The Bronco, especially the 4 door looks bloated! Just plain fat!
Agreed with this, I need the 4 doors for gear, or I would definitely look at a 2 door. There's something about the sides of it that just make it look off from the side, especially with the top off and doors on. The front they did really well, but the sides look bloated, and rear is a direct rip-off from Jeep.

The second video in this series does a better job of showing the true capabilities IMO.

Also, just so people are aware, the owner of that Bronco (Tyler I think) is getting super popular amongst new Bronco owners, but amongst the manufacturing and social media communities... he's starting to get a bad name. He wheels that Bronco too hard, is breaking stuff, scaring people into thinking its a huge issue, but not to worry, his company sells the part to fix it!!

If you talk with anyone actually in the Bronco community who are wheeling it hard and doing aftermarket manufacturing testing, they all say the same thing... people busting tie rods are driving it too hard at the wrong time. It's not a Wrangler... it can get over the same obstacles, but you can't drive it the same way.

Also, the Goodyear Territories that come on it absolutely suck. That doesn't help. Stickier tires would go along way for a lot of people busting tie rods. Just crawl it!

I'm a Bronco two door fan, IMHO, it looks great. Every one I've seen on the road looks good. The four door is, as others said, a whale. Looks like it is trying to be a baby Hummer or something. No style on the sides and just bland. I haven't driven one but I have been in one and it feels remarkably like a F150..which means it is far more comfortable on a longer road drive than a Wrangler (sorry). And it is an easier fit for taller people. That said, if they were equal money, I'd still take the Rubicon four door over a Badlands four door. Now a Badlands 2 door???? Hmmm.
