What car screams all American authenticity, raw off-road power, and represents a full-circle piece of automotive history? We give you, the 2023 Ford Bronco Raptor.

In this episode of ICONS, Jason Cammisa reviews the Ford Bronco Raptor, alongside the Jeep Wrangler 392, the Mercedes G63 AMG, and the Land Rover Defender 90 V8. Jason puts the BRaptor to the test, to see if it can compare to these three legendary off-road vehicle brands.

We'll take you overlanding (sort of) into the off-road mecca of the Bronco, as well as into the more 'realistic' suburban Starbucks laden lands, to put the Raptor to the ultimate test. Does the Ford Bronco namesake, reanimated from its 1970's grave, stack up against these three well established automotive Icons? Is this new Raptor revival a practical vehicle for the modern driver? And what differentiates the Bronco Raptor from the baseline Bronco, Bronco Heritage, or Bronco Sport?

Join automotive journalist Jason Cammisa on his journey, as he discusses if the new Bronco Raptor is truly 'Built Wild,' or should be exiled...
