So while we wait for the Bronco Raptor to come out, what are you driving as your Daily Driver now?

I have a 2018 F150 Raptor

Went to a couple of dealers looking for a BRaptor.
Just not willing to pay those adms. Almost caved on a 5k adm because the trade values were about what I paid for my Frap in 17.
See what happens when order banks reopen.

So your plan would be to trade in the 17 FRaptor for the BRaptor then?

Yeah - Moonlight Blue Pearl...makes me sad about losing Anti-Matter Blue - she was a tank in the rain and snow too...90mph on the thruway in the rain - unfazed.

So it was sitting more then being driven?

I used to commute from Westchester to Bethpage with it - used the HOV lane as an undocumented clean pass vehicle, but now that I'm in the city I'm on the train and I only live a mile from the station. At the end of the day it's a "regular" SUV not a special purpose fun car, so it was silly to keep it garaged that way - the Raptor will be my special purpose fun car, I know it's kind of twisted logic, but works for me.

Nothing wrong that at all. You can do so much more with the Raptor. Btw, we are not accustomed to the limited parking and then using train to get to places here in Az. We have a LOT of space out here! Lol

I have a 2018 F150 Raptor
I have a 2012 F150HD riding on a small lift and some Nittos.... It's an old man's "Raptor" with snakeskin seats, power steps, and nice V8 roar when needed... I cannot wait to park her in the garage and turn her into a full blown (or SC'd) HarleyRaptor!

.... Here's an old man story... For my first new vehicle after graduating from college, I ordered an 1989 EB Bronco! It was a fine, fine ride. 12 mpg empty and 12 mpg full while pulling a 4000lb boat. Gas was about .80/gallon... I wish I still had that one.... and my 69 Mach 1, 68 Xr7 and 67 mustang conv....

Don't we all wish we had the vehicles we had back in the day. Got pics of the 89 Eddie B Bronco?
