I just posted these photos in another thread but I’ll post them here as well..Nothing like wrestling with whether the Bronco best fits my needs, and then see these two are on the lot. Fighting the urge to go see them, as it may mean I buy one!
Keep telling myself, unless something changes, Bronco should be here by end of July, unless I get a delay email.
Anyone look at the Ranger Tremors in person?
I own a black Tremor Lariat with performance tuning. I’ve also been able to spend a little time with the Bronco. I can’t speak for how the bronco drives, but the Tremor is amazing both on and off road. Absolutely love the Fox suspension setup. Plenty of power with the 2.3L.
The Bronco and Ranger tremor are VERY close in a lot of ways. Tons of shared components in and out. The Bronco is available with front locker where the Ranger has a limited slip differential of sorts in the front but only when using crawl Control. Both have rear lockers.
If you like trucks, the Ranger Tremor is a fun one to own. More sporty and nimble than the F150. Able to turn sharply on trails still, like a wrangler. The stock Ranger has a terrible suspension setup, but the Fox suspension upgrade with the new leaf springs in the rear make for a completely different ride. Very smooth, yet firm.
Keep in mind that Bronco is based on the Ranger, not the F150. The big take away there is the width of the vehicle. Both are obviously more narrow when compared to F150. It’s a natural transition going from Tremor to Bronco.
I so far have two complaints:
1) brakes are spongy. Typical Ford.
2) infotainment is a little dated, but works quickly and apple carplay makes it mostly a moot point.
The crawl control (also on bronco) is AMAZING. It’ll walk you right over very large obstacles without breaking a sweat.
