Oh nice, I wouldn't have thought of that.

Nothing they've officially said has said "Bronco Sport." It has always been "suppliers have been told" or "insider details" or similar language, in these articles. That can all be replaced with "we're not sure, but our best guess is they're talking about the Bronco Sport."

I still haven't seen an official quote or press release from Ford acknowledging the Bronco Sport, but it's all a moot point anyway. It's gonna happen how and when it's gonna happen - all we can do is wait.

I think the confusion is with the “Sport” designation being confused with the Wrangler. Off-road types are probably familiar with Wrangler trims and at least know the Wrangler Sport is a trim. So they expect Bronco Sport to be a trim like that.... but it’s a different company and a different vehicle line. I still personally think they should call it Bronco II but I assume there’s an apprehension to doing that due to the whole rollover thing.

It is a little curious that Ford would not even mention the sport specifically in their “Future vehicles “ tab next to the Bronco... unless, their unveiling does lump them together in that “Bronco brand “ then I get it.

I’ve seen quite a few people complain about what they’ve done to the Bronco when they see pictures of the Sport.

Ford used sport too. My 96 Bronco Is an XLT Sport. Also the Bronco II was more distinguishable from the Bronco because of the massive size difference. These 2 will be basically the same size compared to the 80s models.

Then the people you talk to aren't representative of the general public.

 

[Corsair]

That’s the general public for you.

That goes against my experience with just about everyone that has talked to me about it. Mostly regular folks, a few auto enthusiasts.


Maybe I've been too hard on the Ford folks, the confusion probably exists because of shit posting like what I found when I created this thread.

Interesting thread to read in Dec 2020...

For those who cannot recognize it, this is sarcasm.

Eric, are you supposed to post your reservation date and number so we can scratch you off the waiting list?

Just kidding... LOL
