Road Reviews: When do you expect them?

[Desert_6G]

The main reason I keep checking the forum is to see if road reviews have been published.

When do you think we will see some actual on-road reviews and articles on the Bronco?

Does Ford allocate production units for these reviews, or do they have pre-production units set aside for testing?

Do you think these have already been complete, and Ford is controlling when the info can go "live", or are reviewers still waiting on units to test?

All the off-road stuff was cool, but the on-road daily driving is what I am waiting for.

I'm waiting for the same thing. But I don't think we will see any of these reviews until next month. I havn't seen any news on when the press/media will be given Bronco or when the embargo date will be lifted for test drives. TFL is the only reviewer that test them to my liking. Everyone else is just borning to watch and only gives vanilla reviews. But I don't think they will be able to get their hands on one as soon as everyone else. But I'd like to see some side by side drives with a Rubicon...

Don’t worry. I’ll upload a thorough review when I pick mine up in July!

I just want a review of the manual. I am a little worried turbo motor and EPS steering will take away from the experience for me, because I am a 70 year old trapped in a 40 year old body when it comes to cars/trucks.

But, a manual Bronco is very exciting to me, it is as appealing to me as an old school 911, I just want to know it is decent and I am sold, I might buy 2, TBH.....but I would love to know it is decent. I am similar to the OP, checking the site often to see if there is any impressions/reviews/opinions. Can't Wait!!

Exactly. Minus the old man part, felt like I was reading what I'd write.

Autos bore me, dime a dozen, I wanna see how the manual actually is by paid shills independent journalists

look at YouTube for something that just might be true. Maybe TFL or along those lines. Not sure if you will get much reality on a forum if it’s negative.

Looking forward to the Doug DeMuro review. They gave him a prototype pretty early on and I would expect that he will be getting one of the first to roll if the line. His prototype review has 4.5 million views so he can definitely get a lot of eyeballs.​

This is interesting to me because I feel like they consistently start with a conclusion and then work backwards to find what critiques they’ll bring up.

On more than one occasion I’ve started watching one of their videos and notice what I feel like are creative interpretations or inconsistent standards in their reviews…. Which seem to lead to the outcome they had already decided on.

Though it may just be the way the review / write / edit their content.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

As much as I enjoy most of Doug's reviews, that one was a complete waste of time IMO. No engine, MASSIVE tires, and pretty much nothing that was going to be on a produciton vehicle?

I'm let down that Doug even published that video, but I'm sure he couldn't pass up the $s that came with the 4.5 million views it got.

Hopefully a dealer they have a good relationship with will allow them to use their demo unit to do a review.

First media drive events will be the week of June 21st.
I don't know if this is under NDA, so I'm not going to name the video source in case it was an accidental slip. I'm also waiting for the on-road drive reviews. I make a couple 600mi highway trips every year.

Speculation following:
embargo until July, give the media some time to produce their content
July deliveries for customers and dealer mannequins to start on, or within a couple weeks of media embargo.
