The 2021 Defender's lack of a separate body and frame does not seem to be holding it back off-road. Why is BOF a hard requirement for an overloading rig?
Overall vehicle dimensions certainly correlate to cargo capacity but it's not the whole story. Your numbers tell the tale: the 2021 Bronco 4-door is a bigger vehicle than the 2011 Defender. But the cargo area seems smaller. Probably because it is. Have you seem what an abysmal interior...
That Toyota setup up there^^^ definitely needs to come off prior to removing the tire. So I guess it has some sort of socket inside that plugs the camera? Hopefully you'll remember that you took it off before setting off down the trail. Knowing me, I would think of it 2 hours later.
I looks like there is a high probability of breaking that thing off while trying to swap out a tire on the trail in less than ideal light and/or weather conditions. Is that whole thing made of solid metal or is the camera part plastic? If it is plastic, those are going to get busted off left...
I don't think I have ever seen a discussion forum where the collective mentality was as hysterical and dramatic as what is on display here. The build and price gadget will be up in due time, well before Ford, you know, actually builds the vehicles. Back in the day, you'd see an article on some...
You realize that if they took the rear seats out, the cargo area is plenty deep, right? I know the 4-door put the doors in with each one spanning the width of the cargo bay. If these are the doors, they are slid in long ways. I think they might be the doors with the 'hump' in the window line...
Take a brand new Merc G55 off-road a bit and you will hear some rattling. You guys are a riot, as if it is reasonable to expect a $30,000 off-roady truck to be rattle-free going over sand dunes at speed. Sand is a relatively soft medium but the suspension is getting jiggled all over the place...
