    I am at that stage in life where a Full size 4wd SUV in 2 Door trim makes sense more than a 4 door or Suburban length does.

    Does make one wonder if GM would consider a 2 door Tahoe and Yukon if the Bronco sells well.

    We'll you could have short and stout or tall and toothpick at 115 lbs. I figure you were more of this anyway!

    @trinacriabob Dates are da BOMB! Love them. Buy them by the tub from Costco and enjoy them with everything. Especially a Bacon Wrapped Date on the BBQ. Try this recipe if you like Dates. Date filled Cream Cheese with Bacon. YUM YUM YUM This recipe uses Goat Cheese, but you can really use any kind of Cheese that you like. Cream Cheese makes it very decadent. https://www.vindulge.com/grilled-bacon-wrapped-dates-with-smoked-honey/

    End Result: Seeing the videos on the Rubicon Trail show the NEW Bronco has the Goods to play in the tough parts of the World. Give them all the credit for delivering the hardware Front end and Back end still dislike and I think they could have done better than a retro mod of them. Like I said, a 20th Century front and rear on a 21st century modern 4x4 that DOES NOT WORK FOR ME!!!

    Love this video of the R1T capable testing in Arizona. https://videos.rivian.com/2md5qhoeajym/1cTeiGCtQ7DtENzy5x8tNL/cc25a561ebfbd61a64582826f60f2a9b/Rivian_Peru_LWU_200803_DIGICOM_H264_100MB.mp4 Very cool looking show that will cover the trip from South America to North America in the R1T.

    With the current Pandemic and peoples avoidance to using stuff others have already used makes me think this service is now DEAD on Arrival. Edited after a hot humid day made my mind mush.

    I believe from an Engineering standpoint that Ford did Hit it out of the ball park for capability and good for them. GM should have done this Long ago via GMC with a Jeep rival product. I just think the style of the front and back is the failure here for me.

    I can understand that view point, but they then went and sold it to all the other German auto company's and the various divisions. To me they knew it was not right to use the software, not right and honestly from an Engineering point of view, no need for it when you have to have your engines pass a certain test. This tells me they knew they had figured out a way to cheat and was willing for a fee sell it to anyone and everyone who would buy. I hold them accountable for the deception they created and sold.

    Naw, it was exciting when I saw the concept in the movie Rampage, but this to me already looks dated and needs an update on that Front end. Do not get me wrong the off road capabilities are great, but the front and back of the 21st century Bronco just do nothing for me. It is like 20th century lipstick, face and butt on a 21st century body.

    Yes, the Public does want the best product in their eyes, but I also think the Public needs to hold companies accountable otherwise we end up with really bad corruption all for the sake of the 1% getting richer. I also saw the Documentary and that yes there is the one loan email that said it should not be used in production, but that DOES NOT release Bosch of the fact that they new when selling hundreds of thousands of the parts that work with that software that it would not be abused. To me this is true executive corruption on profit before human health. Good thing Colleges are willing to tear apart a product to better understand and expose the corporate lies. Otherwise the Toxic diesel would still be going gangbusters on damaging the planet. Course plenty of other product that are also doing damage too, just not diesel.

    True as the statement goes Lipstick on a Pig, I can see Ford putting LipStick on the Bronco to sell a badged off road version, but I think they will not actually build a Raptor Ford Ranger. The funds I think are tied up elsewhere.

    Bosch supplied VW, Audi, Porsche, BMW and Daimler with the hardware and software. This was a German Cheat Plan and while the auto companies are being hit hard, I have yet to see much action against Bosch for their part in creating the cheat software and hardware. What action has been taken has been very lite. $100 million here and there, but over all they got off scot free compared to the auto makers. https://news.bloomberglaw.com/product-liability-and-toxics-law/bosch-sued-by-delaware-over-vw-diesel-emissions-cheat-software https://www.forbes.com/sites/doronlevin/2019/05/23/german-parts-maker-bosch-gets-off-with-relatively-light-100-million-fine-from-vw-dieselgate/#77f8c9b721f2 https://www.autonews.com/suppliers/bosch-pay-100-million-fine-germany-over-emissions-cheat-software Sadly true, there needs to be more accountability, but sadly the public would rather be sold a bag a horse shit lies than the truth.

    That was my thinking too, the Front rake is crazy, but understandable. Love the Squared off back end and the roof rack. I am actually liking the style too. Wheels were Meh, to me, but like you stated, if they are using industry standard lug pattern, then new rims are not a problem. I am also liking the large glass between the C & D pillars.
  21. G. David Felt
    I doubt Ford will do anything of an equal on the Ranger as they are hurting due to their debt load and with their investment in EVs. I think they will be looking a bit different than a one trick pony now that would sell big at first but then fad away. I think Ford will be looking at other areas to raise cash under the new CEO. As a Flip Flopping manager, I really wonder what Ford will be like in 5yrs.

    A One Off Trick Pony is NOT BETTER. This is NOT MASS Produced. A custom build not a commercial produced product. Apple to Banana comparison. STOP ATTEMPTING TO BULLSHIT HERE. Compare Apples to Apples. Like @Robert Hall Pointed out, if you want to compare, then compare to the GLS to the Durango. Mercedes-Benz HAS NO TRUCKS that compare to RAM, FORD or GM. They are MISSING IN ACTION!
