My build with the exception of OWL tires.
I'll also go with the Capable front bumper.
Also Go Rhino D1 Dominator RB's
I'm saving my weekly smoking money, 1 pack a day, I quit, I'll probably have enough to pay for the beast before I get it.
My Bronco.webp
And live long enough to see it. Congrats on quitting.

I think there's a big difference in the base suspension and the Badlands, Wildtrak and FE suspension.
Of course, but OP asked about 2 door vs. 4 door. I would assume he wants to compare 2DR base vs. 4DR base or 2DR Sasquatch vs. 4DR Sasquatch in which case the 4 door will always be slightly less choppy.

FACT = Many folks think 2 door looks better. And many people think the 4 door looks better. Both are correct, depending who you are :)
That's true. The 2dr crowd is just a bit more correct.

Actually, both are 50.000000% correct which makes this a true and legitimate stalemate!

He's not going fast enough. I have three reasons to get a 2dr rather than a 4dr. One is the cool nostalgia of the 2dr look. Another is the better ground clearance and breakover angle of the shorter wheelbase, better for the wheeling that I will do. And last the 2dr is within .5" of the XJ's that I've driven, wheeled and raced for many years.

I’d like to see a survey of the public on that…a Sasquatched 4 door with the top and doors off is the best looking new Bronco…by a wide margin. Not even close. Hardly arguable.

2 doors going to be more ruff of ride compared to 4 door because of the shorter wheelbase don’t care what anyone says that’s how it is. I wanted a 2 door cause they look better but 4 doors more practical and better long term.

Your totally right here. Put big tires on it. Take the roof and doors off. Just like the photo shoot fantasy shots.

Reality is overly small wheels and tires. Crushed and saggy rag top. Doors on, stretched limo look. Yuck.

The public is trying to justify their decision. The professional journalist's have spoken.

Car and Driver:
"While the two-door packs incredible visual wallop, the four-door mutes those spot-on proportions with its additional 15.7 inches of wheelbase and overall length. And this flamboyant box simply doesn't look right unless it's wearing one of the more aggressive tire packages".
CARBUZZ:
"We still prefer the iconic styling and tight proportions on the two-door model, but the four-door looks far from wonky".
MotorTrend:
"The weakest part of the 2021 Bronco four-door's design is at the base of the C-pillar, where many surfaces and forms collide. It all looks bunched up. It's not horrible, but there's a black plastic triangle just at the trailing edge of the rear window that looks tacked on and cheaper than the rest of the truck."
