The "sasquatch" pronunciation bothered me a lot more then it should have I think. lol I don't care what anyone says, that's just not how you say it.......
Saw one on the showroom floor a month ago. Half the paint was orange peel. They literally slapped the Blazer badge on an all wheel drive mom mobile that’s trying to look sporty.
I owned a 1986 and 1993 Bronco. I put 150,000 on the '86 in 12 years. Overall it was a good truck. The 1993 had brake problems the entire time I owned it. I think it was the early ABS module that I never replaced but other than that it was also a good truck. Both were affordable but I have a strong feeling this new Bronco will be ridiculously expensive. Dealers will make up the price because its a Bronco. I also wish it had a Dana 44 in the front like the wrangler.
Just heat it up in a bind and you'll have plastic sauce all over that engine. Electronic fuel injection is junk for 4x4s. I prefer metal engines, not plastic frosted rev limited trash that's made today.
You'll be Lucky to get 10 years out of that plastic frosted Electronic fuel injected Junk. That's not a real Bronco, Jeep, or K Chevy unless it has a simple reliable carburetor on it imo.
I like the Bronco a ton but the Mustang isn’t exactly a sports car and neither is the Camaro. They are close as they do well in racing but the Corvette is truly the best selling sports car in America and it races other sports cars in IMSA
Won’t completely outsell Jeep but if you mean Bronco vs Wrangler I think Bronco will win yes... regular cherokees don’t sell either I can see the sport outselling cherokees easily but the grand cherokees will always be popular.... and then the grand wagoner Tahoe or Suburban whatever Jeep copies lol I’m curious if those will sell I predict it won’t due to high price plus NO WOOD like the classics it’s just a Tahoe copy or whatever big vehicle Chevy has I don’t even know but nothing like old wagoner...
Not gonna happen. A TRD-Pro 4Runner can keep up no problem. The bronco will die out just like the FJ. It's too expensive, too specific and impractical. They'll sell a few and in two years, they'll stop production.
@@maddoxinc1642 disagree. It's an SUV market only error I see here is they already made the mustang into an ev SUV. They should have made the bronco an ev...
@@maddoxinc1642 It isn't about "keeping up" it is about what the vehicles are designed to do. The 4Runner is a good vehicle in its own right but it struggle to sell to people who move towards more utilitarian-designed vehicles and away from cab extension, mom vans. The 4Runner isn't a mom van but it still favors practicality over specified functionality. FJ Cruiser with a removal roof and updates could be competitive. This is just the beginning of utilitarian offload vehicles that are soon to go EV
K, so making an 18 minute video about the Bronco without mentioning O.J. is like making a German History documentary that skips over 1933-45 all together.
I wouldn't pay ten cents for the POS. Turbo 4 with GDI or a twin turbo 6 with GDI. What a nightmare. Not to mention that junk 10 spd. At the very least I'd wait 4 or 5 years to see if last, which they won't. There is a reason you see FJ's and 4 Runners all over the place. Hell I like my money and I wouldn't pay a nickel for a new Fiat Jeep either.
@@Tsalinger the ecoboost motors definitely aren't my first choice but they aren't that terrible. I don't see what your problem is with the ten speed, I've had 3 of them and they are great
@@Blue_Flame_Raptor I believe the problem he's getting at is that it's a small engine being pushed by a turbo. Twin turbo? That V6 is going to suffer. After a while the turbos will need to be swapped as they tend to break. That's to say if they'll outlast the engine handling the extra pressure from the turbos. I don't like turbos in cars as it pretty much guarantees that you won't make it past 150k without it inevitably becoming a money pit asking for your money over and over. I have a Ford F550 super duty that's turbo'd and all. At 50k miles I already had a turbo issue that costed me 3k to fix. 20k miles later guess what? Another turbo issue. This time fixed under guarantee from the previous turbo I bought. I also own a Subaru wrx sti and have had turbo issues with that little boxer engine as well. Also owned a Honda civic sedan and Honda civic hatch and they all had turbo problems. In comparison, my 2012 card with no turbo are pushing 200k and I've had 0 time in the shop and very inexpensive repairs. In today's day the average person drives 15 - 20k miles per year. So in 4 or 5 years if this truck engine starts slacking you better have at least 6 or 7k to throw away or it's gonna be sitting in front of your home. I hope this is insightful. I have more cars but I won't mention them as they are not turbo'd. I mentioned the others because they are fords. I have a Ford F350 with 438k miles and I haven't needed major repairs on it either other than some work on rear shocks or something like that. Cost me maybe 700 or 800.
