The off-road mode graphics on the Bronco look like ice cream scoops.
I hope this becomes the highest comment
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
Ice cream mode for soccer moms 😂😂😂😂
Vanilla caramel with pecans
"Rocky Road"
"First, unlike the bronco it didn't just show back in our lives after going out for a packet of cigarettes 25 years ago!" that narration by James kills it!
Well the Bronco got pulled into some wild shit when it went out for that pack of cigarettes. Police chases and everything.
The straight pipes misses this creativity 😐😂
@@TheChimples I see what you did there haha...
@@preethamreddykasarla 💯 true
The bronco doesnt even recognize the wrangler anymore. The wrangler is random italian man now. Fiat junk
The Bronco was brought back to compete with Jeep not destroy it. I think they did an amazing job. Good for the market, it’ll keep Jeep on their toes and give us all some choice options in the genre.
Only available in NA
@@robertryan7204 And? I don't think the comment inferred worldwide distribution for the Bronco. It seems like you're looking for anything in an attempt to make something out of nothing...
@@buckhorncortez No unlike the Koreans and the Japanese they Ford are a bit restricted as far as selling their SUVs and CUV's globally
@@WackyPossum in 8&
@Cinda Oppenheimer huh?
2 things! 1) probably the best Canadian car show ever 2) it’s about time someone put humour in car reviews. You guys rock!
Yup! 100%
They’re not the first, if you haven’t seen the OG top gear/grand tour trio you’re missing out, the style of these videos seems to be inspired by Jeremy, James and Richard. But you’re still right, so many are so dry these days and it’s good to see.

The rivalry is real lol
I'm pretty sure it's the same actual Bronco, too. Both got it from Kitchener Ford, and it's the same color.

And today on Throttle house, James gets scared of a puddle, Carston goes for a swim, and Thomas eats a sandwich!
This really is Canadian Top Gear.
*dudududu* theme plays
Totally read that in Clarkson's voice 🤣
*Tonight on Clutch Apartment*
James conquers his fear of water by replacing half of Lake Ontario with iodine
Karsten fights for his life as he trips and falls into a pit of mud, and gets attacked by an assortment of woodland creatures
And Thomas kidnaps the guy from Binging with Babish and forces him at gunpoint to make him a gourmet sandwich using nothing more than whatever's snagged under the wheel wells of the the new Ford Bronco sport
Yupp they are absolutely worthy and capable of taking the top gear gig
All they need to do is have the Top Gear gents on as special guests and its RIP for every other car review channel. Also I'd love to see the "love/hate" between the hosts, would be so damn funny.
I've never been a Ford fan but man, this thing is a home run. It just looks so damn cool
Looks bloated
@@jizzyjake6783 lol it does but Ford>ChryslerFiat
@@arizonacolour8793 ehhh I'd rather burn to death in a KIA over buying another Ford
@@jizzyjake6783 repair cost reliability issues of fca are enough to consider a bronco
@@jizzyjake6783 just accept that bronco is better
As a Jeep JKU owner, I can say it's nice to see the Ford Bronco's return. I loved them in the 80's.
Good competition for Jeep now...Always healthy. Both are great rigs.
It's no competition. They're driving down a gravel road with some puddles. I live about 4 hours from Moab. I just spent last weekend at Sand Hollow. Not going to see a bronco there except in the parking lot.
@@TheBandit7613 ruclips.net/video/KFwPXEeJ3aI/видео.html even a crown vic can do moab
@@TheBandit7613 : Ford took 3 pre-production Broncos through the Rubicon Trail back in 2020. Yeah, they got banged up but they made it. So the new Broncos are pretty capable right out of the box.
@@oneslackr They break just like 4runners. The front end.
I see them at Moab. The CV joints also break when the front is both drooped and turned.
Bronco's and 4runners are alright.
I expect the Bronco will be cancelled like the Toyota FJ40 that was made from a 4runner. Once everyone gets one that really wanted one and doesn't care if it's not the best. Ford took the cheap way out and didn't design it from scratch. It's just a Ranger.
I was hoping Ford would build it from scratch. When I found out, I didn't want one any more.
@@TheBandit7613 : Sure IFS isn't as good off-road as solid axles especially when it comes to rock crawling. All I'm saying is that for what they are they're pretty capable & with IFS they have better on road driving characteristics. They will meet the needs of 98% to 99% of people looking for this kind vehicle.
