I’m sure it’s better on the road but physically impossible to get the same articulation with an independent suspension vs live axle. Unless of course you pay over 20k for a race suspension…
The problem that I see is that the suspension components look wimpy and they will likely break when doing extreme offroading. Probably lots of broken cv shafts with the front locker too. They should at least make a solid front axle an option for people who will actually use this truck for offroading. The ifs is fine for mall crawling and it might have the capability of a solid front axle, but it definitely doesn't have the durability.

I have a 2021 ZR2, and after seeing that 2 tone interior with the brown...I want that in my truck! I had a 204 Ranger FX4 for 13 years. I'd still be driving it if the frame hadn't rusted out. At my age, I still like simple interiors. No push button start, big television screen, or so many lights it looks a Christmas tree on start up.

I hope to see one soon, I want to see it in person! Great vid!
I really like these new Broncos. I wouldn’t buy a first year model but I will absolutely consider one of these when I’m ready for my next vehicle. Give me 4 doors and auto transmission.
I drove the 4 and 6 at the Rodeo. Both were very impresses. I own 95 EB and have used it off road for 20+ years and off road regularly for work with full sized trucks and suv busting our own trails. We put these bronco through some pretty serious rock crawling. Super capable. It makes off roading easy and comfortable for novices. Full disclosure. I have a wildtrak on order and have had reservations since day 1, so I was in before I actually touched one, but after playing with them, crazy impressed.
I think the new Bronco has to be one of the best new vehicles on the market right now They really got it right and the 2 door just looks amazing I want one
Weird that I’ve been watching this channel for 8 years now and went from watching for FR-S impressions and now want an Ford Bronco because of you. I didn’t see myself as a Ford guy or an SUV guy!
Jeep brought the 392, ecodiesel and plugin hybrid to the wrangler, but only on the 4 door. Getting all the features in the 2 door actually makes me wanna look at this kind of vehicle again.
Very true about off roading on a course vs actually venturing in the back country for camping/fishing/mountain biking or whatever it might be, that's when it's fun
@@bigmarkdarula I think the two percent or .01% will call driving on the winery’s gravel driveway “off roading”. In my neck of the woods I see a few Jeeps bought as a third vehicle for flexing fun by the wine moms. I walk by their recycling bins and note the multiple bottles. 😂
@Harry James Pleat Thankfully, my local Panera parking lot doesn't have speed bumps, so I can safely negotiate it in my Mustang and don't need the mall-crawling capabilities of a New Bronco or JL Wrangler to drive on it. ;)
Hopefully Ford has the 10spd auto issues worked out. The one in my F150 seems to get confused and often clanks into gears. And it’s had a software update already. The rest of the truck is awesome though.
Damn, you gotta get that issue fixed and start enjoying that transmission. The 10 spd in my 2018 F150 has been stellar right from day one, whether I'm towing a 6000 lb RV or not towing anything. Good luck!
They flew in and out in 24 hours and literally had to spend that entire time picking up their gear, filming, taking back gear, and flying out. They had mentioned that on their podcast because stuff like this makes them miserable but alas, unless more people subscribe with the way RUclips does it's metrics they only way they can afford to keep this channel going is to keep up a burnout pace without more people signing up. Hence, do your part, get more viewers, and maybe next time they can spend more time in Austin.
Huge selling point - For all those times you've had horrible diarrhea just sprayed all over the interior of your vehicle when you just needed floor drains so you could just hose it all down well the new Bronco has you covered!!!
If modern fords were reliable, I would order one of these, but I can’t pull the trigger without seeing some long term tests. Last thing you want in a overland vehicle is it breaking down 50 miles away from the nearest road.
@@Achtzehn83 My first car was an Explorer Sport that I got to 345k, mysecond was a newer Buick LeSabre that ate shit at 180k, so I have an inherit bias for Ford as my current Mustang is at 130k and running like a top.
These things will sell like hotcakes in USA and North America, but not a single person in the rest of the world would want a Ford Bronco over a Toyota Land Cruiser 76/79/150/300.
This vehicle is incredible. Ford is doing so many things well right now with the small and large Bronco line, F150 line, f150 lightning, and Mach E Mustang line.
