Haha don't worry my opinion is worth exactly what you paid for it!
You’re not wrong, It’s totally a soft-roader. I try to take it off the beaten path as much as possible.

No more Broncos until they build all of the orders they have. The over hang on this thing would kill you on the trails.

Depends on what all you want to do. That optional air-ride system limits how high you can lift the truck. They are heavy pigs compared to the F150.

PS Buy my Expy 😂
My 2003 (I think) had the air ride rear. God what a royal POS. I ripped it out and put in a coil spring conversion when the damn bags failed.

Coil rear end was NICE! Much, much stiffer, and really improved handling around a turn.

And whoever thought rubber bag suspension was a good idea? I'd like a few minutes in a dark alley with him. Same as the moron who designed the plastic gears in the blend doors and then decided the best location to install them was behind the high explosives in the dash.

Remember when someone posted a picture of the everest and said it was rumored to be the new Bronco. I was simultaneously skeptical and heart broke all at the same time. There was no way Ford was gonna screw it up that kind of way. Lots of other ways, but not that way.
I was so sure it would be such a botch job that I wouldn't even let myself get interested until I finally saw that first leak of the black one. All the renders were hideous.

No, that's an Expedition, not a Bronco. Honestly, I don't call a 4-door "Bronco" a Bronco. It is much too stable and not nearly as capable.

It would still only have two cup holders unless you opted for the leather interior.

Somehow Ford would figure that the two under seat HVAC vents would be enough for all the rear passengers.

Finally, it would only have a 16 gallon fuel tank because of the lost space for the 3rd row footwell.

It would make sense. Consider stretch the wheelbase and you fain two possible new versions, a 7 passenger suv and a 5 passenger pickup Gladiator style . Ineos has a Grenadier pickup in the works. Btw
This is the correct answer. If the Gladiator was a 4xE, I actually would have considered walking on my Bronco order. My wife and daughter have a CUV and SUV. I have grown very attached to the pick up truck. I kept the Silverado when I picked up my Bronco. A Bronco pick up with sky active top and a 7000lb tow rating would be my dream ride.

Any third row SUV needs to be on a full size truck frame. Period. Craning a third row into the back of a 4Runner, Explorer, or Honda pilot does nothing but create an uncomfortable ride for the people who jam into the back, not to mention it destroys cargo space.
Proper third row vehicles are Expeditions, Suburbans, and maybe something like the Sequoia.

Now, if they would only deliver it before I get put in a home!
Me too. I’m getting closer to Shady Pines every day.
