Ford Broncos serve as pace cars in Detroit Thanksgiving Day Parade

[sasquatchrox]

Happy Thanksgiving friends!

While lounging in bed this Thanksgiving morning with the TV tuned to the Detroit Thanksgiving day parade (albeit the slim fast version of a parade).... Bronco's!!!

Apologies for the poor quality of the pics but it made me thankful for my future awesome truck!

Stay safe all and enjoy the day!

Tires look on the small side on the 4 door badlands. Assuming they are the 33's and not sasquatched?

Thanks for sharing OP!

Is the rumor true that these flags preview the MY22 INTERIOR colors???

...Most cities are abiding by the CDC,and not having large gatherings...(With 260k Americans dead,and thousands more dying everyday,maybe a virtual parade isn't a bad idea )..There is a Detroit in just about every state...so for the ones who think Detroit is unique..it really isn't..

Man those roof rails probably put it over weight. Surprised it didn't roll over!

Broncos look great. As for the parade, it looks alot better than any non covid parade to go through my hometown Springfield Ohio. So I think they are doing alright.

Correct, the 4 door is not squatched. Those are the 33” MTs on the optional Badlands wheels.

Looking good! I’ve been back and forth between Squatch and the optional 33’s on my 4dr BL but after seeing these pics and the video I’m definitely leaning toward Squatch. Maybe it’s just me but the 33’s look a bit too small here for the 4dr

I’ve been in same boat and have decided this week to squatch.

The squatch stance is definitely better and if I bought 5 35/315 wheels id be at $1500 plus the optional wheels at $995 its a wash. And we don’t know for sure if the optional wheels will rub due to positive backspacing if you add 35s/315s - so I likely would also have to buy new wheels. Plus the wider flares are growing on me and coming from factory that way may minimize issues later.

Just was flipping channels and appears Ford is sponsoring the Detroit Thanksgiving Day parade and they had 3 Broncos (1 is the sport) as Pace Cars at the front of the Parade. Pics and video below.

- 2 Door Squatched Cyber Orange Badlands with MIC top
- 4 Door Area 51 Badlands with optional wheels and soft top
- Rapid Red Bronco Sport

Very well stated. This parade went forward to keep workers employed and to give hundreds of thousands of kids something. For some of kids, this was a in person tradition they were part of since they were tiny. So nice that the sponsors still went through with it, even though the benefit to them was much less this year.

It is like someone else mocking your NFL team for not having enough fans in the stands now.

Anyone else concerned with the proportions of the 4door? Look at the first picture and look at the difference in hood length/depth from the 2d to the 4dr.

I had been planning on getting a 4door for practicality reasons, but the 2door looks so much better here.

also why does the 4door look like it’s leaning forward?
