How about a Canyon Red?
It looks good on this Mustang, and I had an '86 Cougar that was Canyon Red and it was a deep, rich almost Candy Apple...
Canyon Red with a White Hard Top...
Shirley, you must be joking!
FoMoCo... Ya done GOOD!
Can you say: "Jeep Wrangler Fighter!" ?
I knew you could.
Safari Time...
Next... hard top white roof...?
This thing is off the chain!
Boom-Shocka-Locka!
...
Ha-Ha!
Trust me.
I'm just a professional truck driver, but I did see the raw sheet metal shell. It was a quick 5 minute walk-around with an engineer and hilo driver watching my every move. I had to talk and walk at the same time, which limited my ability to zero in on details. My mind was...
...
I think that your latest rendering is pretty close to what I saw as a raw metal shell on the loading dock.
The uptick in the side panel near the mirror should be the same, and as visible, as the rear uptick behind the door.
...
The hood, for the most part, does not have any rise to it, but...
So....
I saw the 2021 Ford Bronco raw sheet metal 4-door shell sometime back in January.
A couple of things that I got kinda right:
1. Big round wheel wells that have stand-alone built-in flares, so no real need for any plastic wheel flare enhancements, unless various trim levels offer them in...
Now they've got me trying to convince myself.
I just checked the specs on a 1996 Bronco, and it is 183.6" in length. Let's call it 184".
That's only 8" less than the 192" (16') that I stepped off.
If while I was looking at the raw metal shell, someone had asked me:
"Is this vehicle longer or...
So, I just checked the specs on a 2019 Jeep Wrangler 4-door Rubicon...
It has a 118" wheel base.
It is 188" in length. That's 21" shorter than my 2019 F-150 Reg Cab with a 6.5' box which is 209".
So...
Why can't the raw metal shell of the Bronco be 188" just like the Jeep 4-door?
Then add 12"...
I wouldn't be to sure about that. Look at the height difference of the two vehicles. That doesn't add up. The Bronco will not be that much taller than the Baby Bronco, which means that we're looking at a situation where the Bronco needs to be placed farther into the background, further away...
Just wondering...
The pic of the 4-door mule doesn't seem to match up with the 4-door prototype when looking at the wheel base length.
Is there a technical process that was done to verify that those two wheel bases are close to identical?
To my eye, the driver seems closer to the rear wheels...
Nope.
I just measured my 2019 Ford F-150 Regular Cab with a 6.5' Box - with my casual shoes on which are definitely shorter than my Red Wing work boots, and I hit the 17.5' mark exactly, which is how long my truck is: 209" or 17.4'.
I got it right.
And yes, if the above Ranger is 17.5' long...
I'm no engineer, but I do measure things with my boots one foot in front of the other on a regular basis, by either marching off the axle length distance from the rear of a 53' trailer, or sometimes by using the one foot in front of the other method in order to find the 10' that I need. I know...
The wheel wells were surprisingly pushed VERY near to the front and rear bumpers.
There was MINIMAL OVERHANG between the wheel wells and the bumpers. It was almost SHOCKING.
The vehicle I saw didn't have bumpers or fascia, but it was clearly evident that there was VERY LITTLE sheet metal as an...
I saw the 2021 Bronco. The hood tells the story. It's the Baja Bronco hood. This vehicle was 16' long without bumpers/fascia or the spare tire. It was as long and wide as my 2019 Ford F-150 Regular Cab, with a 6.5' Box. This was a large vehicle. I just traded in a 2006 Ford Escape that I...
