I'm not really liking the Raptor. I think the flares look ridiculous. Maybe it would be better if the fenders actually came out more and it didn't look like an afterthought.

I love the Code Orange.
Is the Raptor only 4 doors?
I agree. Not digging the fender Flares at all. Or the Ford grill. I'll take my 2 door Sasquatch all day long over the Raptor!!

The thing is such a jacked-up beast, a two-door would look like when the idiot Jeep owners take a tiny 2-door Wrangler and jack it up too high.

I really doubt Ford has any intention on making a 2-door Rapter.
Wrong!! I agree they won't make a 2 door Raptor. But you can't compare a 2 door Bronco lifted to a 2 door little stubby Jeep lifted. The Bronco has a longer wheel base , body, and doors. A lifted 2 door Bronco looks amazing.

I'll give you that a lifted 2-door Bronco looks tons better than a lifted 2-door Wrangler.

I see a lot of hate on the Bronco Raptor. Maybe that's a good thing as there may be less demand, so I'll have a better chance of getting mine. I'll buck the trend and say I like it & want it.

If I could afford it, I’d definitely take an Eruption Green Version. I had a 2011 Raptor several years ago and it was the best riding 4x4 I’ve ever driven.

Looking closer:

- all have hardtops
- all seem to be on 37s and on Beadlocks capable GEN3 Raptor wheels.
- all have OEM fog Rigid lights, which is also on the GEN3 Raptor.

The GEN3 Raptor with the all new rear suspension (5-link as oppose to leaf springs) rides so much better than the GEN1 and GEN2 Raptor

If I could afford it, I’d definitely take an Eruption Green Version. I had a 2011 Raptor several years ago and it was the best riding 4x4 I’ve ever driven.

I think it’s already been written that it will be a Moredoor only. Hard to think about a Braptor when we won’t get our 6G until 24 or 25!

I thought for sure it would have pre-runner style fenders and quarters. Not just bigger flares.

I would opt for the Raptor F 150.

I was super excited for the Raptor version. But the more I see it, the more I’m just not feeling it.

This from an F150 Raptor owner who also has a Badlands Sasquatch on order.

Maybe I’ll change my mind when I see it without the camouflage. Or maybe when the engine specs are released.

Also can’t really put my finger on whatever it is that I don’t like. Maybe the overall stance or maybe the finders or flares.

Am I alone in this one?
Not alone, I’d love the larger engine but that's where it ends. I can do what i want without. Save myself 15-20K too. PLUS – the more I spend the more the other half will want to spend when it’s her turn for a new rig.

Agree - that is $$! I'll do my best to find a good aftermarket one.

Quite an interesting look, as it seems to have the factory "rock rail" there as well.
Definitely keep my eyes open on what exactly this turns out to be.
