I've only seen a couple Broncos out in the wild, but they seem huge and high up. The Wrangler looks small compared to these.

Did you tell him it comes with a manual transmission?

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."

Articles are speculating that the 3.5 is definitely a possibility since the recent spy shots show a higher redline compared to the 2.7.

Flash news: Ford dealers unanimously agreed on a min. 50k dealer markup for the upcoming Bronco Raptor.
Jokes aside, I would really love to own one of those… |

Saw a 2 door during the snow storm on Monday. It didn't seem as much of a monstrosity the 4 door is. They're still really tall though... he probably didn't get stuck.

My brother has been very intrigued by the Bronco and took me for a test drive. Maybe it's my inherent bias toward sporty luxury cars, but I really was not a fan. The Bronco felt like a toy rather than a daily driver. Soft top model had horrible rattles even in the parking lot and insane wind noise as the speed climbs. Noisy engine too. Weird experience for me sitting so high up that I was looking down at 4Runners and Wranglers.
I won't harp on the interior since it's a utilitarian off-roader that will get dirty inside. Styling and tech are really good. Very long wait list and high price. I can see the appeal as a toy for driving locally and/or off-roading, but not with the way the market is right now.

Official teaser:
Turns out it doesn't have the 2.7 or 3.5, but a 3.0TT. Presumably a modified version of the MKZ/Continental engine that they also put in the new Explorer. Interesting choice to go with a car engine in a BOF truck. |

Sadly I agree, for the money and size, I think I would just get a Raptor. I'm still waiting for my Badlands and the Rubicon is on my bucket list. The extra width of this thing could be a problem. That said I'm sure this thing will be badass off road, and I am probably going to end up with 37s on my bronco (IF IT EVER GETS BUILT!!!!).

You can still find Launch Edition A90 Supras under MSRP when a few years ago people were paying $20-30-40k above for them............only for the car to be updated the next year and have different colored side view mirrors. "There's a sucker born every minute." |
