i am not too sure about that. ford has continued to carry the XL (base) line of trucks through out it's product line. the inexpensive mule of the line will probably be a bit more popular once these vehicles hit the dealerships.

This is apples and oranges though. The XL F-series is usually just for work trucks. I can't think of any company ordering a commercial fleet of Broncos for any reason. I'm not saying the base Bronco will be around in its current form forever but just asserting that it's a poor comparison.

the base is the entry level, whether you call it a base, an xl, an "s" or whatever. the lowest optioned vehicle is going to be the base model.. the old v6 mustangs used to be called the base model. semantics aside, there is always going to be a base, if thelowest trim level is the eddie bauer, it is the base model.

Border Patrol could order them? Ramchargers and Broncos and Suburbans were a main stay back in the day!!

I went through a fast food drive up once, ordered a small drink, they said they don't have small just medium and large. Same idea, the most basic is base and the smallest is small.

it will probably be like most gas stations... regular (base) mid grade (xlt), and premium (eddie bauer)... or similar... you can call a base anything, but the lowest equipped will always be the base model, whether it is an XL (ford truck) or "s" wrangler.... you will always start from the bottom (base) and move your way up... and yes i said eddie bauer in case ford might be have forgotten green is a color which would look great on these vehicles...

I'm sure they'll always call their lowest trim "base", but the interesting question is what will that mean in terms of price and options. For '21 I feel like base is an absolute steal in these terms relative to any other trims. I played around with B&P a LOT during the wait, and it seems like ordering the base model is like an instant $2-10k discount over similarly optioned higher trims.

I mean, compare the 2-door BD 2.7 Sas to a Base 2.7 Sas. $7k difference! For what? Steel bumper ($825), MGV seats, a few color options, and the privilege of having the option to pay another $1.5k for mid. Are those seats really worth $6k+ relative to cloth? I actually prefer the cloth!

Base will always be around, but I'm not sure if the sweetheart deal will be.
