I am 6'6 200lbs. One of our finance managers is 6'5 and 270 and fit comfortably as well.
Well I am not sure that I'm qualified yet. I drive a 2003 Mustang daily, so all of these are a step up. haha. I think it would be comparable to a Ranger, but with much nicer interior amenities. Not as smooth as an Explorer to be expected, but the interior quality is better.
The front independent suspension is a huge improvement for on road driving versus a Wrangler.
I'd say it slots between the Ranger and Explorer with ride comfort, as nice as either interior fit/finish and quality, but there is more road noise than a Explorer because of the upright windshield and "block" like shape.

I have a 48 inch chest and have sat in a new Bronco and had no problem. Iām 6ā3 and 270 lbs. and it was comfortable vertical and horizontal.
Living 15 miles away from Granger, I was able to swing by and see the Broncos. The FE was somewhat tucked away awaiting its new owner. The Red WT was in their shop getting ready to go on a lift. It was a short visit but worthwhile. Zach was busy talking to someone else so I didnāt bother him.
I was able to get a good look at them.
My initial reactions in no order of importance.
1) lightning blue is stunning.
2) The Sasquatch package is awesome. The tires are huge (bigger than I expected).
3) the fender flares are ok. I will switch to aftermarket wheels with a more aggressive offset and order non squatch flares for a more aggressive stance.
4) MIC top looked good and darker than in pictures. Blends in with the B pillar enough not to look cheesy.
5) Interior was nicer than expected. I didnāt mind the dash materials, loved the 12inch screen.
6) 2 door rear cargo area is small.
7) the 4dr proportions looked better in person. It absolutely needs the squatch package IMO to help the look.

The OB was headed to Ames Ford, in Ames, Iowa. A demo unit as well.
Can you check the hard top quality for us and let us know if thereās any imperfections there are a lot of Broncos at map with bad tops waiting for new tops before they shipWe'll get more pictures up on our website, but we received our first shipment of Broncos. I've put 30 miles on the Mannequin unit.
- The 2.7 is way more power than you need. Power everywhere!
- The interior impressed me greatly.
- I'm 6'6 and I have plenty of room.
- Rides quieter and smoother than a Wrangler. This is not a luxury car, but about as nice as you can get with the off-road capabilities.
Feel free if you are local to us to stop out and drive the Mannequin Wildtrak starting on Monday.
2 down, 1000+ to go.

Have you considered getting a soft top now and getting a hard top later?

Am I the only one annoyed by the term "mannequin" to refer to a dealer demo? So much douchery surrounding the Bronco world and it just started.
āMannequinā as a term for dealer demos is in no way related to the Bronco in particular
