There you go, the Tata Motors factor and an legendary unreliability history.

They must work pretty hard to actually be worse then FCA.

Truly gorgeous women know they don't have to be functional...basking in their nearby aura is more than sufficient. Same is true of the mid-90s Defender.

In fact, luxury items are usually at the bottom of every reliability index...but again, that isn't why they exist in the first place.

The Bronco was originally made famous for racing in and eventually winning the Baja 1000 race (1967-1969), hence the reason for sending the Bronco R back to Baja last year. Remember in the 60s-70s cars became legends by winning on race day, whether on the track or in the dirt.
Yeah, I'm just curious why there seemingly was no push by Ford to get the early Bronco into a wider market around the world. We don't see many of them around the world like LR and Jeep vehicles. I think the EB would have fared well and been amicable to various modifications due to the body style. It could have been a nice utility vehicle around the globe.

Wonder if Ford will bring a bunch of car journalists to a remote part of Africa to try out the new Bronco in a real tough enviorment like Land Rover did with the new Defender? Haha, no! The Bronco lacks the Land Rovers history and connection to historical exploration, so what will ford do to market the Bronco? Was the Bronco ever used for anything out of the ordinary?
You fit my predisposed image of a Land Rover owner

I don't recall the early Bronco (1966-1977) used much outside of the USA.
Yes, that is why I'm wondering what the Bronco was actually used for back in the day. Was it used by farmers like the Defender was? Was it used as a work vehicle? Camping?

Sure! But so you dont think Ford will take auto journalists to a remote part of Africa to check out the new Bronco then? I guess you're hoping for 'Alex on autos" doing a half hour review of the infotainment system and telling the Bronco looks "sporty" and "rugged" instead? Yeah, probably :)

On the basis that utter nonsense causes more leaks, not that we've not had enough nonsense already, what's next?

I think they want something like this with reviewers tripping over each other for photos and interviews.
