The Raptor team claims "In the upper body, B-pillar cross bar and C-pillar reinforcement help deliver a greater than 50% total body-in-prime torsional rigidity increase over a standard Bronco four-door model."

Love the hood look. The whole Bronco looks so much bigger and badder then a Wrangler!

Totally agree. Really like the whole look of it, even the fenders. I would of course see about painting them.

I think I need to see it in person but first thoughts I'm not really feeling the fenders. However, I have warmed up to and now really like the front end of the GEN3 F150 Raptor and at first I was disappointed feeling like they didn't build on the GEN2, but really like now...

Looks like that center brace is also removable for when you want cruise with the unobstructed view, then throw it on when baja. Pretty slick

If Ford is smart, they'll have a huge amount of accessories available for the bronco, like the jeep and side by side market. Fenders, tube doors, aux. lighting, bumpers, etc, etc.

You like the wider look the Gen 3 have then the GEN 2s?

So much money to be made for them if they do. I think the aftermarket will be dominated by those that are already in the market, like ADD and so on though.

I do now, however I still love the GEN2 look but the GEN3 has really grown on me, very aggressive and kinda GEN1 reminiscent. But I totally get the folks that prefer GEN2. I never had a GEN2, always wanted one and now finally in a position (divorced ;)) that I can get one and the GEN3 with 5 link rear end,12" screen, live valve all around, etc really has me sold. I am getting a 22 GEN3 for the price people are selling used GEN2's...

Nice! I said this already on FRF but would one day love to have all 3 GENs parked in my driveway. All wrapped with FRF logos! I hope to maybe get this one off the ground and eventually own a Brocno Raptor and wrap it with BRF logos. I can dream right!

Still getting used to the BRF abbreviation. Still looks like Barf to me. :p
