After loading my 2021 Bronco Wildtrak with RPG's full catalogue, I wen't down the road of building a 5 link gen 2 raptor with them. Instead of making a lengthy post, I edited my terrible RPG experience into a video . Lot of Bronco content in there as well. I made a lot of mistakes during this build and I hope my journey can spare some of you these headaches I went through.



And my 21' Wildtrak for good measure

If you want to read, someone in the Raptor FB group had a similar stance and pumped the video into chat GPT to generate a summary. So ill post what they got. But if you want to see images of the damages, poor craftsmanship, screen shots, invoices etc that all support my claim. I still suggest the video. That channel isnt monetized - im not peddling clicks here. Just trying to make my issues known so no one else falls into the same trap.

I’m not watching all that, so here’s what ChatGPT said:

• Massive Delays & Poor Communication – RPG Off-Road repeatedly missed deadlines, taking over a year and a half to complete a build that should’ve taken weeks.
• Overpayment & Unfulfilled Promises – The owner paid in full early, only to be told they owed more later, with missing parts and incomplete work.
• Shoddy Workmanship & Damages – Poor installation led to multiple issues, including fiberglass failures, incorrect fitment, and even damaged components.
• Final Straw & Moving the Build – Frustrated with RPG’s lack of progress, the owner moved the truck to HRD, which completed the work in weeks.
• Warning to the Community – The owner exposed RPG’s negligence in a detailed video, warning others and seeking legal action for the unresolved issues."

I am guessing you missed the fiasco with RPG and ADV regarding hard tops?

The hard top fiasco was with APG - not RPG. That was awful. My issues are bad, but not nearly at that scale. That was a huge blow to the community and I really sympathize with ADV and all the customers who got ripped off. Have dealt with ADV in regards to my raptor and only have positive things to say about them.
