my experience has been different than expected too…. I got my build week of 8/22 on 7/14 via Ford Performance chat. Dealer confirmed with my VIN that evening. on 7/16 I received my ”Your Vehicle has been scheduled for production” email. on 7/17 my Salesman texted saying they had a build...

Thanks I clearly missed it!

Has anyone seen this? I’m not sure what I’ve found, but it appears to be final MY22 and Starting MY 23 dates. I haven’t seen it anywhere else and it sure looks like it might be interesting to some…. Dated July 8 with a June 24 posting date…...

Your dealer can give it to you

Just curious where everyone’s VINs are sorting out? I’m in 1650 range.

sweet mother of all things, good and evil. I’m scheduled for Aug 22! They may actually deliver this in the “summer” as first projected. Or not. We’ll see, but at least we are all a step closer. I hope y’all are as excited as I am!

Fastest production car lap time at Nurburgring (at last I knew) was a AMG 4.0 Biturbo V8. While is basically the ssme engine, it clearly wasn’t in a G Wagon! these drag race videos of purpose built off road vehicles (mostly) are as pointless as running my GTS against its competitors on the...

Sorry for belaboring the point. I understand why folks don’t love the flares! I just get a bit snarky in response to negative comments (but yours were thoughtful and constructive) while I wait for my Raptor to get built. I hope you’re right in aftermarket options for the BRaptor. I just...

Found it! Spy photo of a heavily camouflaged 2023 Bronco Raptor that resolves the flares issue. They have put on big fenders all around and widened the cabin considerably. Looks awesome in the new Heritage Baby Blue!

Frankly I’m ecstatic that they didn’t widen the bodywork like the F150 Raptor. i plan on using my Braptor more on trails than the wide open desert. Moving all the painted surfaces 5-6” out on each side will result in numerous scratches, dings and dents, and I’m just talking about in the...

Cool, good to hear. Thanks for the feedback! Pulling those flares off is going to be a chore, they’re not Sasquatch flares…

I’m trying to get my head around what it’ll be like taking my Braptor (looks like next year as I’m still unscheduled) on the Rubicon. The Braptor width is troubling, but that width is only an added problem at the axles/wheels as the body (without flares) is still basically a bronco 4 door body...

I just don’t see the point. Add 100 HP and this thing will still be slow as molasses and more likely to break something somewhere inconvenient. It’s just too heavy and the 37’s compound that. The V6 will never sound as good as a Jeep 392 V8 or G Wagen AMG 4.0 V8. That said, everyone should...

and you probably haven’t factored in that the floor mats and hood struts are standard. No extra charge!

Yeah, I like it. I split time in Tahoe too, it’s the perfect combination

Trail pinstriping shouldn’t be any worse than any other Bronco. The painted surfaces are pretty close to the same width. The flares however, are going to take a beating. Black does look great but I’m sticking with Code Orange. I’d roast in a all black truck during California Central...

Let me know if you see a bunch of Braptors sitting up on cinder blocks. Ha ha. There’s rumored to be a wheel constraint and there seems to be a growing number of them “in production”. sadly mine’s not even scheduled yet.

So I got the Canada and Mexico sales figures through q1 2022. 5979 and 1374 respectively. Total of 7353 Broncos sold. There are no other global sales other than re-export of local sales. Figure max of 2647 (very generous) sales in Q2 2022, that accounts for 10,000 Broncos. Ruling out...

Good catch, the report says US sales. so I’m missing CA and MX (I guess) and production is all in the US. I’ll go looking for those numbers and see how that fills the gap….. thanks

Looking at monthly Ford‘s Bronco sales, production and gross stock report on another thread, I’ve noticed production almost always exceeds sales, which would imply a huge inventory over time. I totaled their sales and production since inception and there should be ~37,300 Broncos in Ford’s...
