[Techun]

Remember when the bronco was going to come with trail maps?

It's only been like 3 years, I bet it's coming soon!

5,000 lb towing is nice, but if they still suck at steering I don't think I would be towing much

And all Jeeps will be hybrid or fully electric by the end of 2025

They just mean there will be a model in every lineup that will be hybrid or electric.

I still prefer the look of the Bronco 2-door over the Jeep. Although, I do like the Jeep 392, but not enough to change my decision.

That's where I'm at, hence the reason I have a 2 door Bronco in the garage, and sold my 4 door JL to Carvana.

Jeep fanatics should thank Ford for kicking stellantis in the rear and upgrading their Jeep lineup.

What I am seeing is Jeep taking cues from Ford, but not really 'innovating' anything. I predict Ford will figure something else out, then 2 years later, Jeep will introduce something similar.

Still waiting on em to figure out two doors and hard tops.

Will be an interesting to do comparisons once their B&P gets posted for content and price. Not looking to switch but Jeep has had me test drive on more than one occasion and hasn't snagged me (yet).

Say what you want but the sky touch top sets apart from everything. I'd love to have one on a Bronco.

But all of the changes are a direct response to the Bronco.

Maybe maybe not.

Agreed. My wife has arthritis but loves the open air from a soft top. The Sky One Touch will move us to be a Bronco + Wrangler couple.

Maybe maybe not.

Bigger screen? Yup.
More tow capacity? Yup.
Airbags? Yup.
And so on.

Maybe maybe not.

Look at all these features that either now meet or exceed my direct competitor but totally not related. Lol

The JK got updated because Fiat said it was trash when they came in. The JK was also the last of the FCA vehicles to get the updated 3.6, and didn’t even get the updated trans and uconnect until the JL.

The 2017 JK was leaps and pounds behind the rest of the lineup as far as tech, mechanically, and amenities. They didn’t care because people still bought them.

The Willys finally gets a rear locker! That’s a W. The lineup desperately needs the 3.0 Hurricane though. Kinda shocked it doesn’t have that option yet.

pretty significant upgrade for a mid cycle refresh.

floating axle and 12.3" screen is pretty nice!

I havent read the comments but my 2 cents just by looking at the specs. This is already better than my Black Diamond Bronco. Especially since it can do 5k towing which is the sweet spot for me. With the new 4xe you can also now charge accessories as I understand it. Big win for Jeep and good to have competition.

Give me the Magneto and im all in on trading my Bronco.

I seem to get them as rentals frequently. After driving them for a day or 2 as a rental I'm always happy to give the keys back to the rental company.

Bigger screen? Yup.

Airbags? Yup.
And so on.

My 07 had a bigger screen than my 97
My 2016 f150 had a bigger screen than my 07.

I'm not saying the bronco isn't pushing them a little bit but it was going to change with or without the bronco. And I wasn't involved in any of the jeep meetings so I can't say
