The article says it's a render inspired by a mix of the the Troller (which has been rumored anyway) and the 2004 Bronco concept. I think it looks pretty good. Definitely not the worst of the all the possible looks various pitches have offered up.
Check out this rendering from another site. I like this one a lot but still not as much as the render from this site.

Since Ford has already unwrapped the new Ranger ( https://www.caranddriver.com/news/ford-ranger-returns-for-2019-news ), do you think there is a prayer's chance in hell that maybe, just maybe, they might be saving the main stage at the Detroit Auto Show to give us something more tangible on the...
I, frankly, don't care all that much how many doors it has, as long as the body lines are right. I would kill to see one teaser of a rectangular body silhouette or a slogan like "dare to be square".
That sounds kind of cool, actually. Except for hardcore, (crazy/stupid) offroaders. I could it see it now:
computer: "Do not pass"
me: "Nah, I got this"
.......Later, after I break something:
(in my head): "maybe I should have listened"
And if the new one looks pretty close to the renders from this site, I'll be ok with that.... I just meant that as an original Bronco, I'm absolutely in love with that green machine.
The most important thing I want is overbuilt suspension and chassis. I want to be able to beat on it and not worry about it being delicate. I would at least like 33'' tires, and removable doors would make it heaven on earth for me. Of course, it has to be 4x4. I used to be a die-hard V8 guy, but...
Last I heard, an anonymous Ford engineer said the design process was gridlocked AGAIN, so they were going to have to start over for a third attempt. Has anyone heard any progress updates? It would be nice to know if it's moving forward yet or not.
My wife and I will probably start trying for a kid or two in the next few years, and we have two dogs, so I'm really thinking we're going to want an suv. A used Toyota 4Runner TRD might be my most preferred alternative, but I'd look at options like a used 2014 FJ Trail Team Ultimate Edition or...
I'm admittedly a fanboy for the revival of the Bronco. I love bringing back the old nameplates, and the current generation of vehicles is sadly lacking rugged, all-terrain oriented options. I'll curse the powers that be if the new Bronco disappoints, but I will probably have worn out my Ranger...
Shit, I used to take the doors off almost daily, year-round. Personally, I enjoyed hanging a foot out of the door and feeling the wind more than I cared about the sun shining in through the roof. Taking the top down was hit or miss for me. It depended on how motivated I felt, lol.
I never had a Bronco, but I always had the top down and doors off of my Jeep. A couple panels off the roof would be fine with me. What I really care about is the doors. I would be in heaven if they made the doors relatively easy to remove. Wishful thinking, I'm sure.
