I had just about written the Bronco off as just another SUV but this gives me hope that Ford might not screw this up and actually give us a Bronco that holds true to the original DNA. I would definitely buy one if it comes out looking like this!
Certainly the 1980 - 1996 Bronco had IFS but as Raj indicated in his remarks, the full-size Bronco generation can tie its lineage to the current Expedition. Demand for that size SUV is currently filled by the Expedition so no need to recreate that with the new Bronco. The Bronco II filled the...
Certainly offering a solid axle conversion through Ford Performance could be a viable option if it would apply to both the Bronco and Ranger platforms, that broadens the appeal and justifies the development cost although I would believe that far fewer Ranger owners would utilize such a...
Certainly an option and a viable idea. However, to keep development costs down, it would seem to make more sense to have the Bronco come with a solid axle from the factory.

If Ford cannot build a vehicle worthy of the nameplate, the Bronco legacy and offer a truly exceptional OFF ROAD vehicle to compete head to head with...
Agree Bob, it will price a lot of people out of the market at least initially but if you are patient, you can get one at sticker or less. It took me nearly two years to obtain a GT350 at sticker but I finally managed it on a 2017 about 6 months ago. I love my GT350 but I refuse to pay...
Agree, if Ford makes it look like the rendering, the demand will outstrip capacity at least for the first model year or two. However, since I can only afford one, color will be the biggest decision I would have to make :D
If the Bronco is nothing more than a re-badged Everest it will be a non-starter for me. Really hoping for something more aligned to the original. The Everest looks like a Toyota
I agree on the vehicle size and removable top as "must have's" for the new Bronco. While I would love to see a V8 option, I do not see it happening in anything but a Raptor version and maybe not even then. Let's face it, Ford has embraced the small displacement turbo movement in a big way...
