Bronco Raptor buyers in the US now get a free day of Baja dune-bashing training

Ford in the US has announced that all Bronco Raptor buyers will be invited to something called the ‘Bronco Off-Roadeo Raptor Experience’ with the purchase of their 418bhp desert racer SUV. We are very jealous indeed.

We’re told that the Raptor Experience is an “Ultra4 Racing-inspired, desert-dune conquering and Baja rock-crawling adventure outside of Las Vegas". This is not helping our envy.

The trails and teaching zones have apparently been designed with input from Ford Performance teams, Baja and King of the Hammers champions and “world-class off-roader drivers like Vaughn Gittin Jr., Loren Healy and Brad Lovell, plus industry-leading off-road experts like Bob Burns".

Ford had already been running standard Bronco Off-Roadeo experiences of course, with more than 31,000 owners and guests attending the off-road courses so far. This one is specifically designed for the Raptor, although buyers of box-fresh versions will be pleased to know that they do not have to use their own car. The full day of professional off-road coaching will take place in Ford’s own Raptors. Probably for the best.
