Bronco Family Vid is WEAK. Seriously showing all that cool footage and then a padded up prototype. Looks like a rolling garbage bag. Just wait a week and WOW us.. instead of splicing in spyproof vids of "something" rolling up a creek.
Sorry did we watch the same video?

Should have just done the first part and ended with the split image of the old bronco and new bronco front view. Be the bridge commercial.

The Bronco page has been updated on Ford's website. It lists the bronco being powered by, "race-tested Ecoboost turbocharged engines." That basically confirms the 2.3 and 2.7/3.0 being offered
bronco family! Not just one bronco. Including the 1.5 and 2.0 ecoboosts in the sport.
but I agree there will be a v6

WOW! that's a busy video. cant wait! still hoping for the 2.7 V6
All of the exhaust sounds were of a V6, but worryingly, every shift they provided sound of was unquestioningly the automatic. If you're trying to inspire drama, manual shifts sound much more crisp and exciting - the lazy way that revs bwaaaaa down to the next gear with an automatic is uninspiring.

I'll be pretty disappointed if the manual is 4cyl-only.

This video would have been 10x more amazing if Sam Elliot did the voice over.
I wonder if Dodge has him in some sort of exclusivity contract. :ROFLMAO:

Ford tends to be pretty good about offering manuals for their performance vehicles (GT500 and GT are the exceptions).

Well, I was 100% convinced there would be no manual at all until news of the 7 speed broke, so I'd be more than happy to be wrong again. I suppose it's possible they'd decide to develop two different transmission casings to attach the same trans to two different engines, but I'm skeptical. I wouldn't be surprised to see the 4cyl manual with 2H/4H/4L only, with the V6 as auto only and 4A also auto only.

“You need a Bronco.”
Yes I fucking do!!

Thread TLDR
-this sucks
-this is amazing
How can you be mad? My first forum post on this thing (on another forum) was back in 2016. The fact that we are 1 week away from the reveal... this week is gonna go by in 2 seconds flat. Enjoy the ride!