As a Jeep Rubicon JLU owner, I must say, I think the Bronco looks fantastic. Chevy’s Blazer is basically a boring airport rental car that I’d be stuck with on a business trip, while the Bronco is something I’d love to take on a off-road trip somewhere.
Waiting for the safety tests results and braking distance. Ford has had a lot of true 5 star safety cars from IIHS. Hopefully braking is competitive too, it’s stellar in the Bronco Sport (escape).
I’m looking forward to seeing your fully in depth review on the new Bronco. I think Ford absolutely knocked it out of the park with this new body-on-frame Bronco. If only Ford can execute most of their other products just as well as this vehicle (With the exception of the F-150).
The Bronco looks and performs so much better with the KO2s. The Goodyears caked up with mud on the Bronco, and struggled to evacuate and maintain traction. Had to engage the lockers more than I expected to. With the KO2s, never had those problems.
@@mannyechaluce3814 True, it is, but reliability isn't the only thing people consider when they buy a car. Otherwise we'd all be driving Japanese cars.
Looks Awesome! I'm not a fan of Ford. Back in 86, my buddy and I both purchased a Ford Bronco II. Less than a year the internal engine rusted out due to a leaking intake manifold gasket. I had my oil changed at the Ford dealership and they showed me all the internal rust pouring out of the engine. Ford issued a recall. I immediately got rid of it and purchased something else. My buddy stuck with it. Within 9 months the engine seized, about 15,000 miles. After $3000 and Ford installed a new engine, it never ran right and he lost his shirt. It was a very long time ago, but you can see why I'm hesitant to purchase a Ford product. But this New Bronco really looks tempting though.
Dont know how reliable the engine and electronics are. I love manual trans myself. I think you could buy this bronco hose out cheap spec. 35 / 37 k and drive it 5 to ten years and not suffer a huge depreciation. Not sure its price or how cheap you can spec the 4 door with manual and 4 cyl engine.
@@kevinnorris6558 no the rules are pretty easy going. You just got to give 20% of the total cost including shipping insurance and cost of the car to the government 😑 so if total costs were 10 k I'd pay 2k to the government or the car will be stuck at the docks
Ford needs to give this the 5.0. Reliable, simple, and you can go crazy with the F150 5.0 aftermarket community. I saw a video of a bunch of ford mechanics at a dealer, 90% said across all models, they would order anything with the 5.0. Everyone cited reliability and performance as to why.
I don’t think there was a Bronco in any of the Jurassic parks, but I could be wrong. I’ll always love those iconic Explorer and Wrangler colors though!!
@@ShersGarage Their comparison was in reference to the available 3.6L Naturally Aspirated Pentastar V6, though. Larger displacement and no forced air is going to be a recipe to have the vehicle "feel" like there's tons of immediate torque. I think the 2.3 in the Bronco will be adequate, but the 2.7L V6 with 10 speed automatic seems like a winner. It's relatively powerful vs. competitors even in the 1/2 ton full size truck market.
@@joshuapisani1853 3.6 has less power on paper. Also loses power in higher altitudes. Though Jeep is lighter, so that helps. 2.3 has most of its torque down low but starts to lose juice in higher rpms. I could see this difference when Ford went to 2.3 in the Explorer. It doesn't seem to have much torque higher up compared to 3.5. But definitely feels zippy going around town.
I will not be an early adopter, but in the next 2-3 years we are getting a wrangler or bronco for a fun car. You guys influenced us to get the Palisade. You will help us decide on this once you get time with it. Appreciate the critical and honest reviews.
For those worried about the 4 banger's power, remember...it's turbo. More power is just a tune away. Personally, mine would be the turbo 4 with a manual and the off-road package. Squatch, I think it was called.
@@yanboa Treatment like the F-150. I can't understand why the Mustang as their halo car get's such a cheap interior compared to the F-150 which is their halo truck. I don't know how panel gaps are on other US vehicles from Ford because i live in Europe and only got a 2006 Fiesta ST and a 2010 Mustang GT that had excellent panel gaps and only one misalignment in the interior on the passenger side dash where iirc the airbag is supposed to pop out and only fingernail sized spot on the hood paint wise. But for the price it should have way better quality control. And what's bad on extra plastic if it's done right. You are acting as if none of the luxury cars has any plastics. Even BMWs and VW look cheap nowadays.