I'd be willing to bet, like most 4WD SUVs, the only off-roading the majority of Broncos will probably ever encounter is driving down a gravel driveway or dirt road.
I love how the two review the same car
straight pipes go
"We won't off road this out of respect to the dealership"
Throttle house: drives through Lake Ontario 🤣
Literally just saw SP review and now these guys smashing bottles and beating it to worlds end.
That's why Throttle House is the channel I'm subscribed to!
Yea but I don't know what's better for publicity, a dealer who lets their inventory get beat up or one who lets their inventory get beat up?
its obviously the press car ...and not borrowed by a dealership and its also obviously 2 way diffrent type of review of the bronco ...
The straight pipes lost me awhile ago,
Hands down. Nobody does intros like Thomas and James. 😂
Hands down 6:30 is the best time ever..!
I agree but have you seen some of the newer videos of unbox therapy (especially the one for the ford lightning and one of the new laptops) they are literally movie quality
@@whosdat1778 its not about movie quality, the sarcasm and entertainment is everything
And apparently outtros too 😂😂
the outro as well!!
Being that Bronco is a brand new design, and already has this many numerous ways to build it to your personal liking, and that this is the Bronco's first iteration is pretty freaking cool. The Bronco is definitely on it's way. It's the start of something great.
Tested one recently. Underpowered, slow to react, rides like a bucket of crap down rapids, rattles and creaks in more ways than it should. Poor build quality on the interior.
They had to try, believe me, if people buy these they will regret it. It'll be recalled in no time flat, and it will be in for repairs often as well.
@@joelsmithers6887 yeah but it looks kewl
@@joelsmithers6887 🛑the🐂💩🤡
@Ip Man sure
Ip Man it’a a damn Ford of course he’s not wrong. Why would a Ford all of a sudden have good build quality and not rattle and drive well.
Can we just appreciate the cinematography for a minute!👏
Carsten 🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
so wait…. did these guys get the exact same Bronco that the Straight Pipes got, and proceed to drive offroad while they didnt want to because it was a dealer car? awesome job guys lol
Not only that they threw a fucking bottle at the paint XD
And the buyer will still pay over sticker lmao.
@@legopieface that bottle was made up of sugar glass, won’t even leave a mark. Don’t worry!
@@yusufkacchi9012 yep! No broncos were hurt during the making of that intro
@@yusufkacchi9012 correct, the lack of any label made that apparent
@@legopiefaceyeah I’ve always wondered that. Are these still sold as new? Especially the sports cars they’re revving out at 0 miles
They're scared at only 23 degrees? I do 32 degrees in my driveway.
Lmfao but when you realize they could of done the whole trail in 2wd 🤦🏻♂️ and running over gravel turns into rock crawling 😂
Once I saw them say that in the video I went straight to the comments.
I was confused by the "it's about to get really difficult" comment. Thought maybe they were about to get on a trail.
LA has regular streets in the 33 degree range.
ruclips.net/video/rx34Tbefh4A/видео.html&feature=share
The only thing we need more is an proper no holds barred off roading FJ Cruiser from Toyota to compete with these
Agreed. Not a single head to head video yet for those two. Definitely needed.
Fuckin love the FJ
@@bosco5996 FJ is a total poser off roader compared to these 2
@@BC08 only time I’ve ever seen a modern jeep off-road something went wrong after a day and a half of light desert running. My FJ was fine after doing the same trail dozens of times. It was a rubicon too. I wouldn’t trust a current gen jeep as far as I could throw it
@@bosco5996 I’ve never seen a Jeep chassis develop structural stress cracks crossing a speed bump at the mall like the FJ’s tend to do
Great synergy between you two guys. And great video/editing from your team. Big things to come for you all. Keep up the great work!
there is no 2 dudes i would rather watch demoing vehicles...these guys are hilarious
i must say that bronco just looks like a ford flex on 35in tires..
You could have stopped at “there is no 2 dudes I would rather watch” 😈
If Top Gear had to go and we "had" to settle with these two instead? Oh be still my beating heart
Lifted Ford Flex with round headlights
"These bottle openers are crap",yeah but these intros are amazing!
After much deliberation, I ended up getting the '22 Rubicon 4xe. Although I really love the way the Bronco looks and what Ford did, the inferior fuel economy was the main deciding factor for me. Each vehicle has it's pros and cons. I can say I absolutely LOVE my Jeep and don't regret getting it one bit! Hard to beat ~5L/100km in a mammoth off-roading speedy beast.
keep in mind the Jeep is much superior to bronco for offroading.. the bronco has IRS the jeep has solid rear axle, superior approach angle.. no competition..
