I was already offered 30k over what I paid for my Raptor R.... Its a good investment.

So true . I had people offering me more for my older Tesla when I picked up my new one . Could have made some profit but , I gave it to my parents. They are looking at the EV trucks now too .

Corvette is 2.8 secs 0-60mph
That’s what I’m saying and that’s why the Corvette owner should return his car for being beat by a car that’s doing 0-60 in 5.2 sec.

Why did the Ford Bronco get discontinued? Ford discontinued the Bronco after the 1996 model year due to a decline in demand for two-door SUVs. Both the Expedition and Excursion replaced the Bronco as large four-door options. Some people made up rumors that OJ Simpson was the reason for the discontinuation.Mar 18, 2022

On August 11, 1965, Don Frey, the Ford Motor Company Vice President and Ford Division General Manager introduced the Ford Bronco by noting the company had added another pony to the stable to join its big brother, the Mustang. The Ford Bronco became the first automobile called out specifically as a “Sports-Utility Vehicle,” and an American classic was born.

not only speed, handling would not be comparable.

Oh paging Mr @Bolan. Care to give an opinion on this statement. The trx is really nice but slower then the R.
Don't think so I just watched on youtube out ran it by a pretty good bit in the 1/4 mile

People not realizing just what that explorer st can do . They are all over YouTube running low to mid 11 second 1/4 mile times with just a tune . Just turn the boost up and those things scream and they are awd like the track hawk . Change the Down pipe and bigger intercooler and they are making hellcat numbers . I am a dodge guy personally but these new turbo fords with the ten speeds pushing 30plus lbs of boost are hard to fuck with . They will always sound like shit though being a six banger but damn are they quick .

Mine has to have had some modifications then. I’m not a car guy but I bought it with 8,000 miles on it from a guy who modifies cars. It’s definitely quicker than 5.3 I’ll have my wife record this week some time from the inside from a dead stop. It’s closer to 4 in sport mode. I have never had anyone get close to beating me when they try and race.

Well, Ford was a fan and collaborator with the 3rd Reich so it makes sense that his company has been successful under the 4th. 🤷

But they still look like a soccer mom's ride. I just can't see the appeal in a minivan that goes fast. 🤷‍♂️ I don't know. I guess it does kind of remind me of being a teenager and the fastest cars were usually the primered ones that never got that paint job. But that's still a stretch for me mentally.
