Wait really? It has evasive steering but not full speed adaptive cruise? Is that confirmed?

I’d much rather something like this… https://goat-truckarmor.com/

I’m also thinking the Aviator drivetrain. I’m ok with that. You can definitely live 20-30 miles from work and use a PHEV especially since a lot of people can charge at work.

I would be in for a PHEV Warthog. EV for most of my driving but maintains ability for long remote trips. People can fight against it all they want but EVs are the future and I can’t wait. Imagine how much nicer cities will be without all the air pollution and noise from traffic. I just wish...

Probably a smart policy. I might actually find myself in Phoenix whenever COVID goes always so I’ll drop you a line for sure!

I for one would like to see pics of your FJ.

Just making sure I understand your logic. Buying an engine for fuel economy is stupid but buying one for “sound and fury” is perfectly reasonable?

I mean the Wrangler also doesn’t have a V8 and I suspect not that many people will jump ship just because of that if it does.

Just to be clear I didn’t think you were lying or making it up I was genuinely curious and it sounds like something a magazine would gin up as a test.

I doubt many people would be pushed over the edge to buy a Bronco by the V8. The take rate in the F150 is sub-25% and I can’t imagine the Bronco would be anywhere near that. FCAs Hemi everything program it makes sense but I think the more tech forward Bronco would not get as many sales. I bet...

I have no experience with the eco boost other than rentals but I own a JGC and can’t see a world where the V6 and V8 return similar mileage. Do you happen to have a link to that?

Because they have turbos? I have zero doubt a turbo 6 gets better mileage than a V8 lopping along on the highway and when you get on it you have power and plenty of torque. Thats been the case in the F150 for a while now.

If that were the case Ford would have put a V8 in it. None of the data suggests that a V8 is more fuel efficient for reasonable speed highway travel in a brick like vehicle. Yeah if you are driving hard all the time like a Mustang or something. There I’d want a V8 sure. A poor handling top heavy...

I should point out I’m not saying no one will buy them. From a product standpoint it’s a smart move. I just personally don’t see the appeal. It’s not like you are adding a V8 instead of all that shit. A lot of people will have all of the above. I just don’t understand the appeal of the V8...

260lbs on the nose of an even lighter truck with a solid front axle will be super noticeable for handling.

I don’t get the appeal personally. It’s still not fast, the range will suck, and it will handle even more like a barge with all that weight up front. I mean yeah it will sound cool but overall won’t actually be better.

I‘m hoping for the same and that the optional slide out tray creates a flat floor. I think the answer is no one knows yet.

Some of us tech geeks designed those weapons you know. Most military tech is dual use and I expect to use my civilian use on as much of it as I can. ?

My daily driver err rider.

Consider me shocked that you are the type of person who ignores people that disagree with you. If you happen to read this in a quote enjoy your Bronco! Glad Ford makes them for people that are as apart in the vehicle spectrum as the two of us. Lol No worries man, I read it the same way. At...
