I'm going to regret this in the morning...
So assumption is wheelbase is the same. Correct me if I'm wrong, because the scale looks off to me. But that could be the Porter goggles.
I agree, but the Bronco is also more cab forward.
Okay, this could probably be better, but it's been a long day and I'm on my third Great Lakes Edmund Fitzgerald Porter...
Edit... Last night I adjusted the JL angle, deleted the previous version, then never updated.
Should have switched to...
That's what I was thinking, but I'll admit the tread patterns look like a match.
Based on the title: "An all-new off-road-capable Bronco calls for a new off-road capable tire."
Does that mean a new size or possibly a renamed Wrangler tire... Goodyear Bronco?
Personally I like the idea of a BF...
I knew that, I just find that continuous cowl and mirror arms look interesting.
With the camo on, it typically covered up the cowl right up to the base of the windshield. This gave the illusion of a body colored cowl, or at least integrated into the body with the mirrors on separate arms...
LOL. That comment makes me think of the Finnish comedian ISMO...
If you're not familiar with him, look up ISMO on YouTube.
... or just check out the link:
I think it is in the same spot as well.
One thing I noticed on the aerial photo was the continuous cowl/mirror arc that wraps around the base of the windshield. With the camo, what appears to be on the mirror arm could actually be on the cowl of most vehicles and vise verse... based on...
My priorities are:
1) 2 door vehicle w/ capable 4x4 and manual transmission (no rock climbing required)
2) Can't be stripped down... needs bells and whistles
3) No Fiat
I think this leaves me with a Taco or (hopefully) a Bronco.
Bronco takes it with better fuel efficiency (hopefully) and...
I always liked the fenders on Jeeps and was originally hoping for Troller T4 styling on the Bronco. That is until I saw the recent Jeep offset crash tests. Suddenly the Bronco design makes a lot more sense.
I never really understood the business case for the Edge.
To me it was supposed to be the sporty SUV targeted at DINK's. Until the ST was introduced, it never delivered. Without that if filled a small gap between Escape and Explorer.
While the Bronco is not an Edge replacement, the larger...
I always liked the functionality of the Avalanche... just hated the original looks (got better towards the end) and that it was a Chevy.
But mostly I didn't like that they ripped off one of my favorite Ford concept trucks, the 1996 Adrenalin concept...
I get that. They've had a number of great celebrity voiceovers and spokesmen, Mike Rowe, Bryan Cranston, even Dwayne Johnson did Ford Service ads.
I just liked the third paragraph of the article I posted. The script called for a Jeep and Dwayne recommended they make it a Bronco because he...
