I'm torn on this. The Raptor is very good looking and I think these concept images look good. It just doesn't thrill me like the other concepts that look more like the original small Bronco. I can see where I might get more use out of a larger vehicle and it might be a little more practical...
All those are true.
You would save even more gas by taking the bus, walking or riding a bike. You will also have a ton of floor space on the bus.

Do NOT like.
I don't like the fingers going into the round headlights, don't like the mail slit windows or the boxy fenders. It looks too much like a Heep.

New member here. I've never owned a Bronco but I have owned quite a few Fords.
I really like the 6G concept drawings. I think the original small Bronco design was/is brilliant and I really hope some flavor of that front end is preserved in a new design. I understand there have to be some...
