Bronco is Plan B for a toy or Plan C for my wife’s daily driver( if she wants one). Plan A for me is an F-250 (7.3 if new, 6.7 if gently loved).

The Defender's price starts above where the Bronco should top out: $49,995.
The Frontier is an aging design and slightly smaller that the Bronco.
A certified Defender with less than 10k in miles will likely be priced close to fairly loaded Bronco and certified Denders will likely be available around same time as the bigger Bronco begins deliveries. Since Ford hasn’t released pricing, unlike Land Rover, we really don’t know. But I think the Bronco is going to be priced very high with the baby Bronco being budget friendly. A fairly loaded Bronco will likely compare in pricing to a Rubicon Wrangler Unlimited in the 50k range. I would prefer the Bronco as long as it’s bigger than the Wrangler Unlimited. Some comparison pics show the Defender 110 to be bigger. But it’s not all about cost, plenty of TRD 4runners around. Read up on the 2021 Frontier and you will see it is a redesign. Only carry over is likely to be frame and some suspension/braking components. Nissan has not released specs at this point as to what size it will be. However, Nissan has said it will not be a rebadged Navara. My guess it will be close to the below render. I’d want a crew cab with long bed and 4wd.

I haven't really kept up with Nissan, but a quick Google search tells me that the Frontier got a new powertrain this year (2020 model 3.8L V6 mated to a 9 speed automatic transmission).

The 2021 models are supposed to be a complete redesign, built around the 3.8L/9 speed powertrain combo.

I think we can safely stop maligning the Frontier as an "aging design" when someone's talking about getting a 2021 model.

I saw the Defender at a dealer last week. Looks really good, but also really expensive once you add all the taxes and fees.
