Wow, that's hilarious. "You guys gonna nitpick the looks of our frankenranger test mules? Fine! Have a hacked up Colorado body instead"

I also saw that the courier is supposed to be on a new unibody platform, where this definitely looks body on frame, so I'm skeptical that this isn't a Broncoeta: Some other outlets suggest the possibility that its a Courier test mule, but it would seem oversized and high set for that.
The axles etc. not being camoflaged seems a bit odd. I suppose they could be placeholders, but if nearly everything on it is a placeholder, then what good is it for testing?I also saw that the courier is supposed to be on a new unibody platform, where this definitely looks body on frame, so I'm skeptical that this isn't a Bronco
I think that's exactly what they're doing. So many whiners not getting the idea that the Ranger body was just a convenience and not representative of what the Bronco would look like. So they stepped it up a notch and made it super obvious that the body was there for the most rudimentary testing purposes and literally anything could be plopped on it for that purpose -- they even made the point of leaving the badges on the Colorado body.Wow, that's hilarious.

I think Ford knows exactly what they’re doing here. While I find it difficult to believe they’d go through all the effort, the Internet speculation should be hilarious and might be worth it.Wow, that's hilarious.

I think they’re just messing with us at this point. The fact that they’ve been able to keep it under such tight wraps up until this point is honestly very impressive, and I applaud them for the effort. My hope is that they are doing this to reveal something that either meets or exceeds the insane hype. I’m hopeful.I either have never followed an upcoming new vehicle this closely before and had no idea what to expect, or this insanity and mule abuse is just plain crazy and not the norm.
I've seen things like this with less expensive items like personal electronics and games. Where the manufacturer uses the months before the actual launch or reveal to lead the enthusiast community on a kind of scavenger hunt to decipher clues about the final product.I think they’re just messing with us at this point.
