Townsend, TN in April 2021. Velocity Blue 2021 Bronco that’s been on the trail! Good to see what it looks like dirty!

Any idea where this photo was taken? I'd guess California or Nevada desert based on the mountains peeking in the background...
I wonder why the majority of these Bronco Raptor test mules have bug deflectors on them? Seems like an odd accessory to have on a lot of these machines.
Especially since the deflectors are not even an available accessory yet on the Raptor B&P site. Probably a standard Bronco accessory which just happens to fit the Raptor hood.
Hopefully they weren't breaking to many windshields and wanted to see if this helped. 
Found this today and it wasn't here so........
VB is one of my favorites, nice to have one possing for a pic.
Seen 4 Bronco Raptors in pairs last Sunday evening before dusk, first 2 were code orange and Green, mile later the next 2 were code orange and VB, unfortunately not enough time to take a pic or video as they approched, but what is most recognizable is the orange running lights just like the bronco is with the white running lights. And, yes, they looked badass.

That's so cool that you actually got to see some in the wild! I bet it made you just that much more excited!
Absolutely, wanted to do a u-turn in heavy traffic and chase them down, fortunately decided on the side of safety and watched them disappear in the mirrors. Second standout feature after the orange lights is the track width then the height. It was 4 lanes plus center turn lane and 50mph congested traffic and these 4 Bronco Raptors were a OMG moment.

That's awesome! I think Ford needs to send a few down here to Texas for testing.
Hmmm, I see one of three possibilities.
1) Older picture of one of the test mules.
2) New pic of production vehicle on it's way to sit in a lot waiting on a chip.
3) Woo-hoo, they are starting to roll out to customers.
Hopefully it's No. 3.
There typically is a few pre-production units to test production line, quality, and for certification/crash testing. My guess is these are still test vehicles. Regardless, we are getting CLOSER!
Yeah I think it’s been established that real customer VIN’s don’t hit the line until 5/23. At the earliest….
Upon viewing this photo closer, I'm doubting this is a new build. Tires don't appear new and front bumper appears all black. Also, this VB looks darker to me, more like Lightning Blue or could just the facility lighting. The front mudflap also appears to extend lower than the recent pics & show vehicles. It could very well be a pic of the same VB Raptor in Post # 28.
