Things you hate about your Bronco Raptor (Tongue-in-cheek)

[Ape Factory]

#1 When a bird poops at the top, dead center of the windshield leaving a white streak all the way down into the wiper and forcing you to get a ladder out to reach it even though you're well over 6ft. tall.

#2 Spending $90K on a truck only to discover you still need $40K in mods.

#3 Being a modaholic, other, enabling Braptor owners cheering you on into buying all those mods.

#4 $250 molle panels.

#5 Toyota Corollas that try to bully you on the road and think they'd come out on the winning end of things.

Add yours!

1 . No dual seat position memory with auto retract upon opening door, the later being a configuration setting.

2. No removable plastic under body panels between frame and pinch welds tucked up high enough not to be damaged but would prevent underbody cavities from filling with mud, sand, road salt, etc…

3. Plastic interior panels that mare/scratch easily.

4. No Auto window dropping using door handle proximity sensors upon opening. (Some have this feature others don’t)

5. No cooled seats.

6. BRaptor Modaholics complaining other BRaptor owners (possibly also Modaholics) are enticing and enabling one of their most outstanding, respectful, and dignified personality traits!

No easy on/off flare deletes. Come on, third-party vendors, get in the game.

Living so far away from Johnson Valley, Anza Borrego, Death Valley and Glamis....................and although I love the 3.0 engine, it would be cool to have a V8!
This is still the absolute funnest vehicle I have ever owned!

Small stuffs...

No auto hold
Auto cruise can't active in low speed
No blue cruise function in 100k Ford
Aux swatches amperage too low for powerful lights
Small fuel tank
No memory seats even with 2k option on these seats
Too many negative on social media, drive down the resale

 

[Gibby1392]

1. Interior scratches way to easily
2. No memory seat positions.
3. No cooled vented seats.
4. For this price you’d think you’d get rear heated/vented seats.
5. Removable fenders would be nice for tight trails.
6. Wish the rear camera would work as a review mirror camera like some truck come these days. That rear brake light blocks your view.
7. AUX switches need more amps

All these aside I still love the Bronco and don’t regret it one bit

1)Having Jeep owners give you a one fingered salute.
2) Ford didn't beat Ferrari with a V6.
3) Spending more in Mods then what I have lost in the market lately.
4) My first two color choices were deleted in 23, Velocity blue, and eruption green.

Hate:

Everything about the wobbly windows. I’d take a hardtop version just to avoid the wobble. Would be quieter too.

Parking brake position. Should be a button on the stick shift knob.

Short leads for the Aux wiring. Another foot of wire would have made connections so much easier

Would have been nice:

Easily Removable fender flares, even if it’s ugly with them off

V8, only thing holding this back from totally outrageous. That said, the 3.0 TT is fine for my needs. .

Bigger gas tank, just 3 more gallons would probably eliminate needing a rotopax

I really hate when a stranger pulls up next to me and wants to talk about my rig! This happened just last week at a stoplight when an stranger asked me “is it a special kind of Bronco or something”, and the guys son in the passenger seat was snapping pictures like fcuking paparazzi!

Tongue Weight Max is lame. I hope someone fabs some airbags soon. I added the Eibach springs and it helps but its still not perfect.

 

[Ironmike]

I hate that I can’t spend more time offroad in it. It begs to get out in the backcountry.

Speaking of things you hate (y'all way too serious!), flapping rear seatbelts with the top off. Other than buckling them in, which only works so much, is there a product out there I've somehow missed that stops this? I'm about to go 1990 and find some some Sparco seatbelt pads.

There's gotta be some trick, right?

I have these on the Badlands, make sure they get a good bond and cure for couple day's before 1st usage. There are several different rear seat belt retainer clips on the market now.

Sorry, this is a serious reply

 

[Ape Factory]

It was a serious question and exactly what I was looking for so much appreciated!

 

[TurboS]

I hate that the Bronco Raptor can be fitted with larger tire/wheel combinations and that there are so dang many choices! If I could have bought every tire/wheel set that I've seen and liked on this site...well... I could have bought another Raptor for less.
Why did Ford put these little 37's on there anyways.

How are you liking the Eibachs?

Wiper juice reservoir that doesn't even hold a half gallon of fluid.

Grab bars on the roll cage should be stock.

Better stock sound system / sound bar.

Give us the shade of orange in the Code Orange package so I don't have to keep sending stuff back trying to get the right shade. I'm not OCD, you are.

Raptor Signature pee bottle

Raptor Signature bear spray

One Raptor Get out of Jail free card (hopefully never used)

and a Raptor Super Duty pressure washer for the mud. We got into some the other day in the back country. I wasn't sure we were going to make it out. Mud, man....mud. Me don't like the mud. Me don't like the cleaning.
