100k for barely a smudge more power than any 5.0 or 3.5 F-150? I’ll pass. If I had over 100K I’d get the Raptor R (though those seem to go for $180k)

dealership is great, really.

the web posting guy is some service that does all the lots around here
his work is.....hmmm less than perfect
they may have wanted a quick set as it was on the truck yesterday and showed up last night before closing
i cant imagine anyone in the town buying it, it must have been an order on the DL
but you know ass for everyseat
owner has deep reach over our area
great guy , treats us like good family

Just a standard 3.0 EB engine? I thought part of the reason for getting any Raptor was an HO engine. Hard pass at that price!
I also find it odd it comes with the heated steering wheel yet didn't they take that away from the F150s? No idea how many Raptor Broncos they'll build but I'm guessing 10k or less so maybe that's why it gets the heated wheel, probably easier to come up with 10,000 chips than 100s of thousands but still doesn't seem fair.

The 3.0 is the H.O. engine of the Nano family. The Aviator has it and also the Explorer ST.

In the world of ridiculously overpriced vehicles, I think the Bronco WildTrak is the better choice over the Raptor. The Sasquatch package comes standard and the HOSS 3.0 Fox suspension. The 2.7EB is sized well for its' heavy duty Ranger frame. Saves $30,000 compared to the Raptor version and fully loaded with luxury pkg is less than the entry level Land Rover Defender.
