Ok, I see so many haters on the Raptor it only seems right to give them a place to play.

I'll go first.
1, I hate the fenders maybe they will grow on me but not yet.
2, The fact it's a more capable off-road vehicle then mine and its still stock. Just keeping it real my ride is nice and on 38s my buddies Raptor stock has like 25% more articulation and that was tested by me it's crazy.

Runner up, To many bells and whistles to break, My buddies has been in the shop 3 times over stupid stuff mine doesn't even have.

Let me clear I respect it. I just would not buy it.

No hate here, but I do love how ADV's 7.5" fender kit complements the Raptor.
Man I think part of my problem is I have to take my fenders off when hard core riding if not I would rip them off or dent my bronco. If I had a raptor I would need like 3in spacer to keep from ripping them off.

You should add a voting option for “too wide”. I like the Braptor a lot, its just too wide for trails I get into.

Obviously reasons why it is wide, to perform as designed, Baja style. I don’t just mean wide fenders (live or hate), but suspension geometry for 37’s and so on. It’s tough to navigate on tight overgrown trails, and passing others on tight trails for those of us into that kinda stuff.

Poll is bogus. Should have an option for ”No Manual Transmission“.

Fact.

Just not a fan of the flares. And the stock tires look too skinny for the width and height. Imaging a Badlands lifted 5 inches, 3 inch spacers and still on 33’s. Just appears off a little.

I'm glad they exist because IMO it's pretty awesome Ford put together a factory vehicle like the Bronco Raptor. For me it's the way the fenders look, and it's too wide for some of the trails here (you should add that option). The combo of both of those make it a no go for me.

Dumbest design non removable flares on the most capabale bronco in the lineup. Now I got a flares fall off recall for what we knew day one. I would rather have a 2DR, 4DR is great for gear, but I have absoultely never had anyone in the backseats for off roading.

Agreed. The proportions are just off. For me the truck just looks way too wide. Cut the width 3" (and the flares accordingly) and I would be more interested...
