No such thing happened. Ford did not require their approval for the review content, words or opinions.

And press embargoes are par for the course when it comes to first reviews for a newly launched vehicle (not just by Ford).
How do you know that forsure though? Genuine question. They’re all done in Austin at the off rodeo?

no 0-60 test! what's the point of the 'review'?
I’ve been skimming all of the reviews and noticed that also. Almost like they weren’t allowed???? I’ve read tons and tons of reviews and almost all of them have a 0-60 times.

Because no media outlet would sign up for the embargo if they couldn’t provide an honest review. Car & Driver has enough influence that they’d be noticed if they DIDNT have a review, at which point they’d publish Ford wanted editing/review rights - pretty much sabotaging everyone else’s review.

I read 2, seems to be loved. Slightly better version than the Wrangler especially on road and at speed. Perfect.

*Checks reservation: perfect, only 6 more year’s.

I only caught this: The power is there—V-6 variants should sprint to 60 mph in the mid- to high five-second range

Jalopnik seemed the least biased and most honest.

The Jalopnik review is great. In that Review there is an embedded video of a ride along with Fred Williams where they demonstrate the start-in-gear feature. I hadn't seen that yet anywhere else.

In the TFL artical I believe they tried the standard 2.3 0-60 in the heat. 8.75 or something around there....

One of the moderators said I got the same thing in the two-door he drove. Fourwheelers review is in-depth with a lot of technical specs it’s a real good one. I’ll wait for more reviews once they get Broncos off the ranch in Austin.
