Looks Like Ford Bronco is Serious About Taking on the Wrangler

[Aenima]

Man, I just looked at the latest leaks and updates for the Bronco, it's interesting I and thought I'd discuss a thing or two about it. Then I read the previous three pages....fuggit, there's no point. Way too many dudes trying to stretch their d!cks out and then arguing about whose is the longest.

Lots of us would prefer to discuss the Bronco...

"It's a Bronco Thing , you wouldn't understand "...

...
Starting Monday America will experience something never before seen. Mass self-isolation. Most companies will ask employees to stay or work from home a minimum of 2 weeks, probably more....

Ford is asking all employees to work from home, save for all critical-business roles.
....

Guess, what, building cars is mission critical for car companies. The plants with thousands of people in them are still up and running.

Ford, GM, and FCA last week informed much of their white-collar workforces to work remotely, but they have kept manufacturing operations up and running despite plant closures overseas.​

Cancelling the debut because a few 'press' personalities might have to be in the same room with each other is just a lie to fool you about what Ford thinks is important.

UAW will make sure all the plants are shut down in the next few days....that may greatly reduce potential short term incentives...

Your name =

I assume you're referencing my favorite band. If not, it's still a cool name!

Ahem...

Seems like the 10% number is just flat wrong....based on the SEMA study provided earlier:....

62% of registered TJs and JKs are "accessorized" according to SEMA's report (Pg 7). Of those, 55% offroad their vehicles (pg 32 of the report)....so according to that, roughly 34% of those vehicles are offroaded.

doesn't take into account the non modified jeeps that off road, as this is focused on sema vendors.

so real number definitely over 50%

Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say definitely....but pretty darn likely.

Interesting discussion....I tend to think closer to 10% or less of JL owners prob take their jeep where 4wd is legitimately needed. The TJ attracted a way more purist buyer compared to the refined JL...I dont think those SEMA stats including the TJ translate to the JL. You didn't see soccer moms daily driving TJ's...the average TJ owner seems much more likely to modify and go offroad.

The JK obviously attracted a broader audience, but annual sales show it didnt appeal to the masses like the JL has so far. The JL's refinement has expanded it's appeal with daily drivers and families. Also, the JL's higher pricepoint likely deters people for fear of damaging and depreciation.

Considering all these factors, I imagine a good bit lower % of people are taking the JL offroad vs. the JK.

You guys are hilarious. Even with the skewed results, you still are trying to make it fit your narrative. It's been conceded that no one actually believes that it is %10 that was just a number pulled from the air to illustrate a point. A point that you provided proof of from the article. Whose results are likely skewed by people not wanting to admit that they spend all that money on accessories they will never use. And then grasping at straws to say that there are at least %17 of Wrangler owners who wheel their Jeeps stock. It's okay to admit that most Wrangler owners won't wheel their Jeeps. We still have more owners who do wheel than anything else.

I found this video from @TeraFlex and it’s pretty amazing. I find it accurate and applicable here lol.

Enjoy!

That was never the discussion though....

To change it to the "JL" now is simply an attempt to move the goal post.

Didn't bother to read the report, did ya? If you had...there was a section that specifically addressed the fact that a large percentage of 'accessorizers' only did it for "appearance" and didn't go offroad.

But thanks for playing.....
