Ford for producing two vehicles which have left me with quite a bit of joy to own (please ignore the German thing in the middle):

I like you’re automotive tastes!

Ford always produces the halo and attainable special cars incl recent GTD, GT40, Raptors, Focus RS and ST, Mustang HPP/ Darkhorse / GT350 & 500 even Fiesta ST was super fun.

Even the Bronco Sport Badlands SAS is a total blast of fun to drive.

How refreshing in a sea of cookie cutter vehicle clones.

Nice post. I was half expecting the title to be dripping with sarcasm

That collection looks quite familiar. Oh that’s right I have the same line up. There’s no need to ignore that beautiful German thing in the middle.

Agreed. Love good news and great pictures of our favorite fun vehicle….we too have had Germans in the garage - fondly refer them to as “Teutonic trash”

The. Teutonic mobile has been the most reliable of the three… but the Shelby is the most fun to drive!

I second this. Looking back over the last 4 years, I don't think I could have had more fun owning any other vehicle...

Then you would adore the regular Raptor. And you can take unwanted smelly guests and put them on the outside to “enjoy” the scenery.
All in all. Glad you love your Braptor.

I have the opposite - German cars book ending the Bronco. I prefer the German cars, but the Bronco is a fun daily beater.

I’ve had my fair share of German Italian and British cars. They are fun to drive especially these exotic ones. However, when it comes to repairs, I’d rather take the domestics. Lol.

I do adore the ‘regular’ Raptor, it was a close decision, for sure! The dealer had a shelter green F150 Raptor that I drove and it was much better on the road and inside. The deal breaker for the F150 was the 35’ tires and no front locker (I don’t understand why Ford removed it). This is more of a toy for me as I travel for work and drive rentals more than my own car.

Now if I could find a deal on a Raptor R, that would peak my interest again!
