Sweet truck!

The backseat isn't big enough for older kids or adults?

It is, but I wouldn't say comfortably, but it could be ymmv. I'm 6'6" and my 3 year old barely fit behind me, but my 13 year old fit behind my wife easily. It's possible two adults could fit behind two people of average height.

Nice!

I saw this video earlier which illustrates the 2nd row legroom in the bronco raptor.

The guy in the video is 6'3" and he's sitting behind where he has his seat normally set, and as you can see it'd be really tight for an adult for any length of time.

Whoa yeah that looks pretty tight.

Been thinking about snagging one of these when my son turns 16 in a few years. Coming from a Jeep SRT, how's the get-up-and-go with 37s? I'm wanting something that can massacre Houston's decrepit roads but have enough HP that you don't worry about getting up to highway speeds+ quickly. Also would be nice to have some fun on the ranch off-roading and crawling.

The get up and go is not insane. The 3.0 v6 twin turbo only puts out 400 hp or so. Don't get me wrong it accelerates great, but it doesn't have the "rocket ship" takeoff of the TRX or Raptor R.

The ride is absolutely super smooth though, and with such a narrow wheel base, it handles better than anything I've ever driven. I did a U-turn in my driveway last night.

If you want get up and go on 37s buy a 392 Wrangler!

Those are awesome, but I felt like I was in a sardine can. At least in the bronco, the driver and front row passenger are super comfortable even if the people in the back aren't.

Woah. Super fun!

I'm going to change my answer on the acceleration, it's great for what it is. I found "sport mode", I had it it "normal" by default and sports mode is super peppy.

So far after almost two weeks it's the most fun vehicle I've owned. It fits in parking spots like a car, has the nimbleness of a car, but rides high up and absolutely slays bumps and uneven pavement.

Again, not a family vehicle and some mind numbing accessory deficiencies for a 6 figure vehicle (manual folding mirrors, no cooled seats) but aside from that is a blast to drive
