The point of this thread is to point out some trends from FoMoCo over the years, where Bronco might be going based on the information we do have, and speculation for where MY22 Bronco is going in their paint colors.
We have what Mr. Levine has been quoted as saying:
" Earlier this year, Ford's...
Filson's been downsizing a bit locally and recently slashed a few more jobs. Their employment is now only ~300 staff compared to 496 employees in 2015...
In reading the comments and chatter on here over the past year from the best and brightest, you all had convinced me that the only company incompetent enough to not be running full speed was Ford.
Yet it seems perhaps other companies are incompetent as well?
Three GM plants making their heavy...

In the off-topic lounge as this only applies to aftermarket sunroofs, however, I was in Rotterdam last week driving a truly beautiful Citroen Xantia when a sudden sprinkle of rain had water leaking into the interior quite badly.
Upon some further investigation, I found the issue, Turns out the...
Ford has at least tried to discourage dealerships from using Adjusted Dealer Mark-up.
Next time you want to complain about a Ford dealership, would be good to remember what's happening across the street.

Let us go back into time and re-visit when another marquee brand was unable to fulfill it's customers reservations, the technologically advanced, very rapid and beautiful, Avanti by Studebaker.

It hasn't gotten much publicity on here for whatever reason, but today is the day that Bronco was immortalized with it's slow-speed jaunt through California while driven by OJ Simpson.
Some may say poor taste in making an anniversary thread, but this happened, and it happened in Bronco. As...
So I heard from a little birdie that official B6g pineapple pizza patches would be available to some members if they have achieved certain metrics on the forum. Has anyone else heard about this?
Turns out that Ford was listening to their customers and it serves a purpose. AKA: We should complain about it on a forum!
The topic came up today on Jalopnik and it's an interesting read with some great comments at the bottom. Most of the comments get top marks for snark and creativity...
Somebody found out my mailing address and bombarded me with unsolicited B6g swag!
The envelope had no return address, so how do I report this to the moderators?
Hey all, I had a question, does anybody know if the throw length in the Bronco will be enough to win any highland games?
My inspiration for this thread is as follows. Please note that I didn't bother to search or even look at any other threads.
Update #2: Totally not a Bronco-related day, but the garage is about to get cramped again when the '51 comes home from paint.
This has been in the works for about 2 years so don't take this as a nod towards what direction Bronco paint colors should go, but she's a beaut in green!

An excellent article which answers quite a few of the questions people have had regarding the AWD system in Bronco/Ranger.
Yes, you will have to do a bit of reading. You'll most likely also have to do a bit of noodling in your noodle basket to understand some of this, but it's not rocket...

Here is an excellent article created before the 5g Ranger launched which documents the primary changes made to the 2.3t engine for Ranger duty. If you recall, at the time the 2.3 was also found in Mustang and Focus RS (ignoring the more pedestrian applications for the block).