@@roboticvenom1935 wrong. old school thinking not at all true. You also spend 99% of time on road where IS eats the Jeep alive, and the interior is much more comfy in Ford. Love Jeeps but archaic
Call me cynical, but when someone claims to have bought a 74,000 dollar vehicle in order to save money on fuel, I can't help but question their logic.
That smile is why I own a wrangler. Makes me smile every time I drive it!
The Straight Pipes: “Thanks to Kitchener Ford. We’re keeping this one on the road out of respect for them.”
Throttle House: “Hold my Timmy’s”
Big W for TH on that! 🤣
Was OJ the killer? Does Area 51 have aliens? Is Sasquatch real? I don't know but if you get this Bronco you have a reference to all 3 conspiracies
Didn't got you, will you explain..?
@@mislead1070 Sure. So the last time we had a Ford Bronco that vehicle was associated with OJ Simpson who was accused of killing his wife and her friend. But there are some who think that he didn't do it and there's this conspiracy theory that it was his son that did it and the whole looking guilty and trial and police chase were staged to take attention away from his son. OJ was in a 1993 Ford Bronco while fleeing the police.
This particular Bronco in the video has the colour called Area 51. And it has something called the Sasquatch package as well. Both are well known in the conspiracy theory communities. Area 51 associated with aliens and alien technology and of course Sasquatch (or Yeti / Bigfood) being this large hairy primate that is said to still inhabit the large deep forests somewhere in North America.
@@TheChimples So you just wanna say, Ford Bronco is a very old car and has many connections...
@@TheChimples nice of you to explain that for him but yeah good point with those conspiracy theories lol
@@TheChimples SMARTASS 🤣👌🍻
FORD BRONCO - hands down the best engineered both inside/outside top to bottom/all around plus it's just SO COOL 😎
It's never gonna be a best in the world jeep no matter what a junk ford makes
@@markstaggs7342 let’s be honest. Even if it were better, no Jeep person would ever admit it lol
@@PapaShongo25 Jeep only for me ,If you like a shoe box with wheels then go with Ford,Bronco wannabee will never be a Jeep tryingtobe lol
“Where’s my high five?! Too slow.”
*Buddy literally falls down.*
😂
"Baja mode" - that looks like a chocolate chip cookie mode to me as shown on the bottom of the dashboard
It is, in fact a chocolate chip cookie - an easter egg thrown in by Ford.
That was honestly my first thought too. I wasn't completely paying attention and thought: "why tf there a cookie on the screen?"
.... They should include a cookie dispenser :o
I was thinking the same hahaha
It's like chocolate cookie ice cream :D
Off-road modes animation in Bronco looks like ice cream
I can’t unsee it now😅
HA! Exactly what went through my head as well.
Haha I see cookie dough
*giggles*
That’s what I though it was
The Bronco is pretty good looking, honestly.
Only about 2 minutes in and this is already my favorite Bronco review. Glad I stumbled across your channel!
“I’m intimidated by wiring harnesses.”
Me too, buddy. Me too.
Was that the longest wait yet for the ‘and I’m James’? Felt like forever 😟
I been thinking on this for a day. Listing to the straight pipes interview with them speaking on “infringement”. Purely speculation on my behalf, and I am probably wrong…… but maybe the straight pipes “lawyered up” and filed a suit against throttle house. The interview tone certainly made me think they would. Hopefully I’m wrong but Yuri definitely gives me weird “entitlement” vibes.
I drove a two-door Wildtrack with Sasquatch yesterday (on-road) and I was really impressed; it drives much better than the Jeep I rented last year - quieter, smoother. Like most people, I'm not a serious offroader so the Bronco is getting my money - eventually! Both are fun vehicles for sure, but I learned to drive on the original with a 289 and three on the tree! Placing an order tomorrow...probably get it in a year!
Fantastic video! Congrats! Entertaining and informative. I really enjoy your videos.
Imagine a Bronco Raptor with the coyote engine.
Rather have the 3.5 ecoboost and 600hp rather than 480hp 5.0 V8
@@harleyrobertson73 What matters most is that they call it BroncoR... imagine someone boasting about driving a Broncor
The yote would be amazing but Ford is trying to abolish the V8 in favor of their EcoBoost so most likely it will be the 3.5 unfortunately
And a 2 door and a stick shift?
