2021 Ford Bronco spied undisguised with roof off

[smurfslayer]

It seems like Ford is smart enough to stick with the Ecoboost and continue development.

Looks good, but I've seen the seats in the Ranger and they are smaller than ours likely not comfortable for us big guys.

I would agree. I sat in a Ranger to see how it compared and it was not comfortable. I am not sure if they have different seats across the range of trim, but the one I sat in was not great.

Can't help but notice some similarities here: https://www.idriveutah.com/vehicle-details/used-2014-toyota-fj-cruiser--orem-ut-id-33367401

Yes, it's basically the love child between the FJ, Wrangler, and Ranger. It makes a lot of sense to copy the FJ features since the vehicle is rather popular right now, and Toyota doesn't sell it anymore.

One rumor I heard is that the Bronco will be more like a Raptor than a Jeep in it's offraod capabilities, more for speed offroad than rock crawling capabilities. If that is the case, does that impact on the production schedule for Raptors? Perhaps it makes more sense to stop production of the Raptor for a year, as many have suggested. Or perhaps Raptors are produced at a lower volume.

In order to really compete with the Wrangler, it has to be able to do rock crawling. But I think a well designed suspension can do both well. My Raptor is fine in the rocks, except it is too wide, too long and too much rear overhang for serious trails.

I talked to someone at durhamtown and they said ford took the bronco there for testing. Ford made them sign nda about the bronco. This would confirm that they trying to make it handle lika a raptor.

I hope they include the 5.0 with the off-road package.
