At the end of the day it's the underpinnings that'll matter to me. With the Bronco and Ranger sharing their platform I bet there will be awesome aftermarket off-road parts for the two vehicles. Because yes, the Bronco and Explorer could end similar in the sense that they'll be RWD platform...
Haha yeah, as the article said, I think it would need some beefier fenders. I would also like to see the rear squared up a bit more for a more 4x4/off-road look.
I've found yet another concept here: https://www.fordf150blog.com/2021-ford-bronco-could-it-look-like-this/
It's an interesting idea, basing it on that new Ranger concept that's been making the rounds.
