I always said Ford should have called the Bronco Raptor, a Warthog. But NO, now you have to say F150 Raptor and Bronco Raptor

I can’t wait to see what they do to improve on it in the next version. So many limitations due to timing and development shortcomings from Covid. Would have loved to see it have the dual air boxes as planned and relocated alternator. Maybe for the R

the R will never happen unless they switch to the 1080r trans

I don't believe it will be driveline issues that limit if the R happens. I'm sure it will more be the economics that dictate it.

not sure what you mean by economics but the driveline can not handle much more than what the warthog is putting out

I just mean the economy standings will dictate if Ford can green light full development. So many things are incubated in the niche team but for it to actually come about there’s gotta be funding for it.

And yes I constantly see that theory thrown around again and again. They said the same about the 10R80 for the F-150 Raptor R and I have no complaints about how it handles the power still. Time will tell

there is a reason why the raptor R is all wheel drive

It is not, you’re confusing 4A with AWD. I have driven it only in 2H so far. I’m an office guy I don’t off road much, yet

I thought for sure the Raptor R is all-wheel drive. I can't find where I saw that.

Who you are at work doesn’t dictate what you do on your free time ;)

Take the bronco out on trails. It’ll help
I’m driving an F-150 Raptor R right now as part of an experience program but I’d hate to damage it off road and have to pay Ford