Ford is doing well with the Bronco and Raptor lineup. Ford is making toys, selling more than cars or pick-ups. It's something that Jeep and Suzuki understand before, with the Wrangler and Jimny
I am not in trucks, but this look really promising from modularity to inside usefulness, physical controls like manual transmission, physical knobs for climate/audio, excellent visibility ...
There's not much reason to believe it won't be as reliable as just about anything else. The idea that first year models are unreliable is an old trope, it hasn't been true (per actual consumer data) for decades.
“It is not fast” “If you are expecting the 4 popper experience of the Jeep it feels far slower” “This is a direct competitor to the pentastar v6” The Jeep 2.0 has 270 hp and 295 torque at 3950 lbs. The bronco 2.3 has 300 hp and 325 torque at 4300 lbs. Surely that difference can’t be very noticeable in person?
depends where peak power is. if peak tq is high in the rev range it’s going to take. while to get there, and in the process it will feel far slower than a car that has peak power low in the rev range. this is not absolute, but usually the case
That's an old trope that hasn't been true for decades. Actual consumer data shows there is no discernable difference in reliability between first year models and carryover models.
I like what they are doing with the Off-Rodeo program. No one is going to pull the trigger on one of these because of that offer, but Ford understands the importance of a feeling of community around a vehicle like this. Jeepers are notoriously community-driven (the "jeep wave" yada yada), and Ford recognizes that they are decades behind in community building. It's a great way to jump start that.
Disappointed to hear that the 4 cyl feels underpowered. I like the manual with crawler gear and its only available with the 4 cyl.
Yes manual is only on 4 popper. It felt slow. Maybe elevation, fuel, heat who knows. When we get it for more than 4 hours we will go into more detail.
@@savagegeese I'd be curious to see if it had premium fuel in it. Hard to imagine with 4.70 gears, 34.4" tires and a manual would be slow... but who knows! I know the 4 door Badlands 2.7 Sas package I ordered is going to be a blast.
Well, given the stats the four-cylinder should perform adequately. But yes 95 degree weather and humidity do suck the life out of a turbo engine. I have seen other videos such as Porsche reviews that were done in 100 degree and then again at night in 70 degree with totally different performance.

Only the consumers to thank. A very small percentage of consumers buy manual trannys so they don't build them
At least Ford didn’t do what Chevy did with the Blazer
Exactly! I do see the GMC Jimmy name sitting vacant, perhaps GM can right their wrong?

Well I daily a Mustang, so it would be far more practical for literally anything else.
Exactly it looks fantastic
Absolutely, except there is no soft top option, and hardtops are delayed.
I drove the 4 and 6 at the Rodeo. Both were very impresses. I own 95 EB and have used it off road for 20+ years and off road regularly for work with full sized trucks and suv busting our own trails. We put these bronco through some pretty serious rock crawling. Super capable. It makes off roading easy and comfortable for novices. Full disclosure. I have a wildtrak on order and have had reservations since day 1, so I was in before I actually touched one, but after playing with them, crazy impressed.
I think the new Bronco has to be one of the best new vehicles on the market right now
They really got it right and the 2 door just looks amazing I want one
Amazing the qualitiy presentation you got out of that short time available. Looks like a wild ride.
I can't wait to get mine. I have a red two door on order. Hopefully it'll be be built next month.
Weird that I’ve been watching this channel for 8 years now and went from watching for FR-S impressions and now want an Ford Bronco because of you. I didn’t see myself as a Ford guy or an SUV guy!
I pray every night that there's never a "Top 10 anime betrayals" moment between Jack and Mark because you guys are the best duo
"Not the base model" lmao
In the words of Count Dooku: "I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS."
Jeep brought the 392, ecodiesel and plugin hybrid to the wrangler, but only on the 4 door. Getting all the features in the 2 door actually makes me wanna look at this kind of vehicle again.
Very true about off roading on a course vs actually venturing in the back country for camping/fishing/mountain biking or whatever it might be, that's when it's fun
98% will never go off road.
