I LOVE the Bronco's and Ford, but I agree the Bronco Raptor looks ridiculous with those fender flares

This may be the wrong place, but just had to comment. I wanted to like the Bronco. For years in fact, I followed the development of it. But damn what a clown show it turned out to be in so many ways. Then, the icing on the cake, the Bronco Raptor. Here it is, and, in my opinion, in its human form. I don’t care how fast or well performing it is. It looks ridiculous. YMMV.

It’s actually not that fast. The 392 will walk away from it

Wait, don’t we all drive a vehicle with plastic fenders added on the outside?
There’s a reason I sought out a JT with painted fenders. I hate the black Jeep fenders that come pre-faded from the factory.

All this hating on an incredible off road vehicle that most likely none of you could buy if you wanted to
You’re right, their production schedule is horrid. People have been waiting quite awhile for one, I don’t have the patience to buy one.

I don’t hate it, because I don’t have that much passion for it. I just think it looks ridiculous. And I sold a year-and-a-half old F350 Diesel dually with a notably higher MSRP than that thing because it was the second most unreliable vehicle I’ve owned, with 17 active recalls when I let it go. It’s just an observation, don’t take it so personally, and start making statements about people that you have no earthly idea about. It makes you look like a 12-year-old. Also, whether it is an “incredible off road vehicle“ remains to be seen. Reliability and durability are arguably the two biggest characteristics that make an off-road vehicle “incredible”. The Bronco Raptor hasn’t been out long enough to adequately evaluate either. We shall see.

You may not have the $ for it either. Not sure many do
You do realize many of the people on this forum spent 60k+ on their trucks and then turned around and dropped 10k+ in mods? I’m not sure the jump to a 70k+ SUV is that significant… at least not as significant as the horrid design barrier we are all trying to overcome.