@@frederikseyler5795 they're calling it the warthog apparently, which I think is just tremendously fitting. Squat beefy terror with 2 doors.
TheStraightPipes can't touch these guys
Ever.
Throttle house is helping to fill the Top Gear shaped hole in my heart.
I’m sorry to TheStraightPipes but they feel like generic RUclips car reviewers. Throttle House is on another level
@@neelparmar6690 TSP is more if I'm actually going to get a car, consumer advice while yes TH is more Top Gear style entertainment. They both have their place
In my ideal universe, these two were hired by BBC for the new top gear.
Have you watched the Grand Tour?
@@1FiftyOverland yes but admititly it isn't the same feel as top gear
This content is so good. Not over produced, just the right amount
Very good review. I'm getting the Bronco. Thanks for the help deciding. Pleasant guys and banter too. Subbed.
“Well the Wrangler didn’t show back up in our life’s after going out for a pack of cigarettes 25 years ago .”
Instead it walked up to the White House in Washington D.C. in 1980 and 2009 asking to borrow Money from the hard working Americans 😉
I loved that comment
@@JayElement13 They turned it down. It was GM and Dodge that walked out of that meeting with checks in their hands. Ford was the only one showed in a regular car while the other two took helicopters and private jets. Get your facts straight.
@@twany442 Pretty sure he was referring to the Jeep, just like they did in the episode. The Jeep drove up the stairs, and then it's parent company needed the bailout.
reliabillity issues stopped it comin back xD
Thomas: I felt AWESOME doing it too....
James: Even in that shirt?
😂
You guys are awesome, I think I’ve now watched all of your intros. Magic
I've been watching bronco videos non stop for weeks and this is by far the most entertaining lol.
"Unlike the Bronco, the Wrangler didn't just show up after leaving for a packet of cigarettes 25 years ago." - James.
So what just like a Dodge Challenger what makes it so unique because it looks exactly like it did when they left just modernized
honestly props to the 4runner camera car for keeping up
Lol, my thoughts exactly. But I won't say I'm overly surprised tbh. It's a Toyota after all. They've got good off-roading pedigree.
@@Lex-Rex 😂 well you must be one of the hard core off-roading folks they spoke about.
Locking riffs, good tires and anything can keep up (well, supposedly)
they needed something reliable in case something would go wrong, after all :))
@@cosminv yeah just in case the Bronco or Wrangler got stuck they needed something that could save them 🤣
Both great cars! I'm 100% sold on the Bronco's styling cues, though. Great video guys.
Thomas casually eating a sandwich while sitting in a Bronco is the most peaceful, relaxing thing ever.
27:00 “jeep people wave at you” i got a wrangler this year couldnt agree more 😂😂
Ain't that the truth.....I have a Rubi, a motorcycle, and a boat, and everyone waves at me no matter what I am driving.
“You can really hear the branches scratching the paint” 🤣🤣 I’m dead 🤣
The worst sound 🤦♂️
Your banter never gets old. I watch your channel, not only for the cars, but also cause you guys make me laugh so much!!! The fly in the end… the dry sandwich?!!! Kills bro!! TY for the entertainment!!! And as an enthusiast, Wrangler any day. As you mentioned it’s more driven for off-road. Love the fact that it still has a solid front axle. You get better articulation in the harder places and that’s where the Jeep was designed for from the start. Love that you discussed the fact that it’s been around for so long and never disappeared, whereas the Bronco went for cigarettes and milk and didn’t come back till I was already an old man. Hahahahaha!!! Keep up the great work
Loved this video! It was like a mini car-trek! Thanks for being so entertaining guys 😁
20:13 James thinking about plugging it into his charge port.
So give them a like
"I felt cool while doing it"
"Even in that shirt?"
I'm ready for more wicked off road tests/road trips!
Nice vid! Your outtakes at the end? Even better 😆👍
James: “So you can murder people. Spill stuff!” 😂
…. Look even as someone who does actual rock crawling…. This was fun to watch. Well done
Lmfao but when you realize they could of done the whole trail in 2wd 🤦🏻♂️ and running over gravel turns into rock crawling 😂
Love the accuracy of the slow exhilaration of trailing
All those intro are so hilarous you get my like in the first 2 minute of every video I watched😂 you guys make good review! Throttle house my favorite channel since I found it 👌👍

1:30 "i felt really awsome doing it"
even in that shirt?

