"The Ford Bronco was a Small Wonder"

[ZackDanger]

Another fantastic Hagerty video, this one about the first generation Bronco:

​

The original Bronco was a logic-based response to the Jeep CJ-5, Toyota Land Cruiser, and other 4x4s favored by aging, ex-GIs in the early 1960s who wanted creature comforts. And it was a massive success — in that very small market. ​

​

It wasn't until the Big Bronco, modeled after the enormous Chevrolet K5 Blazer 12 years later, that Ford achieved real sales success. ​

​

But the small, billygoat Bronco has become a legend because of its incredibly simple good looks, powerful engines, and (compared to its rivals) easy on-road comfort. ​

​

History is repeating itself — the 2022 Bronco follows the same recipe, but this time, Ford knows a 4-door will sell in larger volumes. So the new car will be sold in both Big and Little versions. And we suspect it'll be the little, 2-door Bronco that will wind up in videos like this one day.​

Great share, thanks.
Here is another one on the Big Oly story. I think something longer might have been posted before but it seemed like a good chance to bookend some good EB content.
