    Fair enough. But they bitched to Goodyear about having the wrangler name removed off the tires outfitting these things. Anyway, they should have just brought back the OJ bronco. lol. they’d make a killing.

    The more I've been learning about this new bronco, the more I like it. Not real crazy about the front end, but overall this is a very cool vehicle. I wish they made a version that was more bare-bones and had less tech in it. Something I say about any new vehicle I like!

    Go see what some dealers are asking for the new C8’s. Some are 10-20k over MSRP. Especially out on the west coast.

    Rumor is no 7 speed manual with a sasquatch package. I get 35s are a massive tire, but still disappointing.

    I saw one of these yesterday, I mistook it for a Compass, the grill is different though and says Bronco.
    My feeling was that it would be a larger vehicle, but similar to the Blazer, it's really not too beefy.
    Not sure of the model of anything like that, but I don't think the version will make them bigger or smaller.

    Could it have been the “baby bronco” which is more like compass? There’s three models with the name, but only 2 people will really care about here

    there is much more to off road than just raw horsepower.... the new bronco still has better approach and departure angles... more suspension travel ......can be ordered from the factory with rock sliders and the V6 is torquey as hell.. which is just what you want for rock crawling. my concern is the electronics.... I read that the switches are silicone sealed... but is the center touchscreen also 'potted" and water proof?... LOL if it is.. i might actually be interested in a "flood vehicle"