99.9%
@@bigmarkdarula I think the two percent or .01% will call driving on the winery’s gravel driveway “off roading”. In my neck of the woods I see a few Jeeps bought as a third vehicle for flexing fun by the wine moms. I walk by their recycling bins and note the multiple bottles. 😂
@Harry James Pleat Thankfully, my local Panera parking lot doesn't have speed bumps, so I can safely negotiate it in my Mustang and don't need the mall-crawling capabilities of a New Bronco or JL Wrangler to drive on it. ;)
Also: they TIPTOE 😱
and Brake to 3 mph
for Rail road tracks!!
So Ridiculous
85+% will go 'off-road' by driving over curbs of planted medians.

@@ClinicalDecisionYikesYT..... Jesus
@@ClinicalDecisionYikesYT and you?
immediate thumbs up for todd and off-road driving
Blown away with your quality and detail. Thanks for sharing this with the world!
Hopefully Ford has the 10spd auto issues worked out. The one in my F150 seems to get confused and often clanks into gears. And it’s had a software update already. The rest of the truck is awesome though.
Many times learning table clearing fixes strange trans. kicking
Get the manual instead!
Damn, you gotta get that issue fixed and start enjoying that transmission. The 10 spd in my 2018 F150 has been stellar right from day one, whether I'm towing a 6000 lb RV or not towing anything. Good luck!
I can't believe I missed these guys when they were in Austin!
Dude same! 😭
Now I understand why I saw some 2d broncos driving around though.
@@tealruby1 It would have been so awesome to meet the Goose man!
They flew in and out in 24 hours and literally had to spend that entire time picking up their gear, filming, taking back gear, and flying out. They had mentioned that on their podcast because stuff like this makes them miserable but alas, unless more people subscribe with the way RUclips does it's metrics they only way they can afford to keep this channel going is to keep up a burnout pace without more people signing up. Hence, do your part, get more viewers, and maybe next time they can spend more time in Austin.
Huge selling point - For all those times you've had horrible diarrhea just sprayed all over the interior of your vehicle when you just needed floor drains so you could just hose it all down well the new Bronco has you covered!!!
Seriously glad you brought the Jungle Power ad back, I honestly love that bit.
Sounds good for a 4-popper. (Unless I misunderstood and it was the V6 on the road.)
If modern fords were reliable, I would order one of these, but I can’t pull the trigger without seeing some long term tests. Last thing you want in a overland vehicle is it breaking down 50 miles away from the nearest road.
@@Achtzehn83 My first car was an Explorer Sport that I got to 345k, mysecond was a newer Buick LeSabre that ate shit at 180k, so I have an inherit bias for Ford as my current Mustang is at 130k and running like a top.
The day has FINALLY come !I've been looking forward to this review for so long.
Thanks as alway Mark and Jack for your unparalled technical expertise and superb video. I'm not the target demo but for those who are, bravo Ford.
I look forward to the next Ranger. Love the Bronco so far, but not having the ability to tow my track car is a bummer.
Here's hoping they offer the manual...
These things will sell like hotcakes in USA and North America, but not a single person in the rest of the world would want a Ford Bronco over a Toyota Land Cruiser 76/79/150/300.
The Jeep Wrangler 2 door is still the gold standard for this class of SUV. The Wrangler is the Porsche 911 of this segment.
This vehicle is incredible. Ford is doing so many things well right now with the small and large Bronco line, F150 line, f150 lightning, and Mach E Mustang line.
The Jeep Wrangler is proven but not for it’s great reliability!!
They aren't that unreliable.
@@314jeepsnmopars3 the new ones really are.
@@v8_sami not.
I've had very few issues with my 19 JLU Sport.
@@314jeepsnmopars3 Shouldn't have any issues at all with a 2-year-old vehicle
Y’all look happy on your honey moon together :p
Welcome to Texas
As a Jeep Rubicon JLU owner, I must say, I think the Bronco looks fantastic. Chevy’s Blazer is basically a boring airport rental car that I’d be stuck with on a business trip, while the Bronco is something I’d love to take on a off-road trip somewhere.
Waiting for the safety tests results and braking distance. Ford has had a lot of true 5 star safety cars from IIHS. Hopefully braking is competitive too, it’s stellar in the Bronco Sport (escape).
"The wrangler has been proven..." Ye proven to be unreliable lmao
its a jeep thing you wouldn't understand
It's actually been proven to be relatively reliable over the past two generations.
