Yep. I'm thinking we will get some real answers. Embargoes mean there is real information out there that just hasn't been released yet. Makes sense why we've had so many non-answers from Ford.So this week it’s about to go down

2020 GT500 Timelinewhere does the April earliest date Projection come from? That would be just around the time when orders start being delivered.
I would expect to see some road and off-road tests before that, maybe head to head with Wrangler off road, some 0-60, 1/4 mile, skidpad, braking data. Need to know what our $40k+ is getting us.
I agree. First drive review just before they are released to the public.I agree with this. Ford still needs to finalize things between now and then and get some production quality models out to the testers. I think Feb-March is safe bet.
Which Yearlater april
Is that even remotely fair comparison? The difference in wheelbase I would expect to be huge.I dont know your answer ,but Im anxious to read Motor Trend and Car And Driver's driving impressions before I buy after watching the reveal of them rolling on the desert at speed. They don't look they handle the moguls very well. Watching the two door one gave me flashbacks of the oldman's 76 pounding your kidneys out. Little worried about that. Definitely doesn't look like my Raptor looked and felt going across the same type of terrain.
The Bronco is somewhat on the same timeline as the Ranger was before production. Press day and drivers were around December/January IIRC with deliveries begining March. So I would assume Media hands on and the first batch of full production demos will be around January/February once they tool the assembly line at the end of this year.In comparison to the late April timeframe for orders to reach dealers, when can we plan on seeing initial impressions from the major media outlets on driving impressions?
Print magazines have long lead times (months) so they would get pre-prod models. Ford will be thinking long term with their marketing, once the Broncos start showing up at the dealers there will be increased demand (which will be unable to be fulfilled for a long time).Would those be considered pre-production? If so, then any problems and Ford can brush them off as pre-production. Otherwise Job #1 in the Spring is a long time to wait for this to happen. I want reviewers to have their way with the Bronco and honest review it.
Go read all the KOH reviews and watch the videos. Pretty good test drive without a test drive.so ford expects us to reserve without knowing anything, place our orders before anyone gets to drive them.... man are we gulable!
More to a test drive, vehicle review and vehicle performance than just the KOH reviews and videos.Go read all the KOH reviews and watch the videos. Pretty good test drive without a test drive.
Yeah those KOH reviews are really good and as close to a review as we are going to get for now.Go read all the KOH reviews and watch the videos. Pretty good test drive without a test drive.
