James May ROASTS 2D Stropp Bronco

Sadly, you are most likely correct. However, I do hope that some get used as they were meant to be used.

Except Land Rovers ride better than Broncos ever will.

Very old designs

Except that’s what they’re more likely to be used for than other less expensive trims.

His programming is super boring without the two antagonist. Also he is use to luxury high end vehicles at this point not base model vehicle.

I agree. Only Jeremy can pull of solo with other parties like his farm etc. The other two are boring solos.

Ed (long gray goatee) lives by me and is the coolest guy. He's spotted me through some stuff I shouldn't have done.

I still can't wrap my head around the price tag for the Stoppe edition, how do they justify that price tag for just a different paint scheme than the 2 dr sasquatch.

Ford didn’t wait for glitter to go on sale at Hobby Lobby.

BMW has ruined the look of their cars.

My ex-wife just bought a 440i with the M-sport package in Brooklyn Gray. It's gorgeous from all angles UNTIL you see the front end. I have no idea who decided it was a good idea to make those enormous dragon nose grill openings.

I remember an episode of Top Gear where May is driving an Aston Martin Le Mans car, or something similar. Full race car, no radio, a/c, or working windows. It was funny as hell.

Great episode

The original top gear is just so much better.

Stealer near me has Oxford White Stroppe for $79,525...that's a WHAPP wrap !!!

Base paint is Oxford white, the code orange is painted at a different location.

As the owner of a 2 door V6 BaseSquatch, that I got new for close to half the price of a Stroppe, I approve this message...

Too bad he didn’t get to properly take it off road to see why we put up with all the trade offs on road. That’s like taking a Corolla to the Off Roadeo and saying the car sucks

True. Although how many people take Broncos off-road? Perhaps James May was reviewing as a typical Bronco owner.

Why do people always say this? Plenty of 6 Gen Broncos go off-road.

Well. James doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground when it comes to an off road vehicle. Broncos are not a cruiser. And that whole crap statement about not being stabile at high speed is a matter of a rookie driving something that’s make for off road duties.

I’ve had my Wildtrak up to over 100 when finishing a pass of 18 wheelers going to Moab Off-rodeo last weekend. It’s not a curve running machine but in a straight line or slight curves , it’s very stable at that speed.

For him to make that determination without taking it off road shows his ignorance of what Bronco was designed to do.

My Bronco is off road everyday. The road I live off of is unpaved. The entrance road to the house is 1 mile and gets very rough even though I maintain it every week. If I really feel adventurous, I have rock trail that I will take to get home. Also, there are trails around the house in the National Forest. And we are usually out for a drive every weekend. My Bronco spends more time off road then on road.

Yes, the man who has driven a Bugatti Veyron at 259mph despite being named “Captain Slow”, and who has driven super cars on multiple continents knows nothing about stability or driving at high speeds compared to you.

Driving at Bronco at 100mph on a public road is moronic and dangerous.

The mass of the vehicle, combined with the suspension, center of gravity, and brakes makes it ill suited for such a thing.

I’d have no problem running triple digit speeds in a lower-end European car all day long with little worry, because they are engineered for it.

Your Bronco is not designed to do that.
