My dealer contacted me yesterday with the option of ordering a Bronco raptor. They were getting one allocation. They wanted $15k over sticker. I said if they'd give me $45k on trade for my wife's 2013 raptor I would do it. They said I'd have to sell the truck myself, so I passed. Not paying over...
I'm disappointed that they went out of their way to come up with all new trim package names for the bronco until the Broncos raptor. If they had went with f150 trim names to begin with, that'd be fine. Its kinda like they got lazy and said fuckit, just call it Broncos raptor. Just expected...
My local dealer received a demo bronco from ford specifically so people could come in and see one in person and test drive. They made it sound that all dealers were getting one. They weren't allowed to sell it until it had a certain amount of miles on it.
Lol,I just doubled the number of forums I belong to today. I don't know if I can keep up with 2, let alone 3. Maybe in the very near future ill check it out. Thanks for the heads up.
If Ford is smart, they'll have a huge amount of accessories available for the bronco, like the jeep and side by side market. Fenders, tube doors, aux. lighting, bumpers, etc, etc.
Body is extremely clean. It had 2 small surface rust spots on the inside floor 6 years ago. Treated that when I was putting it together. Interior is a work in progress. Dash and door panels are decent, new carpeting, and I redid a pair of mustang gt bucket seats. Still need to address the rear...
Approximately 117,000 on the drive train. Unsure what's on the body. I'd consider giving it up for a bronco raptor. Probably gonna be out of reach for me for a few years though.
Thanks! I've driven a new 4 door twice, both with soft tops. I liked it except for the 4 cyl. and the soft top. It's not something I would daily drive. I'd like to have a 2 door hardtop, but now the raptor version has caught my eye.
My current 94 is all 82 running gear. The body of the 82 mostly returned to mother earth , so I found a 94 that someone had brought from Florida with no drive train and swapped all my stuff under it. Doesn't get used hardly at all anymore since we got into side by sides.
I'm thinking maybe they're easily removed when off roading and they are what they are just to be street legal? Maybe ford performance will have a much nicer set of fenders available that look much better? Just a thought.....
Received an invite from Shaggy. Figured I'd check it out. I've owned Broncos since 1984 for the most part, minus maybe 5 years. Currently own a1994. Don't know if I'll ever own a new bronco, but I really like the two door. Curious about the new raptor version.
