2022 Ford Bronco Raptor Is Ready For Anything

[@jazzjokesjalopies]

The 2022 Raptor is perfect for 1922 roads, and today’s roads are perfect for a 1920s Model A.

[@rromancunard]

😄😂😅 The life is special.

Underrated

[@fecardona]

[@JakeRoot]

“Emphasis on the big ‘whoop.’” Love that line lol

[@agenericaccount3935]

Ready for anything except the possible five figure dealer market adjustments.

[@EzekielCarsella117]

"I just don't have the money" love the review as always, Tom!

[@gregkramer5588]

Great job again Tom! A niche vehicle that is incredible if off road is your deal! Takes the off road crown for sure!

[@grisa12345]

Thanks Tom, amazing rig. Biggest downside is the width for trails here in Colorado. You may be surprised at who would beat up $75k rigs. There’s definitely a market for customers who fully intend to use their nearly 6-figure (or six figure) vehicles at the limit.

[@georgedoolittle7574]

Yeah I really don't get this but the sales numbers don't lie. I would *ABSOLUTELY* choose a Jeep over this what is an amazing offering by Ford as I think the hype has made people buy into a truly devastating purchasing decision for a still basically first Year production run and all the problems that come with that. Ford Maverick losing out to Hyundai simply because of product availability which is clearly Ford management *INCOMPETENCE.* Mustang Mach-E to paraphrase the Movie "Highlander" best known by *"The Cheapening!"* so hardly even worth honorable mention relative to the Tesla Model Y. I think the great news for Ford is that they had the shortage thing just when the entire USA was going all in on their 7 Figure Home that has now collapsed in value. That means kicking to the curb *EVERYTHING* that went along with that. Ford just didn't sell all that much last Year and is only picking up volume production upon all market segments right now just when people need a vehicle *PERIOD* with the Ford Maverick imho being a life line for all these folks now destitute and facing utter ruination. A huge opening for General Motors as well which is a *HUGE* defense contractor. Foreign Brands excepting Hyundai and Subaru which are bringing the entire US Auto Industry to its*KNEES* from the USA, Japan and Germany *ALL* ... just too much Brand Loyalty there. Honda good luck counting Honda dead and buried same with Nissan. Toyota which is top dog going on forever looks by far most at risk for a sales collapse, 2022. BMW and Mercedes Benz...well, here comes Cadillac and Blue Cruise and On-star so like Honda *"maybe down DEFINITELY not out"* in the least. Ford really and truly needs to start *TRULY* doing a Tesla and getting that volume production up and running for compact and mid-size and F150 Hybrid and Lightning plus Lincolns to *MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE* because there are only so many Ford Explorer buyers out there suddenly. Crazy Year 2022. No stopping Big Battery Because Germany China now tho. Absolute *MIRACLE* USA just happens to have Tesla as Global Top Dog in that.

[@noybeeswax]

What do you mean ‘Sales Numbers don’t lie?’ What’s that got to do with anything? High sales numbers are likely from Soccer moms driving from Home to school parking lots to morning hot yoga and then to the liquor store for todays bottle of white wine. You have zero data that the large percentage of sales at this price point are doing any serious off-road excursions.

[@jamesellsworth9673]

I'd have to be able to LIVE in this to afford it! I'd prefer a Ford Transit Delivery Van conversion with all wheel drive.

[@jakes5530]

The truck no one needs but everyone wants

[@wallywanker7435]

Yea I am a dope I just got one lol. But I love it. I had a 2 door Sasquatch and I loved it I didn’t want to trade it but I got the raptor 6k off of sticker.

[@wpmccray1]

Perfect for runs to Starbucks. 90% of these will never see dirt. (But thanks for the good review, Tom...as always, excellent)

I’m not a Ford fan but… dang it’s pretty cool!

[@ScottDC-Rehoboth]

Always great reviews. Thank you, Tom.

[@scotthollister4612]

Uggggg just review as what it is. A beautiful piece of art from the SVT team

[@bjbraunlich]

Most should use the Raptor as it's designed to be used - off road and driven hard. Have the loaded badlands sashquach package and use it off road and its almost the same price as the raptor. Those buying these vehicles better use them as they were built for and use the warranty when needed. 😀 great video.

[@haze1123]

4:30 Maybe it's just me, but I hate the Ford digital gauges with the huge RPM and MPH digits. They should give more options with the gauges. And the rubber fender flares look cheap. But overall, it's pretty killer.

[@lahoop]

Thank you for honest in your excellent performance

Thanks for many years of enjoyable reviews!

WOW Awesome review

[@Assgasyoda]

3:18 “braptor”. I like it

[@joemartino6976]

I was talking to the new owner of a base 2 door Bronco dressed in white and OE "steelies" in a supermarket parking lot two days ago. Really loved the the unpretentious, utilitarian look. All for $35K....not bad, given what we've witnessed these past couple of years. The owner remarked that it reminded him of a Defender, to which I agreed. Maybe I've turned into too much of an adult but I've tired of the road warrior look embodied in this Raptor. In my ad agency life, I worked on the Jeep business in the 1980's (when it was owned by Renault and the French government) and product research indicated that 4WD was engaged less than 2% of the time. I suspect that number is still true today which is why the word "poser" comes to mind when I see these over-dressed versions of SUV's.

