The commercial shows the Bronco be all about speed. It is a race truck.

This is why I bought a Wrangler:



I wanna see a Bronco do that. Oh and that's a real Wrangler. not CGI.
That is one of the best commercials I have ever seen that shows just what a vehicle can do. I still think the Bill Murray Groundhog Day commercial is my favorite, because it is Bill Frickin Murray.

Nerd alert!

Started pulling in some data to see what people are searching for: Ford Bronco or Jeep Wrangler. You can clearly see those jumps in Ford Bronco searches when spy shots, reveal leaks, and obviously today's launch take place.

Of course, what will be important to Ford is that these sudden upshots in interest stay more steady at those higher levels after today. Look at Montana bucking the trend already!

We'll have to see how much of Ford's market cannibalizes Jeep or if this is merely an indicator for how healthy the segment really is - in which case a rising tide lifts all boats (or maybe more appropriately, a 3" lift kit rises all off-roaders).

Just as a reality check, this is the average Wrangler buyer.

Actually, it's quite a bit higher than 80%. I'm reminded every time I try to find an aftermarket item for a two-door and see "Unlimited Only" on the availability. I have a friend in the aftermarket business, and when I'm griping about the non-availability of something he's quick to remind me "Dude, there's a reason Jeep almost didn't even bother making a 2 door JL..."

I had to take my wife's F150 in for service today, and stopped by the showroom to ask if there were any Bronco brochures. The sales guy saw me pull up in my JL and didn't even wait for me to ask. "We don't have any materials on the Bronco, and we actually don't know when they'll be in." That seems like poor coordination on Ford's part. I mean, they're spending all that advertising money to have a big splashy launch, but they don't enable their dealers to talk intelligently about the product?

@ThirtyOne - This generation is going to be running the country someday... :giggle:
Hope she gets a lot of tips on how to "decorate her car" (aka Jeep Stationwrangler)...
