Guess I simply don't care much about the engine available. If it has a low range transfer case and can do the speed limit I will be happy. If course this is coming from a guy who currently wheels a 60 horsepower Suzuki samurai.... And I can promise my sammy will out 4 wheel any stock version...
I think pictures of the 2 door is enough to convince me it will be capable of tough, tight, technical trails. The wheelbase and tiny nose/tail overhangs says it all. Of course, more flexy is more sexy sooo....
I will concede that it's a million times better than their new discovery. This thing is what the disco should have been... The new defender should have been basic, simple, affordable, easy to work on and fix. I get that it's not as profitable or within the companies direction they want to go...
I definitely joke about the SFA thing, especially now that it gets chairs thrown at me.
My thing is, I'm hoping for a no compromise offroad beast. To me, ifs is a total compromise away from rugged and towards comfort. It tells me Ford is afraid the (relatively) rough ride would turn people...
I like to watch his other videos. He understands car design pretty well. But that's just it. CAR. He is a city boy who doesn't get the offroad thing or trucks.
Gotta get the 4 door, I've got 4 kids. I would really want the 2 door, but the 4 door is a necessity.
I think this thread points out why the 2 door SUV is dying. Many people here like the 2 door better, that's where my heart is. The 4 door just fits my life and family better.
I would much rather see the return of the excursion, based on the f250. I've got 4 kids and my crazy wife is taking about #5. A giant 3rd row SUV that can easily pull a 35 foot rv? With the 6.7 or 7.3? Lifted on 37s? Yes please!
I don't even trust a basic turbo engine fully, adding electric and batteries is a bridge way too far. Give me a basic gas engine please. Simpler the better...
Reminds me of the Suzuki jimny... Another little badass offroader we will never get because of our government's heavy handed regulations
I am convinced a simple and cheap (under 20k) offroad SUV would do gangbusters here if someone was brave enough to try.
We have a thread for wheels. We have one for tire size. How about a thread for tire type/model/brand...
I've got copper stt pro on my current offroader and they are great, also not too expensive. I think that's what I want on the bronco...
They look aggressive and do great in the mud and...
I'm with ya. If there is an option for a solid non removable roof, that's the one I want. And no sun/moon roof. If it has the removable hard shell like the old ones, that's fine but I will never remove it. It will be my hunting rig and it regularly gets below zero and snows where I go.
