First Videos of 2021 Ford Bronco on Rubicon Trail (+ More Pics)

[Administrator]

Can someone confirm or disprove, was the 2-door riding on 33’s or 35’s?

33” tires. Specs of each of the 3 Broncos are in the first post.

My buddy was on the trail with his crew and sent me a few pictures. He also camped near them. He is going to send some videos when he gets back. Here are a few picks until then.

Updated With Specs (from left to right)

4 door with Sasquatch Package has Ford performance beadlock rings.

2 door has 33" BFG AT tires w/ standard wheels and Ford Performance steel modular front bumper.

4 door has manual transmission, optional 33" Goodyear MT with beadlock wheels and Ford Performance beadlock rings.

Here's some photos and vids my friend grabbed as he got super lucky and saw them on the rubicon. I'll try to get some higher quality ones tomorrow from him.

I know people love going off road, but my truck will be doing this in case of an emergency. this looks like fun but it would only be fun in someone else's truck. love the capabilities but will only be used as a get away option.. IJS

what I like seeing here is that they seem to have the door storage bag on that open door with the guy in red, so it seems that you zip it open on the side, slide it on the door, then remove the door and close the bag once the door is off, nice!

Lol..
I guess these modified jeeps that couldnt make it in the same spot must've used open differential.vs the "solid front differential" you mentioned? Go to 29:00 in the video, you see a modified jeep not able to get up the same spot and was winched up. In another video someone here attached, that group of jeeps did make it...
Shows there are a lot more factors that determine your success at a given obstacle than a vehicle.

Thanks for posting! Really puts things into perspective.

Did anyone notice the trail camera? Looks like they copied the new Jeep Gladiator.

Pretty sure the Raptor had a front camera long before the Glad'e'ate'er ever existed.

The stock rigs look like they performed well. It's a badass all arounder, not a dedicated rock crawler. But it can also do the Rubicon - an esoteric trail where trail damange is a given. The complaints here are silly, especially coming from those that would never attempt it.

Respectfully, no major vehicle manufacturer did it first. I first saw a switchable 5-camera setup on BajaTaco's truck 15 years ago. In his writeup, he says someone else did it before him.

They're really punishing these brocs

The Squanch package doesn't look as goofy as I thought.

Good catch - didn't notice that before.

I’m not seeing a big difference between 33s and the Sasquatch 35s.

Here’s what the guy who took the videos said on Instagram. Apparently, they all made it over the obstacle.

I hope you realize it was heavily sarcastic.

actually like that channel. he's really informative and seems to know his stuff. kinda binge watching it lately.

So have i.... Well done production and great footage of trails. And they're always about the cooking and food ????
But I think they try to make some of the crawling a little more challenging and dramatic than it needs to be. I guess that's part of the fun.
