Bronco Raptor
Hey all, first timer here. Longtime Mustang driver. Had a 2000 V6 as my first vehicle, then went to a 13 GT, and just recently an 18 GT350.

I traded the GT350 in on a Bronco Raptor when it finally came in. I was a “golden ticket” holder and paid MSRP for it. I have had it since September. Absolutely love it.

Anyway, a buddy of mine works for a Ford dealer and has a Dark Horse allocation, and he said if I want it, it’s mine.

I honestly have not been following any S650 news, but I did watch the reveal and am somewhat familiar with the Dark Horse.

Here is the predicament. Idk if I should should keep the Bronco, or trade it in for the DH. I realize they are two totally different vehicles. I would get $15k more than what I paid for the Braptor, plus MSRP on the DH. No markups. I’d have to buy a beater in the meantime.

is the DH as elusive/exclusive as the Bronco Raptor? Or will they be mass produced?

thanks for the help all. I frequent Bronco6G almost daily, so I am familiar with these forums!

The dark horse will definitely be a more exclusive/rare vehicle than the bronco raptor.

Hell no.. Brrraptors are solidly 100k plus

DH will never see those values.

Yeah keep the Raptor. Just the story you told about getting it is enough to make me hold onto it. If you sold it, that would be the one that got away. Plus you said you love it.

Look around this forum. There have been a few posts where people have mentioned dealerships were flooded with Bronco orders on Monday and little to none action on the mustang. You'll be able to get a DH a lot easier than another Bronco Raptor.

Thanks for the opinions. After sleeping on it and talking to some more friends about it, I am going to keep the Raptor.

I feel the Raptor Bronco is the hotter item. Next year, the Dark Horse will be upgraded in some way and they will mean just a little less than they do now. No disrespect to the Dark Horse peeps, I would have loved to buy one right now as well. The Bronco Raptor though, will likely see minor upgrades.

Keep the raptor 100%. Wait and see what variant comes next, then if you still want a fun car, cash out your outrageous braptor equity on a mustang thats noticeably better than your 350 was (the 24 DH is not that).

Why isn't the bronco a 2 door. only one I'd want.4 doors will be a dime a dozen. even if it has the word raptor on it.

Raptor only comes in four door. All the other trims have a two door option. Raptors will never be a dime a dozen.
