The bronco is ugly. Looks like an early 2000 escape and a new explorer had a baby


So it's a Land Rover Freelander.

Very disappointing. My dad had a bronco in the 90s with the stripe across the side. Loved that boxy hunk of tin look.

I knew they weren’t going to get it right. Hardly anything looks masculine anymore. They trick out everything now days

Looks more like a Toyota FJ had sex with a Kia Soul to me.

I agree. With a little of the ugly cheaper Range Rover thing mixed in

I have the opportunity to buy a '96 with ~80k miles on it. In great condition. Haven't made an offer yet but I have till the end of the week. I'm really thinking of taking it.

That might be the ugliest thing ford has ever made.
nah. Taurus/Taurus wagon, Mustangs of the early 80's, Mustang II, the Aerostar and the '80 Lincoln Nark VI were all much worse than this.

ETA: Ford Grenada and Pinto

That's the smaller one, not the larger, off-road based Bronco challenging the Wrangler.


May be delayed. Supposedly it did poorly with the focus groups and Ford had to restart the design.

the other model


It's supposedly based on the Ranger frame and motor. That may do well to compete against the Jeep, but not as good as the bronco of old IMO. Needs to be based on the F-150 for me to buy.

I saw a custom build with an F-250 front & interior that looks pretty sweet.

Why would you bring something back that was so popular and make it nothing like what made it so popular in the first place?

It's not just the colors. What else is Toyota doing differently with those paint jobs? It's like it's somewhere between glossy and matte.
