I knew it reminded me of something

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.

I really like 2dr Broncos. 4drs don't look terrible, but nowhere near as good as 2drs.

But raptors look silly. I just do not like those fender flares at all.

Those fenders definitely look like an afterthought.

It looks like an iceberg. Lots of junk in the trunk below the window (water) line.

Haven’t seen a Bronco Raptor in the wild yet but based on pics I agree, the flares look cheap and tacked on. It would have looked much better if they had flared the actual fenders instead of cheap plastic flares. I like the Bronco but I think they could have done way more to distinguish the Raptor.

If I was buying a Bronco Raptor, I'd remove those flares and put regular fender flares from a Sasquatch on it.

Those flares are absolutely horrendous. I don't hate Broncos but this looks goofy.

No bias here. Right now I own a Toyota, a Honda, a Jeep, and a Dodge. I’ve owned a number of Fords. I’d call that thing ugly if it was a Lamborghini.

Hopefully you guys are just showing your bias against non-Gladiators. Of all the Broncos, the holy grail is the Bronco Raptor - it'll do anything and go anywhere.

And since when do Jeeps and Gladiators win any beauty contests when judged by non-Jeep owners?

I actually love the Bronco, I would happily have one. But I think they took the easy way out with the styling of the Raptor. Plastic flares are easy, flared metal fenders not so much.

Raptors don’t care what anyone says…. because they are raptors, and I can respect that.

Wait, don’t we all drive a vehicle with plastic fenders added on the outside?
