I can't believe y'all haven't mentioned this one:

Before that, I believe hybrid power trains will be more popular like what the new F-150 Powerboost is and that technology is here now. In 10-15 years, the V8 will be all but a memory.not so sure about that.
In the coming years electrics will start to completely dominate ICE's performance wise.
This will leave a market for "traditional" high powered vehicles that FEEL like traditional vehicles.
If anything , in the future (10-15 years) , all 4 and 6 cylinders will be gone and the only production engines will likely be throaty powerful v8s.
I like the way you think!not so sure about that.

keep in mind those are all pre production vehicles. Much like the trim doesn't have the final finish on it, the features shown could change by production time. It they're still testing vehicles, everything must not be set in stone yet.Though I also noticed that earlier interior spy shots showed models with the smaller screen (indicating a lower model) that had the full complement of dash top mounted switches, whereas the photos from yesterday showed a more optioned model (with the bigger screen), but was missing some buttons on the upper dash - don't know if that's proof of this theory or not, but at minimum, it means that particular offroad features don't appear to be locked to technology features.
Bronco buyers seem to want 1000 combinations and put them all on about 4 models. Something's gotta give.Jeep has freaking 13 "trims" when you go to build & price.
I would hope Bronco is better streamlined than that lol.
I definitely do think that it will differ from the rest of Ford's lineup.
So I was talking with someone from another forum and we were discussing trim levels and option packages, and whether the Bronco would have trim levels (in the usual XLT, Limited, etc vein) or if Badlands, Outer Banks, Big Bend would serve as the trim level names.
We came up with an alternate theory - that there are no traditional trim levels on Bronco - that perhaps they'll just have equipment option groups (your typical 200A, 300A, 401A, etc) that build upon a "base" trim, and then you could have the option of tacking say the Badlands package on any model regardless of how many features you want. My example for this was how FX4 can now be had as an option across the F-150 lineup, it's not a trim in itself (anymore).
My thought was that each package could be geared more toward a different type of offroading - (ex. Badlands = rock crawling oriented, Big Bend = desert geared, etc), so that people could pick their ideal setup without being locked into particular trim levels or having to pay top dollar to get a particular type of offroad setup.
Just speculation right now, but a potential idea.

Then maybe they've seen me wheel in my 69 LOL! Found a puddle once....The outerbanks sticker is a dive sticker.......
On this page it has a swatch with the federal standard color codeWhat on the Filson site makes you think that forest service green is going to be a color? The jacket at the bottom of the page? Just curious, cuz I like a dark green option.
Just guessing.Fighter Jet Grey?
Lucid Red Pearl?
Carbonized Grey Metallic?
Area 51?
Cyber Orange Pearl?
Something Blue?
Oxford White?
Racer Red?
I think there is something to this why put a color swatch?
