Well, judging from the f150 raptor over the past decade, which has held great value, and its main competitor the wrangler, which also holds great value…….id be led to believe depreciation shouldn’t be much of a concern.
Agreed. Funny how the industry is moving away from V8s only to replace them with turbo 6 and I4 ngines that BARELY get better mileage. The new RAM Hurrican I6 is a good example as well. It only gets 1 MAYBE 2 MPG better. Yet they claim the V8s are gas guzzlers, and these little turbo engines are the most efficient thing ever. Seems like a bunch of marketing BS to me

There must be some reason why Ford has seemingly refused to put a V8 in the Bronco Raptor. It took RAM to manufacture the TRX before they finally decided to produce the F-150 Raptor R.
Love the review! The BFG test….. doesn’t surprise I have a 2019 Lincoln MKT reserve. That will store it well. Also has plenty of room it’s loaded luxury.
Such an over the top, absurd vehicle and I'd take it. It's too big to fit down the assembly line with the flares on. My local Ford dealer had one with under a thousand miles listed for $120k with a used title.
I bought a well maintained 2007 accord within last year. Only cost was so far oil, and an inspection. Even if I destroy it, it would sell for at least 1 grand. This Bronco was over 27x the cost of what I paid for a car, that will both be used likely the same way. I still bet my costs over the next 3 years will be less, not including the 50k+ depreciation.
@@trumpet12345 No joke. So many of these huge trucks and off-roaders are hardly ever used for their intended purpose. Just purchased so the owner can tell everyone around them “hey everyone, I have lots of money so I’m better than you”

Never. It's a way to cheat emissions/fuel economy. If the auto stop can be permanently defeated, the car must be tested with the auto stop disabled. If it reverts to on every time, the car can be tested with it on.
@@TheRealCatof Most new cars have a button for it. But, every time you start the car, you have to hit the button again. I want to shut it off once and have it stay off.
So Ford remade the Hummer H2, It's for sure an incredibly pointless car. It's going to get stuck in any real off-road situation because it weighs 6,000lbs. The fuel economy is garbage, it's unsafe, and it can only tow 4,000lbs. They're easily making 2x profit on this. I just don't understand how car companies keep pushing this slop and people keep eating it up, like come on, this is the reason we can't have small cheap sports cars or light 2-door trucks and off roaders anymore because every soccer mom needs to buy this PoS so she can literally drive her kids to school in a flimsy tank.
6k lbs isn't even that bad bro I've seen Powerwagons do real off roading with 7k lbs but that's pushing it, Hummer H1 was 8k lbs and still decent so 6k is fine but I'm not of fan of the Bronco anyways
I always laugh at people driving them fancy Grand Wagoneers knowing that in 2 years they will be traded in and lost over 1/2 their value! Meanwhile they’re getting 13 mpg … in a Jeep…🫠
@@BRAINFxck10 And I've seen videos where a Power Wagon can't get up a 20 degree slope. 6k is 2k more than a 90s F150 or a 3door Jeep and 3k more than a Subaru Forester.

Dude, wtf are you talking about. The one thing not in question……this thing is unbelievably capable off road, It’s been documented. At high speed and slow speed stuff, in a way that no other suv has been, ESPECIALLY not the H2. Get a clue, before you spout off.
Under a Trump admin, this would be a $49k vehicle complete with a 5.0 v8. Car prices damn near doubled under Joe Burden and KamaLIAR Harris clown show.
That is one of the nicest 50 thousand dollar vehicles I've seen lately.

With 13-14 MPG, it might as well have a V8. Because that was V8 MPG some 20 years ago.

Something crazy with the price is that the Ranger Raptor (same platform underneath and same engine) starts at $55,000
Both are ridiculously overpriced.
96k is too much for this vehicle. It seems more like 50k.
Surely they’ll fix this with a 5.0. This is a tease for the real deal.
That's a great deal! *hits crack pipe again*
Reminds me of when Jalopnik was worth a damn
Agreed! **shoots a supple mix of hero*n and cra*k** 😂😂
8:20 those seats are sweet looking! Totally worth the extra money 💰 🫠
That price is outrageous!! Come on Ford. You know it's not worth that much, retail. The profit margin must be substantial. Great Review!!!

