Stop trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. Yes the Bronco is similar to the Wrangler, yes the two will have some cross shopping between the general public, yes SFA will reign supreme when it comes to articulation... but to call it a "Knockoff" is historically wrong. Both vehicles have a long history that are actually tied together.
By the way the willys comes with powerlocks and windows too. It is the willys sport that doesnt. Oh. And this comes with a solid front axle and real articulation.
Ohhh and it is a Jeep. Not a knockoff.
Lets not get started with this... sure if you want to go almost a century back lol.... As of today, the 2021 or 2100 Bronco (not sure what year the bronco is anymore) is a jeep JL knockoff. It was built to compete with the JL. They made it too similar and they compared it too much to the JL.
Thank you for acknowledging that your previous statement was skewed and then continuing to miss the point. Both vehicles back in the day were boxy SUVS where the roof came off. I give Jeep credit in that Ford certainly copied their latest roof system and actually tried to improve it by making the sections smaller. Headlights are both round (you got me there) but the front ends are different visually and mechanically, the door system is different, the flares are shaped different.... they both have a roll cage... for legal purposes so there is really so much you can do there. So lets throw out everything about the Bronco's heritage with the boxy SUV with a removable roof just because their old school competitor is still around and the vehicles which were similar back then will be similar today. Didn't Chevy do that with the Blazer? Look how far that got them.
Not a Bronco fan but seriously have you ever seen a car manufacturer release a brand new model at the same time a once in a century pandemic hits?
Welp, Jeep managed to release an all-new Commander, updated Compass, Wrangler 4Xe, XR package, and new Grand Cherokee L during the pandemic. But sure, Ford gets a pass.
I'd like to see a Hydro Blue.
I can't comment. I wasn't around for the last century's pandemic.
We can agree on this.
The Bronco is likely to be a good fit for those who need a daily driver that can be used for light to medium trails on weekends.
So is a 4Runner. So were the Xterra and FJ. Aside from the removable top, there’s nothing new about the Bronco. Just another typical Jeep “competitor” with IFS and a solid rear.
