Given current events and what is happening and now the complete lack of "leaks" the past week-does anyone NOT suspect that Ford was intentionally behind the leaks we got?

It was more or less confirmed in internal meetings that it was in no way planned by Ford. Further they made it clear that they would be taking necessary steps to find out how/why the leaks got out and adjust accordingly. There will still be people who don't believe this but I really respect Kumar and he seemed to make it clear that this was not part of the plan, and that it is not the responsibility of individual employees to try establish the brand image via leaks whether through good intentions or not.Given current events and what is happening and now the complete lack of "leaks" the past week-does anyone NOT suspect that Ford was intentionally behind the leaks we got?
Well, my next question is have the leaks helped or hurt the upcoming release of the Bronco & Bronco Sport and has Ford benefited from the free publicity and "buzz" that the leaks created?It was more or less confirmed in internal meetings that it was in no way planned by Ford.

Haven't you figured out people are just plain idiots when it comes to cars in general? For all the lifted Flex comments and what not.I think the Bronco Sport hurts Bronco. People think it’s the Bronco. I’ve already had a couple people say they saw the Bronco and it looks like a crossover. Only to find out they saw the Sport. They really should use the Maverick name for that one. Sub-branding Bronco and Mustang are Lincoln MK(random letter) level stupid. Ok. Off rant.

Agree. The Sport should not have shown in any way, until the bronco was out 6 months.I think the Bronco Sport hurts Bronco. People think it’s the Bronco.

I do feel Ford is missing out on a great opportunity to turn the reveal into a major event seen by millions of people at home.
As for leaks, I think the first few were Ford, but the last ones (unwrapped) were definitely not.
Relax man. Some people like to be comfy when they're driving through bad land.HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Badlands Package appears to be the mall-crawler special. Body colored outside bits and heated/power/leather inside bits.
As someone said earlier, people are stupid, and this isn't likely to improve the overall perception of the Bronco name...
