Where are the auto journalist driving reviews?

[ReimundKrohn]

No.
In your link, the journalist was in a "ride a long", and did not actually drive the vehicle themselves. You can't even call this a link a "preview" of the Bronco.

When magazines/websites do a review, they are left with the vehicle for numerable days, allowing them an honest chance to rate the vehicle as they deem appropriate.

nah yah. Makes sense!

The vehicles that would be the press cars are in the same batches as the dealer demos (which were starting to be made in May. So I expect reviews after you start seeing demos units at the dealers (mid-late June).

Yes Ford will supply sellable units for the press to review. Any unit before job 1 is not considered a production unit.

As it stands, I do not believe that Ford has provided any test vehicles yet to these publications as they have no production vehicles available for testing at this time.

This is correct.

There has not yet been a long-lead media intro program, which usually takes place before vehicles enter the press fleets for reviewers to sample. I would not expect this for another month or two.

They probably have done their reviews, using early production vehicles such as what was used for the ride-a-longs in TN last month. Part of the deal they sign to get early access is that they aren't allowed to release their review until a certain date (aka "embargo"). That date hasn't come yet.
