Agreed, both of the ranger and the explorer are both lighter than the bronco is going to be. I also wanted to feel the chassis a bit as well, which is why i cost to test drive the ranger.Isn't driving Driving a 2.3l in the explorer a better comparison? The Bronco will be even heavier than the explorer so subtracting some performance from that should be the expectation.
I test drove a 2.3l explorer and couldn't get it back to the lot fast enough. It was LOUD on the hills and constantly felt like it was working. I wouldn't trust the reliability. I don't see the point of buying one when the cost to upgrade to a proper sized engine is so reasonable. Why sacrifice on the most important part of the vehicle?
For us who are thinking about the manual and would want one, it's not quite as cut and dry IMO.
