Reviews? First drives?

I'm planning to jump mine across a creek, live on YouTube. No aquatic species will be harmed

Just pray it's not TFL that gets the first review. It'd be yet another TRX drag race video plus rock crawling since that's what baja is all about.

First reviews will come from actual buyers' cars. Not press/dealer demos. Whoever gets their Raptor first could be sitting on a dollar or 2 if they are halfway charismatic on camera with halfway decent camera skills. Replicate the car reviewers' vids of guys that have a million+ subscribers.

I’m damn good looking so I appreciate the advice, good sir.

I fully expect the first order takers on here to send us the live streams. If not, you are shunned forever

It will definitely be TFL, lol.

Ford did their own video months ago, that was enough for me, even though I’m not upgrading yet, more waiting to see if something better comes along in a year or two.

Something better always comes along.

Maybe I'm a little off base, but isn't it a tad weird that no major automotive blog/magazine etc has done an in depth review or first drive yet?

Normally you see first drives months before a launch amd we are practically here, I mean some of you should receive orders in a few weeks.

Nah, what’s weird is the sheer amount of folks who will fork over nearly $100k on a vehicle that they haven’t even seen in a showroom, sat in, driven, or even looked at….let alone watched/read an in-depth review, hell- they don’t even know how much power it makes or what the fuel economy is supposed to be

brave deep pocketed folks on this ‘ol raptor forum eh?

Well, they convinced me not to buy a Defender for off-roading.

This is normal and expected, not weird. Whether it's a logical decision is debatable, but really depends on what's important to your deep pockets, as you pointed out.

I'll be honest, if I had a few million in the bank, I probably would have one on order.
