thanks for saving me 21 minutes. wonder if he even knows what a bronco was.

the sooner they make it i think better the chances a 5.0 makes it if ever. pretty soon mustangs will be hybrid 4 bangers, halfway there already. im still p.o.ed the raptor only has a turbo v6. i would take 6.2 over 3.5 eco. i would give my nuts for a 7.3 raptor because i would never need them again.

the days of v8s are numbered. reminds me of demolition man and theres an olds 442 underground

Here’s my idea of how Ford should make the new Bronco; take the current F150 Raptor and give it a 5.0 Coyote V8 with a 6 speed manual. Wrap it up with a shorter wheelbase, two doors and a rear hatch. It won’t need anything else.

Okay, somebody break out the Photoshop and shorten it up, removing the second-row door... then post it as "Spy shots of new Bronco Raptor testing in AZ desert!!!" Should get about a week's worth of "take my money", "Ford blew it", "whohoo, does this mean a 7.3l v8?" and "no way that's a solid axle under there" out of it.

I'm not a fan of the stepped front row windows, I like lower belt lines and being able to rest my arm on the sill, or easily reach over a bed rail. In general I was surprised with how good it looked, but its still a little too much FSB and not enough EB for my preferences. Maybe a little too much front overhang too.

That one was just super easy to make with a side profile pic to start with.

Slight modification on the box to hide the rear running gear even more.
