I think everyone is confusing the reference between the 'whole enchilada' and the mexican restaurant. I'm assuming they will reveal the entire Bronco product line at that time? AKA whole enchilada...

Sorry y'all, I am very busy at the moment so I don't really have the time for a good render. This is just so that you get the idea... I did this because of the new leak on headlights incase you missed it. Tell me what you think and possibly I will redo this.

I'd like to see the central bar a little more pronounced like a narrower version of the Bronco R's, but overall it looks good.

The proportions of the fascia seem pretty reasonable. I suspect there would probably be a ring of 1-1.5" trim that could be chrome/body-color/black-on-black-on-black around the grille, and probably the headlights.

What's "everything?" I will not be surprised at all if it comes out IFS, but I am curious what makes you so confident?
Production bronco will be based on next generation ranger frame according to Ford. That being said, ranger is IFS. Also, Bronco R was IFS (yes I know this was a one off). On a side note, I don't understand why ford used an F150 frame for the bronco R. What were they actually trying to prove? I mean, they used a 2.7 ecoboost f150 with a bronco body... doesn't really prove anything about strength of bronco.

The Troller is also on the same frame, but is SFA.

Didn't know that. Trust me I would prefer SFA, still don't think it's likely. I hope I'm wrong.

I'm still not convinced the R was on an F150 chassis. Ford directly said:

"The race prototype is built on a modified Ford T6 architecture that will provide the base for the production model"

I am very skeptical that they would straight up lie like that (if they had said 'a body on frame architecture' or something more vague that would be different), and the only evidence we have to the contrary is some guy on a forum who says he saw it in a shop.

I think the most likely answer is that the T6 is basically a narrowed F150 frame, so a widened T6 frame would look the same, or even be the same, as an F150 frame.

That or the T6 uses the same basic design as the F150 frame, but maybe smaller rails, narrower etc. so you could say that the F150 frame is a modified T6 frame, just larger dimensions?