@@Chris-ty9ef I have a 2018 expedition with the 3.5 and its pretty good, my only complaint is the crazy cold start sounds and random hesitations it has
I loved everything IH! My 70 Travelall was probably the most enjoyable beast I've ever owned! International Harvester was always great quality. Ford Bronco was a terrible idea from the start. 1984 Bronco was quite plush and had a nice ride if we were 15 mph, in city or 3 mph in mountain trails!
I almost fell over in my chair laughing when I heard the Bronco release date was originally OJ Simpson’s birthday and they had to change it after they found out!!!
Not me. Electronic fuel injection is not worth the hassle on 4x4s. Carburetors are way easier to repair. We got a 86 renegade with a Chevy 350, Ford 4 speed, and Dana 60's front and rear on 44's. Well never sell it because it's so easy to work on.
@@noneshere you don't have to comment about your opinion on fuel injection and carburetors on multiple different posts. Fuel injection is definitely more reliable and easy to use because the computer does all of the tuning. I can't say anything about fixing it, but they both have their own complications.
@Noneshere This is 2020. Electronic fuel injection has been around for over 50 years now and on every new car for at least 30 years. EFI is superior in every way over a carbureted engine. The reliably for a modern engine is so much better and the ability to tune it is far superior. There’s a few old ass dude like you stuck in time 50 years but as you all die off the stupid old ways of thinking will too. My modern Jeep can go off road all day with no issue and puts out 290 HP and 295 ft lbs torque from a 2 liter turbo 4 cylinder while getting 28 mpg. That’s way more power than huge 7 liter carbureted V-8s we’re putting out in the 80’s. You’re going to keep getting called out on your BS here cause everyone knows what you’re saying is false
@@noneshere Yeah I'm happy to be rid of carbs because I HAD to work on them. Haven't done a damn thing on injection systems in 30 yr.s and 4 vehicles. Not to mention power, efficiency and so on.
You should be happy with it Ford does build the best US Trucks. I knew 3 people that had the late 1970's version I would go offroading with one of them and another one said when it snowed it would go through anything.
I’m glad Ford thought carefully when making the new bronco. They insure the car lives up to a bronco. Whereas Chevy builds some random ass car, and just slaps the name “blazer” on it.
Just seeing this comment 4 months later and I just have to say I angrily agree lol...my first car was a s10 blazer because I couldn’t get the 90s 2door one or the k5 as a high schooler. Still loved it though...I remember seeing a new Blazer on the highway and just couldn’t help to think it looked like a slightly sportier Traverse...what a disappointment to the Blazer moniker. Chevy could’ve had a dog in the Wrangler/Bronco/4Runner market.
If it whee for a release in 2024 forget making them in the USA just start production in China and just export the Broncos Made in China to the US and yet here comes for the project of MIC 2025. Harley-Davidson should do the same just shut down 100% of all US production and shift production to China, so comparing two identical Harley-Davidson bikes one that is made in China the other is made in the USA. So the owner of the last Harley-Davidson motorcycles that are made in the USA have oil leaks then the personnel will say of your Harley-Davidson has oil leaks is American made, then if a customer says that their new Harley has no oil leaks then the personnel will say if your Harley-Davidson has no oil leaks then is Chinese made. Result of that is that Harley-Davidson motorcycles that are Made in China are of better quality than Harley-Davidson motorcycles that are Made in The USA. Same with the DeLorean that is to make the new DeLorean a Supercar it has to start production in China, so to pass the MIC 2025 project the first digit on the VIN of the new DeLorean vehicle should start with the letter L. So the L VIN code stands that your vehicle is Made in China. It is for what you expect in 2025 vehicles. For the Bronco to be high performance SUV. People expected first digit of the VIN code: 1, 4, and 5 Necessary first digit for the VIN code to meet in 2025: L 1, 4, and 5 stands for a vehicle that is Made in USA L stands for a vehicle Made in China That is all.
@@brandonburns5365 However the bottle opener is installed upside down causing you to tilt the bottle up, potentially spilling every time you use it. No idea how they missed this on a device that's been around for a century.
Kinda wished that they also offered A short wheel based F series Bronco again like the 1978-1996 Full size 2nd-5th Gen Bronco Did ether way looks great.
@@marcg.3830 Well no. But you have to remember that Ford, Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson to name a few are huge advertisers for NBC, given the lower ratings to their television program (through a rising generation of people who prefer streaming services). We now are given these ads disguised as news, please remember to be objective, especially when the news source material leans on their advertiser's product. Aside from that it looks like the new Bronco will be body-on-frame as the new Ranger which i think is good thing. So long as they don't follow the downfall of the Chevy Blazer, which in my opinion is now a glorified minivan compared to the off-road capable 80's Blazer that was awesome.
