Hey all - So I made it to the event at Theodore Robbins Ford in Costa Mesa, CA.
Brief observations:
Brief observations:
- Overall, I'm still in love with what the new Bronco is all about. These things are thoughtfully designed and seem to be fully sorted - without yet being driveable...
- Cactus Gray is cool in person. Will it be cool in 2-3 years? Not sure...I'm now on the fence with this color. It is feeling flavor of the month-ish to me now...
- Badlands with black steelies is downright rad. Make them matte black and you instantly become awesome at life.
- I love the short throw of the manual - even if just sitting in a parking lot. I was manual or nothing before this visit but I now want TWO manuals in my Bronco (that was a joke)
- Badlands in my pics had 31" tires. 35" of SAS will be nuts. I may even feel like a man then...
- Antimatter blue is very cool. My kids called it black - so there's that.
- The doors did feel light and sorta cheap-o when closed with softtop - pretty tinny and hollow sounding - I felt as if I could dent them from closing too hard. This is likely due to making them light enough the take on/off - but just something to be mindful of
- A couple of the grab handles and interior door grabs were sloppy and felt weak and wobbly. Some deflected quite a lot which was not confidence inspiring. Hopefully just pre-pro...
- I'm 6'3" and I fit with zero issues
- Legroom for kids behind me was fine - a full-grown adult 'Murican? YMMV
- In the end, I want a Bronco more now than I did - and that's saying something. Manual Wildtrak where are you???
