I'm really surprised Ford is making another model with a fixed color scheme rather than what they did with the Heritage Limited and offer a few model-specific colors.
This is what happens when Ford has the wrong people heading the Bronco brand.
Bill and JIm need to bring back Matthew Winter to the Bronco brand manager position.

I think you're missing that this is a value play. This slots below a badlands.
Which if if course fundamentally at odds with the stated goal of Raptor-ish...

You get what you pay for.

Not really. They're trying to get you on foxes, for less than a loaded badlands (which also gets you foxes). This looks like it should do that.

This is a black diamond plus, and should be priced between BD and BL.
I was going to buy a 2025 2DR BD for a second rig, but you know how that went.

What I meant is you can't get Raptor like performance without spending for the rig itself or some reasonable subset of its components.

If the above can be accomplished, it certainly not a bad thing.

But, I'm not at all sure three won't be a non RTR path to Fox HOSS 3.0 version shocks for less cost than the RTR+SAS.

There's nothing stopping Ford from allowing you to add the "Wildtrak package" to your Sasquatch order right now, other than they want to up-charge you for something.

It's what their wife tells them to buy.
Honestly, if I were married and the wife told me I could only have a Bronco if it was a 4 door...I'd get the station wagon. I love my 2 doors, but I don't know I'd die on that hill vs a wife.

My wife would never act like that.

“The difference is the access point, the accessibility,” said Ed Krenz, Bronco chief program engineer. “This very much can be seen as a step into the Raptor family.” 🤔 He must've forgot they very quietly rolled out a Ranger Raptor with the 3.0 V6 making 405 HP, Fox live valve shocks and weighing a couple hundred pounds less. Oh yeah and a price point under 60k. They are full of it.. its a wool over the eyes gimmick to cash in on bronco and RTR name. But to each his own...
