Prototype Ford Bronco R Race Truck Fails to Finish 2019 Baja 1000

Maybe - I am sure that they will have to do something like an FX4 / offroad package at the very least. The new Tahoe has an offroad package... looks silly though. For the bronco, I would bet that you will be able to get the new small diesel from the current f150 (3.0 if I remember), or whatever the next v8 is in the f150 (if they move from the 5,0 to some other displacement). I would be in for this new bronco if it is what we are talking about.

That is what I'm hoping for!!!
The pictures I and Pacific Wheel posted earlier, to me, looks like the Raptor platform.
I can't quite make out the whole front suspension but the LCA looks like a Raptors.

It's clearly a Regular Single F150 Cab with a Raptor bed and the Raptor front.

If they build a full size Bronco on the Raptor platform, they could eliminate a lot of weight,
because they wouldn't have to beefed up frame rails like they have to do for Gen 2s,
making them only 470 lighter than the Gen 1s

Better approach and departure angles.
Better turning radius because of shorter wheel base.
Allowing for more people to park in their garages. LOL
Allow more big and tall people to fit, not all cramped up in a tiny Bronco II
If you can unlock the passenger door with out undoing your seat belt and scooching over,
IT'S WAY TOO DAMN SMALL!

I could go on and on with the benefits of a full size Bronco on a Raptor platform.

Good article explaining what happened >> https://www.autoblog.com/2019/12/23/ford-bronco-r-prototype-baja-1000-failure-explained/

This is a render of what the bronco may look like ... wow! Looks really good.

Someone on another site reported the tires are 315/70R17. Could be a Raptized Bronco

Another outlet said that the wheels are beadlocks with Goodyear Wrangler Territory MTs in 315/70R17.

Ford is not messing around.

I think that tire exclusive to Canada but at least they're testing with 35's. I really hope they don't use Goodyears. 3 of every 4 we balance are out of round lol

I am just happy that 35s can fit. Again Ford is not messing around.
