yeah, ok. I give up. where's the exhaust?

edit, yes. I see the muffler. but do not see an exhaust under or past the bumper. does it exit underneath the Bronco not past it? good for protection, not good for long idling.

Original:


Enhanced version:

Yeah. Interesting hinge differences.

Goodyear Wrangler Territory MT. Good tire? Don't see those readily available...
Wish the Bronco wouldn't come with GY Wranglers at all...

 

[tacowolf]

I think it’s there. It seems to be really tucked in which is a good thing

yeah, ok. I give up. where's the exhaust?

I know this is a grainy still frame, and I would imagine the same truck.

But, the OP hinge pic shows a very obvious external hinge. this pic/angle there is no bracket crossing onto the rear fender.

I cannot figure out what is going on here.

Looks like the hinge simply isn't attached in this pic and those are the mounting holes/flange...perhaps implying it can drop and swing.

I know people said this is a common marketing tactic but the Bronco IG page and how they’re doing this is badass.

No trailer hitch. I"M OUTTTTTT. lol

It'll probably be like the FJ Cruiser (the trailer hitch can be added behind the bumper kinda like a hatch idk how to explain it)

The hinges are exactly the same. There are some illusions with the picture from the video but the horizontal recess is the same and the hinge is the same.

Long muffler starts just under license plate, exit would be on passenger side, just under bumper, probably cut shorter on this? Or done on purpose to maintain exit angle!!

Not too much of a fan of the rear bumper. Hopefully some good aftermarket options will come out in a year when I plan to buy.

 

[Broncolli]

Looks like no way of being a drop gate unless the tire somehow moves.

even then - a tire swing out would still suck if you wanted to actually use the tailgate - especially to bring large cargo like plywood. Can't drive around with a tire in the open position. What would be cool would be an option to mount the tire under the vehicle for cargo and utility purposes and relocate it back when going offroad.

 

[Dirty Bronco]

We are less than a week away from the reveal and the more I see, the more fascinated I get... It appears this thing will be much more modular/customizable than any of us anticipated. ie, tailgate option AND swing gate option.

Might be removable. With the external hinges and all.
