I dig it.
Tempted to order a 2 door / 2.7L EB. Not sure of a 10 speed auto or 7 speed manual yet. Gotta think on that. |

Front locker. I'll eat my humble pie. I didn't think they would beef up the front end enough to add one.

Prices are on the website, first edition (3500 units) starts at 59 and is about a $10k premium over the next best equipped model. Pricing seems good imo. I’m on the Canadian site trying to reserve a wild track version (no first edition up here) but the website is ultra slow. |

The first is that Ford is making all of the mechanical off road goodies available on every trim. The second is the availability of the 2.7L EB on every trim. Locking the goodies to the Rubicon trim and only offering more power on a special Rubi trim that’s priced like a Hellcat ain’t going to cut it. Jeep needs to whip out the 5.7L Hemi for the normal trims and re-think their trim structure. |

Trying to reserve a Black Diamond. I want the Badlands but by the time the Sasquatch package and the 2.7 is added it would probably be way too much for me without resorting to ramen.

I think it's pretty cool as a 4runner owner. About what I expected.
Won't be trading for one, but the fact it has all those goodies as standard and you can order it from the factory with hundreds of aftermarket items like light bars, roof racks, etc. is pretty sweet. I think the two door is a particularly excellent homage to the original. |

I'd never buy another Chrysler product again and I'm not alone in that. My second gen Ram was the last good Dodge I owned and that's only because the only part of the drivetrain Chrysler made was the 5.9 which had been in production since before I was born. The Challenger was a nightmare and the GFs Cherokee is a disaster as well.  |

I’m pretty letdown on the towing capacity and engine options. I was looking forward to buying a new Bronco to replace my 5.0 F-150 when it finally gives up, but with the current offerings, it can’t tow my boat. 3500lbs towing is very underwhelming.
Maybe they’ll offer a V8 or a bigger EB option later on. |

Maybe they’ll offer a V8 or a bigger EB option later on. The engine isn't even close to being the limit on towing. The Ranger can tow 7,500 lbs with the 2.3 and the F-150 can tow 9,000 lbs with the 2.7. The 3,500 lbs towing limit has everything to do with the wheelbase, suspension, and stability of the platform. There's a rumor that the Bronco "brand" will get a pickup at some point to split the difference between the Bronco and Ranger and to compete against the Gladiator, but such a thing would probably take years to appear. |
