Damning quote on Bronco vs Wrangler

[Stormin’ Moorman]

The 2 door is 7" longer...Someone else mentioned it's 4" wider. They also posted a side by side picture. The bronco is huge!!!! It's not magic, just bigger.

Snagged this pic off of FB. They’re freaking gigantic!

Women seem to love driving gigantic SUVs.

There you have it: Broncos are for girls.

Another member called bullshit on this so I don't know if it is true or not? I don't care enough to fact check but they sure look MUCH bigger!

After seeing the pic I was trying to figure out what's so gigantic? Maybe the wheels, the grill, hood? Then the light bulb went off! It's something about her! The sunglasses?

According to official specs, the Bronco is 1” wider than the JL…

Winch or wench, winch or wench? Can never get the spelling correct.

I asked you to give it a break? You are at the point of trolling now. Please Stop.

I don't think you know what trolling is. Where you asking or telling me?

i got my hands on a 2.7 sasquatch bronco back in June.

i think my experience driving the Bronco for two months before the motor blew RMS and i switched to a 2dr JL gives me the ability to make a fair comparison:

1) the 2dr bronco turns like a school bus. the 2dr rubicon turns like a sports car.
2) speakers were utter trash in the bronco but they were also the lower option - maybe the higher option is better? the sound system in the rubicon is the upgraded one and it’s insane.
3) the 2.7 took FOREVER to get up to temp. the 3.6 gets up to temp within 5mins.
4) bronco has a lot of crevices that are a pain to get into with a power washer, jeep is easy to clean.
5) bronco couldn’t pass a gas station. 3.6 doesn’t drink gas like water.

the 2.7 has some lag but it’s pretty quick when it kicks in. off-roading it was like sitting on the couch - seemed the truck did 90% of the work, i just turned the wheel. it also unstuck itself when i sank it in some sand. the 2dr bronco is overall a larger vehicle than the 2dr wrangler which is great for some things but not that great when you’re trying to squeeze between trees on the trail.

also my almost fully loaded rubicon was the same price as this sasquatch 2.7 bronco with lower interior specs - small screen, cloth seats, trash sound system and a 93-loving gas guzzling motor.

i prefer the JL. YMMV.

One thing, of many, I love about SFA over IFS is the turning radius.

It's the body of the Bronco that is much wider. The Jeep is so well thought out for the trails.

The Bronco seems confused. I’ll stick with Jeep.

Same thoughts and experiences here. My previous vehicle was a 2016 Nissan Juke with a 1.6 turbo i4, cvt, and both regular and torque vectoring awd. It wasn't a hotrod by any means, but at only about 3k lbs, it had some zip to it. Sport mode was a hoot! I could gap much stronger vehicles off a dead stop, until they got in their power band and passed me like I was in reverse.

I really liked our Juke with the 6 speed manual. That little turbo was a lot of fun. I even tried to 'man it up' a little by making a custom lower bumper, added tow hooks, gave it steelie-looking wheels, beefier white letter tires, and wrapped a bunch of interior bits.

Nice 1st gen you've got there! My wife's 2nd gen is the same color as yours.
