It is. Been waiting for toyota to respond to the ranger, gm twins, and gladdy, but so far doesnt sound like much response. Hope this market gets some of that benefit of competition.

The Bronco will last 10 years, max. Maybe 15 out of the nameplate with another Bronco 2 where they try to make it a CUV EV. |

Isn't the Bronco Sport the CUV?

This newer version will hopefully have a longer run than the Toyota FJ. As far as the 15 year outlook? Anyone's guess, but if they are as or more dependable than the Wrangler, capable, and not subject to an EV-only nationwide rule, I can see them having a decent run. I see the Sport as the more likely victim of the axe. But I hate CUVs and always root against them. |

I wouldn’t mind a 4 door with a non removable top but had the massive pano sunroof like my raptor does. |

On a practicality note, the 2 door Bronco has about twice the cargo volume of the 2 door Wrangler. I was considering a Wrangler 2 door a year ago but they have next to no cargo space with the rear seats up and not very much with the rear seats down. |

I live in Wrangler central out here in AZ, and I honestly couldn't tell you the last time I saw a JK/JL two door - they're rare. The four door is just a much better vehicle with little compromise over the two door, other than some worse angles and price. |

Noticed this a few years ago.
Two door Jeeps just look weird now. Something off, after being iconic forever. Now the 4dr is the icon. |

What's funny is the roots of the Jeep were in World War II. Eisenhower said it was one of the key vehicles that got us through the war, along with the Bulldozer. Now look at it.

So it looks like Ford ran the Broncos on the Rubicon trail. Apparently they made it but not without battle damage. Skid plates and bumpers were pretty beat. Not really an IFS strength in the rocks, especially with those bumpers so low. I suspect they’ll be revising at the minimum the bumpers.

they will not revise them, they will just offer you one of the many optional bumpers in their Ford Performance Catalog. Ford is going to be able to print money on these!

Gonna disagree. After watching the video of them testing on the Rubicon trail the 4door looks weird and the proportions of the 2dr look much better. Although the sill still looks too high or the roofline too short, one of the other. Definitely a much larger vehicle than the original, but then , what isn’t nowadays?

I jokingly asked the wife if I could have a Bronco and she surprisingly said yes. Its not like I don't want one but I don't really need one. I just want something with as much cargo space as my current 15' 4Runner but faster. The 4R is so slow. I doubt the Bronco will offer the same amount of cargo space.

This is fair. In fact, Ford would be smart to offer a higher clearance off road bumper/s as an option straight from the factory. I forgot Jeep does this with their steel bumper with the removable wings. For the majority of buyers the regular bumpers will be fine. |

Surprised no-one posted this. Looking good. I like the blues and the shark color one looks cool too. Looks like the shark grey color is callEd cactus grey.
