Before i put my top 5 reasons, just to be up front, i am trolling. I very much look forward to my new bronco. I have had a 1995 bronco and a jeep tj and jk.
1. Jeep has been making a consistent product for many years at this point vs a first year remake of bronco. Yes the same thing for 70 boring years it's the only thing jeep could make money if not for a number of military contracts and government contracts over the years jeep wouldn't exist. thank your lucky stars for mail trucks.lol
2. Jeep has a more rugged look vs the more “car” like appearance with the straight lines of the bronco. I wouldn't say jeep looks more rugged, but would say jeep looks more dated as if nothing has changed to the appearance in 50 years
3. Jeep articulation is much better.
4. Bronco has tried and never been able to maintain. They have had the first gen bronco that is similar to the remake. The larger version of the bronco which was a total different look and purpose. The bronco II, and now a reboot. This is true ,but who cares fine with me if this is a one model year as long as I get mine! lol
5. Jeep has a diesel and V8 option. jeep V8 starting @ $77,000 isn't an option for me and don't plan to constantly tow so not interested in a diesel especially , with diesel fuel costing a dollar more per gallon and only marginal improvement to mpg.
Come at me!!!
yes, you need those parts with a jeep as the one's on the vehicle don't last long!6. Solid axle.
7. More parts availability. It will be at least 2-3 years before DIY Bronco repairs/mods will be widespread and realistic.
Point # 2 is very subjective. Factory vs Factory, I feel the Bronco looks much more substantial. As for the rest, yep seems about right. I’m still 100% in on Bronco and would take a lot to consider Jeep. I’m very much a mall crawler/very light off road kinda guy. The IFS is gonna be better for me and Ford runs deep in my family.Before i put my top 5 reasons, just to be up front, i am trolling. I very much look forward to my new bronco.

"STELLANTIS"Jeep is owned by Chrysler Fiat.
Two words...Death Wobble! Sorry, not done. Need to add a couple Acronyms...FCA, TIPM Failures. Oh, and who can forget the pot metal exhaust manifolds, and the leaky in the winter and hot as hell in the summer crappy roofs. No thanks, you can keep your Jeep. I'll take my chances with the revived Ford Bronco.Before i put my top 5 reasons, just to be up front, i am trolling. I very much look forward to my new bronco.

i like the look of jeeps but Death wobble, crash test performance, too small size, cheaper looking fit and finishBefore i put my top 5 reasons, just to be up front, i am trolling. I very much look forward to my new bronco. I have had a 1995 bronco and a jeep tj and jk.

2 words. DEATH WOBBLE.Won’t say it’s necessarily better, but Jeep will always have a longer and probably richer (military) history.
I bought my JL used with 27k miles of rental strangers and I have yet to experience anything like that. Though I do like IFS better.i like the look of jeeps but Death wobble, crash test performance, too small size, cheaper looking fit and finish
yep, I saw a few people in the thread mentioned that. I’ve had 4 wranglers, 3 lifted, 0 death wobble. ?2 words. DEATH WOBBLE.
