Bronco on-road handling ?

[Theherofails]

I did the obligatory searches, and also checked around on YouTube.

With that said.. has anyone seen any articles or videos about how the Bronco handles on road? I am surprised by the lack of interest on how this thing will do as a daily driver by the big names already doing “reviews”. Seeing as how a vast majority will do minimal to moderate off-roading..

I would’ve expected at least an obligatory ride along video from Ford focusing on the on road performance by now..

Forgive me if I missed the answer from previous posts.

From our ride along at Super Cel, the driver said it’s pretty awesome... as a passenger it was very comfortable. Sorry, but that’s all I have.

Good questions man! I am eagerly waiting for some info for on road drivability as well.

There are a few videos from Super Celebration East that have some on road footage and commentary.

Had the same question as i plan to drive the **** out of it. Cabin noise was a big curiosity for me as well. BN reported around 70 decibel level in the cabin at highway speeds.

I expect my Wildtrak to be as terrible on-road as my 2020 Raptor. With such a focus on off-road performance that's no surprise.

IS the Raptor fairly bad on road?

I drive a 2021 Ranger Tremor as my daily right now with the Fox 2.0 suspension setup and its comfortable. Perhaps a little bouncy at times though..

just by virtue of having IFS alone, I can guarantee it will be MUCH better than any trim of the Wrangler

Raptor on road manners is AWESOME and the bronco suspension is based on the raptor suspension. Don't worry.

I had a ‘17 and a ‘20 Raptor as my daily driver and I never had any complaints beyond having to fill a 36 gallon tank.

We are ordering something that none of us have driven. Even those people that have ridden in one didn't get to drive it. Logic is telling me to 99 my reservation, but screw it. I'm all in.

The guys I talked to at one of the events here said it was great

Yes Raptor handling is terrible, but comfort is ok. 2 different things.
Soft suspension, squishy tire sidewalls, and solid axle will do that.

With the IFS I would expect he Bronco with no aftermarket mods, or a squatch package would drive much like an Explorer on the road. I've never driven a vehicle with them big as$ tires, so I can't comment there. I drive a Jeep Wrangler now, and I expect the drive of the Bronco to be a marked improvement. The Jeep isn't bad, but by virtue of the SFA and pitman arm set up it's different for sure.

what? You are the 1st person to say this. Are you comparing a 5700 pound truck to a porsche?

I have owned a gen1 and gen2 raptor and for a large trucks it is very comfortable on road.

OP .. don't listen to this guy unless you are comparing it to a porsche.

LOL
