"Bronco will be a no-compromise midsize 4x4 utility for thrill seekers who want to venture way beyond the city... Ranger is for truck buyers who want an affordable, functional, rugged and maneuverable pickup that’s Built Ford Tough"
That's not technically what they said. Utility implies a much...
I don't think your going to be too disappointed. I have a few friends at Ford one of which had alot to do with the Bronco during the advanced stages of development. The JK and now JL/T was/are the benchmark, figuratively and literally. At the very least it will be a Ranger with better...
It most certainly does place a little more strain, one of the reasons kept it around 2" with the 5100 shocks. I use the "Off Road Conditions" selection for my vehicle profile for its maintenance scheduled through Ford.

You, and probably 95% of the target demographic are happy about the way the Bronco is shaping up. This is similar to the whole strategic outlook of the 6gen Camaro and the Mustangs... The Camaro offered alot of performance out of the gate, and was able to build upon that after launch. The...
"New" is the most inappropriately used term in the auto industry. Aside from maybe pickup points for the suspension there is pretty much nothing common from the Global ranger to the North American Ranger from frame/chassis and power train perspective. Strategically they are similar in the...