The only time I drove the 392 was with you in the woods, so it’s not fair to compare 20min vs 7 days, however that v8 sound is intriguing…
V8 bronco would be mint
There must be some reason why Ford has seemingly refused to put a V8 in the Bronco Raptor. It took RAM to manufacture the TRX before they finally decided to produce the F-150 Raptor R.
They'll probably release a Raptor R for $120k
You'd probably spend less than $96k for an old Bronco and your choice of V8 to put inside it.
For approx. the same money you can get a Jeep Wrangler 392
Senses Fail - nice! Used to love one of their early records back in the late 2000's!
I would walk onto a dealership, ask how much this is and promptly laugh in the face of the sales person and manager and then leave.
Nah, hold off on the laughter until you hear the interest rate and payment! Not to mention the depreciation rate 🤣
@@RustyZipper Haha. But the memories you'll build while that happens 😂😂😂
Well, a fool and his money…
Still wouldn’t buy this …. 🫠
$80K 2024 Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro 437 HP 583 TQ 19-22MPG seat 7 lasted 3X longer than the Bronco
What is the depreciation rates between the two🤷♂️
He said...a Toyota.🤣😆
Sounds ricey. Not Racey. This amount of money, can acquire so much more from other brands. Ford is not for me these days. To each their own. 💙😊✌️
Have I been under a rock? Since when did they make a Bronco Raptor?
2022, I think. But it's too expensive MSRP, and the dealer markups have doubled the price. That's why there aren't a lot of them in the wild.
Love the review! The BFG test….. doesn’t surprise I have a 2019 Lincoln MKT reserve. That will store it well. Also has plenty of room it’s loaded luxury.
good job buddy. I remember seeing that one in your drive
The fender flares look like they were cut off one of those blue kiddy pools.
That looks fantastic I’m just not sure it’s worth that price to me
You're not sure??? That shit is outrageously overpriced. It's worth like $37,000
Especially since it has no supercharged v8
Wait until the dealer mark ups
Such an over the top, absurd vehicle and I'd take it. It's too big to fit down the assembly line with the flares on. My local Ford dealer had one with under a thousand miles listed for $120k with a used title.
An absolute bargain… 🫠
You are so very Right they should have put a V8 in them
$96,000 is Ford on meth?!!! This thing is worth at best $36,786 wth
well it certainly ill be in 3 years lol that's horrific money pissed away
No. Just no. It’s ridiculous how much cars cost nowadays. Big companies are addicted to profit and it shows.

Companies are in business to make money and there's nothing wrong with that. Ford isn't going to lose money out of altruism.
When are the car companies going to allow us to turn off the Auto Start/Stop permanently?
Never. It's a way to cheat emissions/fuel economy. If the auto stop can be permanently defeated, the car must be tested with the auto stop disabled. If it reverts to on every time, the car can be tested with it on.

@@HomerJ1964 Yeah, that would be nice
Lack of v8 is shameful. Ford has great v8 s in cars now that could be used and also no manual transmission on any but the base engine is dumb too.
A quote from P. T. Barnum comes to mind...
It's nice, I just don't think it's '$96,000' nice!
These are very cool looking, but I agree, it should have a V8.
Very overpriced like every other new vehicle these days.
Nice Bronco! I just can't stand that 96k price point for a Ford product...
With a v8 70k max how it is 50k max
Of course not. It's good for 35,000.
I'd rather have the rubicon 392 over this
Let me save you 15 minutes. Its not.
That engine bay is a mess.

why?
pls pin im first
Ford has had more recalls than any other car manufacturer for the last 3 years in a row... Does that answer your question
Nothing wrong with plastic oil pans, drain plugs and intake manifolds… 🫠
