Matt Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 FCA is printing money with the Wrangler. Insane margins they make on that thing. Some of them go for more than $55k. I'm sure that's the justification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take a look at a 4 door when they pop up in showrooms. in a few years i'll need a new rig to replace the explorer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anler Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 I have to admit that looks pretty cool. I wonder what the economy is on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raptor is a long wide body truck made for Baja, the bronco is a totally different animal not even close. Its a crawler not a race truck.

Ford has been nit picking this truck pretty good so they definitely want it to be a winner and take some of the market away from the Wrangler. 100 mph wind tunnel test in yaw and they "think" they heard a slight wind noise. LOL I guess that whats good about the front suspension on these also compared to the Wrangler. Better high speed stability. I'm wondering how many people will actually utilize all the removable parts on this rig both top and body. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/07/13/2021-ford-bronco-roof/ The 4 door version with the bigger All Terrain tires looks bad ass in person! On a different note we might be redoing the Wrangler tops now that this is coming out. Way more removable panels then before.

Shouldn’t take too much effort by ford to be a better driving vehicle IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted July 14, 2020 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted July 14, 2020 (edited) Heard the top trim level package was sold out by 10:30 last night. Of course they are only making like 2500. I was thinking about getting a Wrangler Unlimited next year. With a Ford dealer in my small town I'd likely get a Bronco instead.

Fords taken it to the next level by the looks. 2 door rides still not going to be great which is inherent of the wheelbase but the 4 door is hopefully better than the JLU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