Its not bad if you realize they are ment for low speeds. It's common for trucks and keeps to "highway crab", especially with bigger balloon tires. Our keep has 44's on it and we don't play the radio at 55mph. Its like driving a huge moon buggy. It requires all your attention.
If I was a young man I would be looking at the Bronco, but at my present age it is not for someone like me. I liked the original Bronco and then the newer ones, including the Bronco II and have three Ford's now including a F-150 pickup which I love most of all.
Very efficient and simplistic 4by4 ,no carpet. You could pull out the rubber matts and wash with a small amount of soap and water, using a garden hose and a rag. Parked with a slight slope and rinse off easily ,wash the inside same way and the same time as the outside. other than the dashboard and doors (if speakers 🔊) and headliners you’re washing the car inside and out with same two rags and two small buckets of warm soapy water and a garden hose . Easiest car to clean inside and out. Oh! And a whiskbroom under passenger seat. The rubber seal on back of the hood wore out to fast and when ya lifted the hood up when wet out, would allow water to run off of hood right on the distributor cap. Best vehicle my dad ever owned as I was growing up. Plus it had a shorter turning Radius than a Jeep, which was great for those Tight switchbacks in the woods. With a winch and a trailer hitch It seems like there wasn’t any place ya couldn’t go! 72 n baby blue.
They've had 24 years to perfect this thing. I think the independent front suspension is a weak point (modification wise) but hopefully it will prompt Jeep to get off its butt. Competition is a good for the consumer.
I tried to reserve a Bronco on the Ford website and it said I can expect delivery of the vehicle in 2022, so Ford is having no issues selling the Bronco so far.
I used to have one. Solid white, stick shift, V8. Not a bad vehicle but there was literally nothing special about it. I had it about 5 years and was happy to get rid of it.
It's really telling that the new Bronco is built on the existing Ranger platform (mid-size pickup), while the old Bronco was built on the F-150 platform (full-size pickup), and yet the new Bronco is even larger than the last generation. Cars in general have gotten HUGE, and honestly, both Jeep and Ford will have a hard time placating the off-road segment of the market that actually realizes how negatively weight and size affect pretty much EVERY aspect of performance on-road or off. Both the new Broncos and JL Wranglers in 4-door guise are full-size SUVs. If they want a cue as to what size is optimal for off-roading, they should be trying to offer models closer in size to a UTV/Side-by-side.
CNBC has a bad habit of being too US centric. The Ranger is NOT a new truck, it has been around uninterrupted since it's introduction in 1982. It was just not sold in the USA, but in the rest of the world it was. So the Ranger plattform is NOT new.
@@shiftymiata power may have been the wrong word choice, how about performance then. Slapping SS on a GM implies a performance level which the SSR nor 454SS did not achieve.
Seems like a better Aztek with weird but cool stuff like a bottle opener and a food tray. I like that Ford is trying to embrace the aftermarket and the community with the Bronco Nation.
Like the bronco , I haven't bought a new Ford since 2007 when my hood started to peal and ford refused to fix it ,so I traded in on a new dodge , and bought seven new dodges including a jeep , never had any problem with their service or paint . I do not work for dodge in any way .
At least there doing it justice to the name unlike the revival of the Chevy Trailblazer and the Toyota Supra. Which there all still dope vehicle's but could be better.
Yup what you said. Let the idiots try em out and be the testers, we sure haven't forgot about that 6.OH powerjoke ford came out with to ruin their name back in 03.
Fords new direction is with pickups and SUV’s. They are leaving the Car market for the most part. So they needed a serious off road vehicle to build new excitement in the brand going forward. They hit this one out of the park.
The New Ranger was released for all but the North American market back in 2012, they came with a 2.2L turbo diesel, a 3.2L inline 5 cylinder turbo diesel and now have a bi-turbo 2.0L diesel option. The Ranger Rapter has been around for a few years now in Asia and does not share much of body work of the ranger, nor suspension and is super capable. My neighbor has one and it in no way comes second to the large size North American Rapter except for being a mid-size version. I have had a 2.2L turbo diesel Ranger with a 6 speed auto since 2017 and drive it like I stole it, payload is 1,200kgs and I've had more than that in it (large CV cable roll) its very powerful, extremely economical (68L I can drive 1,085kms) and built to last, although some interior decor pieces will not, I expect to get upwards of 600,000 kms out of mine. I did more than that with my last Ranger diesel, but that was a 1986. So this Bronco being based on the Ranger platform is a game changer. I hope the diesel engine will be available in the near future. Its incredible.
