    Anyone that has a confirmed order get any updates???

    They have all the materials and have started the build process, painting, frame and powertrain assembly etc, should take around 4-5 factory days before the blend occurs where the chassis and body meet on the assembly line. give it another 5 days or so for final assembly and QC. Check your...

    Ford:Bronco Raptor's engine's big enough already

    It seems very tame in normal mode, to get up to 65 it plows through the gears revving up between 3-4k seems excessive no turbo pull. but yesterday I put in it 2wd baja mode and turned off the traction control and used the paddle shifters....it was a different truck..... it's much more...

    you know, I have to update my performance impressions. I was playing with baja mode today and if you go manual shifting it is much more fun. I was able to break the rear wheel lose.....

    Ford:Bronco Raptor's engine's big enough already

    hmm.....that kinda answered a question I've been wondering " if I blow up my 3.0 will a 3.5 fit?" I wonder if the 3.0 can be bored and stroked to add displacement then. I'm not especially impressed with the torque anyway, I'd love to at least hear the purr of a V8

    Anyone that has a confirmed order get any updates???

    I guess they've been on 150 raptors since '19 and haven't caused issues so that's reassuring. over all its fun to drive, I'm surprised at how little attention it draws, jeep people ignore it ( except for one woman who realized her jeep wave mistake as she passed me.) everyone else seems to think...

    Anyone that has a confirmed order get any updates???

    750 miles so far, I like it. not as powerful as I thought it would be, it seems to struggle to get up to 60 mph, i.e. it cranks through all 10 gear and runs between 3-4k rpm in normal mode which seems high. you can finally feel the turbo kick in in 7th gear. it is peppy when you go to pass...

    Anyone that has a confirmed order get any updates???

    I've got 250 miles on it so far, I wasn't sure what to expect going from a gen 1 raptor to this ( I kept my gen 1 anyway ). In short...I like it so far..... It's not as fast and my gen 1 and doesn't corner like it or sound as awesome, but over all, the BR hasn't disappointed.....Its kinda doggy...

    Anyone that has a confirmed order get any updates???

    There were a few times, especially this summer when things were just not moving at all. At first I was annoyed with myself that I didn't go for the jeep392 or t rex, I would of been able to get that in two months order to garage.... but all the reviews seem to confirm waiting for the br was the...
