Seen it in Person? How big is the 2 door.

[WCP-82]

I am on this site for hours a day. (get a life, I know) My choice is the two door so I keep looking at two door Wranglers and they just seem too small to me. When I see a four door Jeep I'm like yes, that takes up a bit more real estate. I owned an 87' Ranger and loved the Bronco II back in the day but that's not what I'm wanting as far as size goes. My idea of a Bronco is the 80's. I have seen the size comparison charts along with all the dimensions. This Bronco is smaller than 80's but larger than a Bronco II. I am wanting to know from first hand observation how big does it look? I want my Bronco to at least seem like a truck and not a toy. I am sure the four door will be a big beast and probably more practical but in my mind the Bronco is the late 70's/80's of my childhood and driving years.

I have seen posts in various threads mentioning it's bigger than you think. Maybe that's enough for me but hoping those that have seen it can maybe expound on their view a bit more.

Oh, it’s big: https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...lands-in-cyber-orange-with-measurements.9976/ and https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/thre...ds-cyber-orange-seen-at-ford-r-d-center.8467/

First link shows it compared to F-150. Second link shows it compared to 4Runner. This is the non-Sasquatch two door Badlands.

Well the four door is only 16" longer and we all know the two has much more usable space than a Wrangler two door.

I believe the dimensions are very close to a similar doored Wrangler but in person the Bronco just seems much bigger for both 2 and 4 door. I believe it's the body panels and doors that make it seem bigger than it is.

almost 2' shorter than your Passat and almost a foot wider.

Personally I think it's the perfect size. Not tiny like a toy and not huge so you can't fit through the trails. It does look smaller with the tube doors though. It stinks that everyone can't see these before buying. We saw it and was able to get inside and the only thing with the 2dr is it's a PITA to get into the back seat. I don't care as I'll never be back there and love the look so much more than the 4 dr.

On the wrangler the doors sit inboard of the outer plane of the wheels and the hood tapers in and downward.

I think that’s playing a major role in the perceived, and actual, difference in size compared to the Bronco (even if they have similar overall footprints).

Nice comparison. I was actually going to pull that up earlier this week and it slipped my mind. I'm going to the garage with the tape measure after typing this. Sometimes I just talk (type) without thinking.

The 2 door Bronco is almost the exact same dimension as a 4 door Land Rover Discovery 1. Same wheelbase, length and width, but 2 less doors and a tick shorter in height.

Those are the pics that sold me on the BL 2 door, non squatched. I think it looks perfect. I am still having a hard time getting a real feel for it. I've seen plenty of F 150's and 4Runners and gives me an idea. It looks big compared to the 4Runner and small compared to F 150, at least how I'm seeing it. I think 4Runners are a decent sized vehicle so maybe that's what I need to go off of? Sure would be nice to see in person. I'm becoming obsessed with trying to know and visualize what this looks like without seeing it. Size, interior, all of it. Never bought a car blind before and I'm sure most here have not. I don't think there will be a chance for me to do so before ordering.

I can see that. It's like the Bronco body goes out over the tires more than the Jeep, making for a somewhat larger cabin.

Shorter than my wife’s grand cherokee and felt comparable in size to my LJ wrangler. Bronco cabin felt larger than my wrangler.

I love my Passat. Drove 760 miles on one tank of diesel.
