Anybody else getting the feeling that people are hating on this grill variant simply because it’s on the Base model?

I feel like an anonymous grill test is in order to randomize selection and see which one is most favored regardless of trim ?
I know I am in the minority on this, but since the base grille is the closest in design to the 1966 to 1977 bronco grille, I really like it. I am even considering getting one, painting it silver, changing the lettering to red instead of flat black, and putting it on a BL or OBX. But that's just me.

Yes, that stock Base grill is kind of meh. But just take a page out of the Wrangler book. Go buy a factory grill from a higher trim and put that on. That is what my plan is. Buy a Bronco for as low cost as possible then use the aftermarket and other sources to make it how I want. Ford wants people to modify and change their Broncos so factory takeoff parts should be readily available after a while. Seeing a completed base model has me excited.

At first I was thinking those 30s would be too small, but now that I'm looking at it they don't look too bad. Toss some A/Ts the same size and you'll have a pretty capable little rig for light trails.
I'd still replace them with 32s.

Geez, that gray top is starting to grow on me. If the flares can be made in the same color then i could actually like it.
Even on the iconic silver you would think the gray and silver would vlash but they give it a two tone look.

:unsure:

I think I still want white first, then black second.

I was OK with this grill until this pic .... Not a fan AT ALL!!

But I'd like to see the BD or BL grills at the same close up now.

Wait, I'm on it!

I think it is lighting. Because the grill looks different in these pics, and it's the same grill. We'll see better pics outside at the event

I never thought of asking this but when I try to search on google the tire they are using for the Sasquatch package nothing pulls up. I know they are Goodyear wranglers and they are 35” and mud terrain but when you try and find the specific tire they are using nothing pulls up? Is this a new mud terrain with Goodyear?
There was an article a couple months ago that Ford didn't want the wrangler name to be on the factory stock tires so they are having goodyear make the same or very similar tire without the wrangler name on it. I don't know what exactly is going to be printed on the tire
