Unbelievable. It costs a fortune and no engine cover. LoL

Wonder how high the dealers will mark up over sticker price?

I like the grill - wish we could get one like that for the Bronco Sport (One that says Ford I mean).

All these things added just to skirt the law. These new cars are really pushing the boubdries of what is acceptable on the road.

I'm guessing it starts around 75k and dealer markups pull it up to about 90.

Are you talking about the amber lights because of how wide it is? Or other things, too?

The rear amber lights are on side view mirrors. They should be on the rear but I guess that was good enough to pass. Half the fog lamps are covered on delivery because the lights are too bright for road use. Wheels cannot legally stick out of the body but the fenders are easily removable by the driver. Hood height is probably close to legal limit but the regulations only state headlight height so they design hoods a bit taller and leave headlights lower. Metal bumpers probably wouldn't pass pedestrian collision tests but nhtsa doesn't test for pedestrian safety like other countries do. Sorry I'm ranting but I feel there is an almost hostile trend in design of cars towards other road users.

Only a 15k markup? Thats optimistic

This thing is bad to the bone. IMO, Ford is outdoing Jeep in every way possible. Jeep's been resting on their laurels putting out very blah, subpar products for a long time now since they really haven't had much competition. Ford is late to the party, so better late than never, but they have crashed it in magnificent style. Well done!

They should have stuck with calling it the "warthog" IMHO.
In one breath Ford says they want to have some stand alone dealerships for the bronco and in another they have to borrow the raptor name from the F150.

The vehicle is beyond outrageous and it’ll kick some serious tail but it’s too late for Ford to reconsider the name. When I hear the name “Bronco Raptor” my mind translates it to “Horse Bird” which sounds pretty silly to me and takes any potential badassery out of the equation. It’s already an animal. Why make it into a mutation of two totally different animals? Although, now that I think of it, Pegasus is a horse bird, too. Anyway, Ford should bring back three simple letters.........”SVT”.

Ford is no stranger to unholy interspecies nomiclature. Case and point: Mustang Cobra.

I actually like the Raptor name & think it fits with what will eventually be a family of performance off road vehicles. They have guys lining up with $100K burning a hole in their pockets to get their hands on the F150 versions, no doubt that’s why they used the name with its brand equity for the Bronco. Some early adopters will probably spend that at any dealer that can get a unit or 2 allocated.

Yeah that crossed my mind as well but at least you could say that a poisonous snake (cobra) would make a horse (mustang) run like hell.
