To me the fact that they’re even trying to do the rubicon is all I need to see. As has been discussed ad nauseum, the wrangler will be better in the rocks just due to the SFA. But If Bronco can at least keep up that’s all I need to see.

The rubicon is probably a harder trail than 95% of Bronco owners will ever attempt.
A stock Rubicon never makes that climb. Period.

There are no vinyl or leather seats with cloth inserts.
These are Badlands models as the grill shows.
Badlands only have a choice of solid vinyl or leather seats. There are no ventilation holes and no cloth inserts in either the vinyl or leather seats.
Only the Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks and Wildtrak have the option to get solid cloth seats.

No Ventilation or Cloth Inserts = Swamp Rash

Did anyone else notice not even the test driver likes the UN-ventilated Bronco seats as it looks like they put a mesh type seat cover on?

When they get Texas or Florida for humidity and heat testing, they will not be happy campers.

I have every intention of making old skool plaid seat covers. I want vinyl for ease of cleaning but they’ll be freezing in the winter and slippery in the summer

Wonder if Bestop is building the soft tops for Ford. Looks just like the Supertop Ultra they make for Jeeps.

I’m not too familiar with all the obstacles on this trail. Is that true? To me it looked like this Bronco could have made it with a little more grip on the stone and aired down tires. I was happy with the articulation we saw in the video. I’m excited for the rig!!

From someone who has done tier fair share of the Rubicon and rock crawling in general, WTH is with not airing down the tires! From the photo's and video, those tires are way too inflated!

But thumbs up, they completed it!

Agreed,been over that section many times, air down and they make it.

And I have witnessed stock Rubicon Jeeps make it aired down with good spotters. Its a challenge, but it has been done
