Do I see long travel a arms in the front?

ETA:

Looks like excellent approach and departure angles for a stock vehicle. Should take a high clearance winch bumper well. Top reminds me of a jeep gladiator rather than jeep 4 door. I'll be interesting to see how it works.

Unfortunately, the only reason I like seeing that vehicle back in production is so Jeep has competition again. When they canned the xterra, hummer h3, and fj cruiser, and added lower wind deflection to the 4runner... Jeep got a free pass.

And as a result, they started making bloated lumbering turds.

The bigger one is like a poor man's wrangler - but less reliable, and without the solid axles that make the Wrangler so good off road.



Yeah, seems more like a newer FJ than a Wrangler.

Too many people liked it and wanted to buy it. You must not understand Detroit board rooms. I certainly don’t. My favorite is when they take the most popular design in their brand and radically change it so sales fall off. Why?

It seems like this thread appears every 2 or 3 months and every time its a different looking redesigned Bronco that never gets released.

They are way behind VW and GM in China, they've had catastrophic failures with the launch of their new Explorer, and their stock hit a 10 year low this month.

They are in pretty serious trouble.

I almost posted this last night, but because it's so fricking ugly, I didn't want to be somehow blamed for it.

It could be worse - have you seen the Toyota CH-R?

We call those Vomit-trons.

Don't laugh about the 3 cylinder. It has a turbocharger.

0-60 in "maybe later today". ETA - not unlike the old Bronco II from the 1980s actually.

That’s the shiniest clay I’ve ever seen then. Seriously though I think you’re wrong and that’s a paint job. Not sure clay has a sheen like that unless it has been glazed and fired.
