I'm just saying.
Didn't see this at the top of the new threads so I'm assuming it hasn't been shared yet...
EDIT: Adding "The Escalator"
That is all.

Just finished watching. That was amazing. Overhead shots really give it more power.
That crawler gear transforms this rig into a straight tractor.
Diggin the tank vibes as it walks up the walls.

Man that 2.3 7mt powered Bronco is a beast. The crawler gear is no joke
Just finished watching the videos myself - this is very impressive. What was just amazing was the Escalator video in the 2nd half where the guy literally backed all the way up escalator part time on 3 wheels.
Damn.
I'd like to point out one thing I haven't seen discussed relative to this durability testing itself: the heat.
Today (8/10) it was 104 deg F in Moab. HOT AF!
It's not coincidence they're doing this in Moab now on some of the hottest days of the year. Heat wreaks havoc on cooling systems (and everything else) while wheeling. I've experienced this in Moab myself...

Looks like this one lost a rock slider and they threw on a spare meant for a two door. Maybe this prototype just never had them in the first place and these are the parts they had on hand? I hope they didn't actually break one.

Impressive! Is that dark skidmark on that rocky pass from all the vehicles crawling up?
And I wonder what trims of bronco can pull off the same crawl.

Is it the 2 door Bronco in these videos 4 cylinder, MT and 33’s?

It's been a pleasure to watch the Bronco take on the classic trails. To quote a classic movie clip......
I came here to chew bubble gum and kick a$$, and I'm all out of bubble gum.
