“20 Things you didn’t know about the Bronco”.

[Raptor911]

most vehicles are not aluminum. I am surprised Ford went with alum doors and what not. Smart as so what if they take the doors off? who would want to if the doors are 80+ pounds?

I am sure alum raised the price.

That's nothing. Wait until people start trying to drill into their cage to mount pieces and parts of things for The Gram.

Interview with a Ford engineer stated that the exposed cage is boron steel. Super strong, super light. Difficult AF for the common man to drill a hole in it.

Yep. So? The entire body of the F-150 is made out of aluminum. I'm actually surprised they didn't do that here, too.

I wish they would have, I see a future of rusted out floors in the new Bronco.

It's got what plants crave.

Todays cars are not yesterday's cars. Yes, everything will rust eventually but today's cars are better treated and protected from environmental contamination.

If you look at the link below that BroncoHooves posted,
Pretty much the entire body is aluminum, including the front and rear fenders that are removable.

No, the Sasquatch has a 1.2" lift over the base and a 0.6" lift over a regular Badlands.

Well if it only has 1.2" lift it better be cheap. (the lift part, not the rest of the package). I'd be pretty unhappy if I had to pay a bunch of $$ for a 1" lift. I wan't 2-3" with 3 being optimal.

Didn't hear anything I didn't know, but if your wife can't drive a stick, why'd you marry her?

My wife learned to drive in a '76 Toyota Celica. I don't think auto was even an option. I was driving a '71 MACH I when we started datng and was surprised when she could handle the 4 speed with no problem.
Taught my daughter to drive a stick when she was 15 cause I didn't want her depending on any boy to do the driving.
