If that were the case, you would've started with that, not spew some bullshit about "20 year old springs" and when called out, switch to something more convenient. But hey, I'm just here to call you out on your BS, because you've seemed to be spewing it all over the place ever since your dreams of a clown car Bronco were crushed. Oh, poor you
Have you heard the quote a pictures worth a thousand words......well then a video that can compare them should be worth more. Thsi has probably been posted but it's nice to see old vs new to really see where we're at today. Smooth ride also improves performance so lets admit that too. I don't care which one they build but if you've got a sharp eye it's right there before your eyes, most likely and probably on both. for liability reasons.
You're really going to compare a 200k rig that's not street legal and purposely built to race baja to a slightly modded 50 year old EB?
You know your ignorance abounds..... Did you listen to the comments they made by the guys at Ford on the project? Open your mind and look at what they showed you......It's not me that lacks the ability to see the differences. By the way in reality it's costing them millions and millions, so you missed the mark by more than a few millions to develop this new product and the race rig to bring to the market........It's obvious you never designed, engineered and built a widget let alone anything else the public will buy.......Nice try einstein. Yes they have hybrid stuff on it but those shock setups can easily be changed for the consumer market........OOOPs foiled again. See the correlation here if in fact if you listened, they told you it was the chassis ........... what's wrong Skippy ...it's a bitch realizing somebody else can listen and apply what the Ford Reps said.........hell the guy that rode in them made the observation how smooth it was........this would be the time some of you faced reality........Now who's being foolish.....LOL
Seriously, who let their 12 year old little brother on here?
What's wrong my opinion a threat to your group think? I'll go away but you guys need to open your minds a bit because in the end the facts are supporting what I'm trying to tell you is coming and most likely what I'll buy. You on the other hand will have to buy a jeep to get that SFA you just can't live without in an SUV. That's the good thing about America we have choices for what we buy. But Hey since you must have overlooked the Bronco video on the home page that states chassis preproduction parts worked just fine it kind of shoots a hole in your dream. See that's the difference between having a masters degree in engineering and well... group think...we learned to read, comprehend and apply what the guys designing the product said. you......not so much.....LOL
I’ve stated many times that IFS is not make or break. I am also very open to Ford creating something new that way that works better then what I’ve seen. However, that’s been tried over and over again and it never quite accomplishes what a solid axle can do off-road for a vehicle like this.
Come on stampede, I know you're blinded by IFS envy, but it can't be THAT bad!
How many times do I have to state what ever they make will be an improvement! Notice everything I posted pertained to the new prototype even the SIDE by SIDE Shock stuff, which we'll see improved on the new model.. So you guys may still get your wish with the Brazilian model after they get it to meet regulations here. So nobody is attacking your right of choice. it a free country and I hope you
Yup, not a Ford loyalists here. Only currently own 5 plus a Ford tractor from the 50s. immediate family has another 15. There are only 3 non-Fords in the family aside from my motorcycles, my wife's 4runner (which will be traded in for a Bronco), an old beater eclipse, and one of my sisters bought a honda CUV recently.