[@DrivenCarReviews]

Those are great and will tackle 95% of all the off-roading people will do in a Bronco.

[@chrisjmiller6]

Enjoyed the video, Tom. It is likely worth the asking price, but WOW that's a lot of money

[@marcus_ohreallyus]

Ford shouldn't even be flaunting this thing until everyone who has ordered a 2021 and 2022 has theirs.

[@---rg1gb]

Excellent review. Sick ride

[@politifaux1684]

We wanted it to be called Warthog! It would have been bad ass. Halo vibes. It actually was code named Warthog and spy shots has shown that name in its wheel wells. Anywho, great video!!

[@ned8249]

It’s insane but if you had the scratch who would not want one.

[@eddstarr2185]

OK Tom, I like the specs but the Bronco Raptor just looks weird to me. The fender flares have a stuck-on "platypus" look to my eyes but Black is definitely the Bronco Raptor's color. Kudos to you Tom for leaving pavement and taking the ruff-stuff. Another great review.

[@mdjak3686]

Invoice pricing!? What world are you living in? Please let us know where one can first even find one, second find one for less that 25k ADM. you can’t even order a regular Bronco.

[@ArcherBowman]

Everyone knows a Scion XB and a Mini Cooper had a baby. They named it...bronco. It reminds me of an anime cartoon character come to life. So cute.

[@HarryKuloh]

The raptist looks pretty decent in black here

[@Ant-The-Titan]

Hey Tom! Do you think the Bronco Raptor worth 90k? I’m in Jersey so I doubt I’ll be going off road but I like the look and height and proportions of this trim rather than the other regular trims. The truck look like it will last very long. New 4Runner looks ok and so does the GMC Yukon Diesel. For 90k I toyed with the idea of just getting an Audi R/S5, S7, or SQ8.

[@vicb8975]

Wheeled in my Jeep Rubicon a couple of weeks ago behind a brand new Bronco Raptor. Did some shelf road and rock crawling. It struggled on washouts on the shelf roads (too wide), lost a front wheel fender on a rock squeeze. Plus it got plenty of Arizona pin striping. Owner left it at home the next day and brought out his Jeep JK.. Looks like a great vehicle for the open desert and the mall.

[@khunopie9159]

This is the perfect truck for weekend excursions to Whole Foods. In fact the typical Raptor owner eats Subi Outbacks for lunch! Many buyers of this car will likely want to tune it, but as they say in Osaka, "You can tuna a piano, but you can't tuna a fish." Namaste

[@robertmontefusco1902]

Nice review, I have the same Braptor, same color. I believe Ford did actually originally consider calling it the Warthog as my understanding is they registered the name.

[@DrivenCarReviews]

Companies sometimes do that to throw off people and competitors. Plus, names are so hard to trademark, it doesn't hurt to have a placeholder.

[@NHDICKSON]

Thanks!

[@denault3985]

Beautiful photography and presentation as usual. Unfortunately, there are major engine problems with the Bronco line.

[@1guyin10]

Only a handful of vehicles had the engine problem. It's been blown way out of proportion. Ford has put hundreds of thousands of those engines in F150 without issue.

[@johnt6673]

Not major engine problems with the other broncos. There was a issue with a batch of lifters. The engine has been used for many, many years in the f150 and has been awesome... Get a clue before typing.

[@denault3985]

These engine problems were discussed by major KZbin reviews such as Scotty Kilmer and Micah Muzio.

[@dallasstang2818]

Buy a Bronco Raptor if you want to do 90% of what a Wrangler Rubicon can do off road and have better on road experience. Buy a Wrangler if you want a sturdier interior that’s built like a rock and you want to go down more trails than the “wide as a barn” BRaptor.

[@robertchow8829]

I can't wait for an electrified BEV Bronco. I presume that a BEV Bronco would be the best performing Bronco variant, much as the F150 Lightning is the best of all the F150s including the Raptor variant.

[@johnt6673]

So tired of reviewers saying people will not utilize the vehicles capabilities. A lot of Raptor owners use their trucks for desert running. Their will be plenty people using the bronco Raptor off road. Just like the other broncos that are being used for off roading.

[@DrivenCarReviews]

I (and many other automotive writers) are going by statistics. And the statistics say many will not see intense off road use.

Hood vents are cosmetic. Other reviewers have shown the slots in the plastic cover hit solid hood.

No, the hood vents are functional. There are channels and slots in the hood for active air flow. The engine compartment moves a lot of air. Fender vents are also functional, for passive heat dissipation.

With the land being privatized and with major public roads paved, this vehicle has no practical use whatsoever in the U.S. One has to drive for hours to a desert or wherever just to have fun.
