That's been known for quite some time.
And why I'm in a JL now even though I'm a die hard for fan. The Bronco might come in somewhere between a JL and 4Runner... might. I read an article the other day that the general public does not want what the die hard Bronco fans want.

Never mind then. I'm a diehard Bronco fan, andvdont want a watered down version.

I'm in a JLUR now instead.

It was stated last year at the autoshow that it would share a platform with the Ranger and the South American SUV Everest. And that fact meant that it would be IFS. It was only because Dana was named as a supplier that folks started to think that the information was incorrect. But Dana also does IFS components as well. But folks were in denial about the truth and kept saying that "we don't know, it could have a solid front axle." But there hasn't been anything at all that backs that up.

That Bronco looks terrible. Looks are subjective, sure, but damn.

Regardless, more competition is definitely a good thing for consumers.
I had high hopes but I have seen the CAD model of it and I personally was not really impressed.

You guys are wrongly informed, it’s known to be solid axle for a long time.
No its not. Nothing that has been out suggest its Solid Front Axles.

How long ago was this? What did it look like and what didn't you like about it? Did you see the original cad design before it was "redesigned because it looked too much like the wrangler"?

Can you find a concept image online that is similar to what it was that you saw?

Did you see a 2 or 4 door model?