Real men wear whatever they want :)
In 2016 I was in the back of my friend's four-door Wrangler and we were hit head-on. I am 6 ft tall and my head was split by the frame bar that houses those speakers. The Bronco does not have that and I think it makes it much safer.
The bronco definitely would be my choice, and theyre much safer lol
That was a pretty great review, thanks guys.
The camera vehicle was a 4Runner. They had a reliable backup vehicle.
First generation sequoia is better 😎
Yeah, 4runner’s good.
"oh that's deep, oh that's deep, oh shit. Oh God...I'm out."
I felt that.
I absolutely love the look of the new Bronco 4 door.
So enjoyable ! Thanks guys!

As someone with a reservation in, and really not sure, this was really outstanding guys. Very informative.
The badlands bronco is the top bronco model for off-roading. The wild track is for dune runs. Trust me I work for ford.
I think they tried to go the closest in price possible
@@cw3982 and got what was available, it's not like you can go to a ford lot and pick a bronco out of the lineup to test. My local Ford lot is basically empty except a few Rangers, one escape, and a couple work spec F250s that every truck guy says they want but apparently won't buy even when it's all the dealer has left.
2 door manual, sasquatch package.
Are they making a Interceptor Bronco?
Why the Wildfrack is more expenive than the Badlands? Which one is the top line?
Wrangler: “there’s something in your blind spot!!”
Thnks for the review, need to find out the best one when I go get one tomorrow😃😃😃...
It's like watching two English guys argue in the most polite way ever.
"23°s.... I do 37° just leaving my driveway in the morning"... I felt that hahaha
I didn’t understand that part. What did they mean?
"thanks to the Ford dealership for loaning this" *immediately begins to destroy it off-road* lol
Meanwhile the Straight Pipes are babying theirs (perhaps same exact vehicle?)
No right or wrong I suppose, but definitely telling.
Definitely the same vehicle
It is the same car.
@@jaydendixon7300 like same VIN? No wonder the odometer was so high.
If the dealership cared they’d stop lending TH their vehicles
@@christopherdeck1493 Yes. Same dealership, same colour, same spec. They even mentioned in the Straight pipes video that there were only two on the lot, the other one being a red lower spec Bronco.

Thank you Carlston for ruining your shoes just for us to watch this video! Your shots and editing is always amazing! Hope they pay you enough to buy new shoes haha great job man!
Thomas & James, excellent in so many ways. Humor, content, and review...
Man the bottle opener got me subscribing.
I love that you guys include freedom units for mileage
"Parking in Trader Joe's", LOL!
I always enjoy Throttle House's videos, when there's nothing to do at the moment and just to come on RUclips and see this amongst all the great content on RUclips, this is the best!
That "trail" is like the road off-roaders take to get to a trail. 🤣
Lol the bronco has some interesting choices for pictures on the dash when changing modes looks like ice cream😂👍
No-one does it better than James and Thomas
Long live this automotive rivalry!
the bw shots at the end are STUNNING!
This was very fun to watch guys!
I enjoy your guys' reviews, but I find a lot of reviewers have a tough time reviewing the Jeeps, or off road vehicles. A lot of the time they just don't really get it. I like that you guys actually found some decent trails to take them on and actually understood what they were about and got the charm. My daily driver and winter driver (Edmontonian here) is a Jeep Wrangler when the Challenger is parked and I love it. You're absolutely correct it has a charm about it. I love that Ford came out with the Bronco to push Jeep into making the Wrangler even better. Good comparison guys, really enjoyed the review!
Liking before even watching never fails with Throttle House. Thanks for the video, awesome as usual, lads!
"Oh yea? Even with that shirt?"
Brilliant james
worth the whole video!
I'm certain that a farmer in his 2wd pickup loaded with cattle feed travels those "trails" daily without giving it a 2nd thought. Great review of the Bronco. I'd like to have one.
In a Chevy pickup lol
@@Dave-ps3ff I grew up on a cattle ranch in West Texas. Our ranch roads were in worse condition than those. We never had a 4wd. Only when I was on my own did I get the desire to off road for fun and bought a '71 Toyota FJ
oh my god it’s here i’ve been waiting for what seemed like years finally someone got a bronco!!!!!
Truly some fantastic content as usual guys! Just keep getting better and better! 100% the best car channel on the internet.
The outtakes were a cool addition
Thank you for this great video .
I have one quick question, does the water got inside the cabin on any of this 2 vehicles while going on the deep water ?
