"The Bronco soaks up bumps at speed with significantly less drama and the steering is leagues better than the loosey-goosey Jeep's."

My main reason for switching! Plus it's been 20 years since I've personally owned a Ford. My husband never stopped buying them!

Thanks for posting! That's my exact build and color.

Bronco for me was an easy choice. I always wanted a 2door wrangler in theory but never wanted to deal with the on-road "character" they are known for. I'm quite interested in the Gladiator i have ordered to lease until my bronco arrives because I think the longer wheelbase will help stabilize the jeep's manners, but what I really want is a 2door, and I just don't see myself ever being happy with a 2door wrangler daily. I think the 2 door bronco will be a much easier daily.

I bet over on the JL forums they are saying this is a paid for review.

What's ridiculous is the Bronco is just so obviously better on the highway. It is totally indisputable.

Doesn't make the jeep junk, but its simply true

That's not even the best part. Why does no one mention the lack of cup holders? Makes the Bronco so much more streamlined. I never have to fuss over which cupholder to use. Saves me hours a day.

Usually I really like the thoroughness of CNET when they do their full reviews. However this one is just what we already know and should not be called a review. TFL has done a much better job actually reviewing the vehicle. CNET is just a rehash of the specs etc. that we already know. Now, the Chinaman Gulch video was a good review to me

Pretty sure you cannot use the Bronco's ACC in stop-and-go traffic. Is that right?

I thought the same, I'll see if I can get my wife to test that today, if not, I'll try it. I did test that the rear locker will still lock in at triple digit speeds...

The Bronco is this review is the exact one I have on order and am eager awaiting. It was between Area 51, Cactus, or Cyber. Cyber is the winner.

However, my example is equipped with the Lux upgrade package, which swaps out the vinyl for leather.

Stopped reading after that