@@Dwealdric lmao ok. I would never own a jeep solely because of the mechanical problems they have. Everyone I know who's owned one has complained.
Jeep has been making wranglers non stop since the beginning of time. If you think Ford can just jump back in the game without issues you’re a fool
Peoples who’s jeeps are “unreliable” don’t know how to build or take care of a car
I’m looking forward to seeing your fully in depth review on the new Bronco. I think Ford absolutely knocked it out of the park with this new body-on-frame Bronco. If only Ford can execute most of their other products just as well as this vehicle (With the exception of the F-150).
The fact these all can come in manual is so refreshing
The Bronco looks and performs so much better with the KO2s. The Goodyears caked up with mud on the Bronco, and struggled to evacuate and maintain traction. Had to engage the lockers more than I expected to. With the KO2s, never had those problems.
I genuinely hope these come to South Africa
I think there's a reasonable chance of it, given its global architecture roots. It would be very useful in so many places.
It will, but why? Toyotal LC is the most reliable vehicle in the planet :D
@@mannyechaluce3814 True, it is, but reliability isn't the only thing people consider when they buy a car. Otherwise we'd all be driving Japanese cars.
Countdown to first Coyote Swap video on RUclips.
I walked by one down the street. It was parked near a Mini Cooper.
It was bigger than the Mini, but not much.
Looks Awesome! I'm not a fan of Ford. Back in 86, my buddy and I both purchased a Ford Bronco II. Less than a year the internal engine rusted out due to a leaking intake manifold gasket. I had my oil changed at the Ford dealership and they showed me all the internal rust pouring out of the engine. Ford issued a recall. I immediately got rid of it and purchased something else. My buddy stuck with it. Within 9 months the engine seized, about 15,000 miles. After $3000 and Ford installed a new engine, it never ran right and he lost his shirt. It was a very long time ago, but you can see why I'm hesitant to purchase a Ford product. But this New Bronco really looks tempting though.
Dont know how reliable the engine and electronics are. I love manual trans myself. I think you could buy this bronco hose out cheap spec. 35 / 37 k and drive it 5 to ten years and not suffer a huge depreciation.
Not sure its price or how cheap you can spec the 4 door with manual and 4 cyl engine.
In the process of importing one to the UK can't wait!
Must be a crap ton of money
@@kevinnorris6558 all said and done about £80K
@@johnennis4586 Do you have to convert it to right hand drive too?
@@kevinnorris6558 no the rules are pretty easy going. You just got to give 20% of the total cost including shipping insurance and cost of the car to the government 😑 so if total costs were 10 k I'd pay 2k to the government or the car will be stuck at the docks
More First Drives please Mark! You guys are the absolute best!
Ford needs to give this the 5.0.
Reliable, simple, and you can go crazy with the F150 5.0 aftermarket community. I saw a video of a bunch of ford mechanics at a dealer, 90% said across all models, they would order anything with the 5.0. Everyone cited reliability and performance as to why.
I'd paint it up in the Jurassic Park colours!
I don’t think there was a Bronco in any of the Jurassic parks, but I could be wrong. I’ll always love those iconic Explorer and Wrangler colors though!!
Oh man this would make some Wrangler fans very upset.
I'm surprised by their take on the power, in the Ranger the 2.3 is a beast. Must be geared differently in the Bronco, or is a big old heffer
They probably only had regular gas in there
Me too. The torque and 300hp of the 2.3 will be the most I've ever had in a vehicle. I think I'll be happy with it.
Bronco is about 300-500 lbs heavier. 2.3 is a beast. I don't see why it wouldn't move the Bronco. Considering Jeep uses a 2.0
@@ShersGarage Their comparison was in reference to the available 3.6L Naturally Aspirated Pentastar V6, though. Larger displacement and no forced air is going to be a recipe to have the vehicle "feel" like there's tons of immediate torque. I think the 2.3 in the Bronco will be adequate, but the 2.7L V6 with 10 speed automatic seems like a winner. It's relatively powerful vs. competitors even in the 1/2 ton full size truck market.
@@joshuapisani1853 3.6 has less power on paper. Also loses power in higher altitudes. Though Jeep is lighter, so that helps. 2.3 has most of its torque down low but starts to lose juice in higher rpms. I could see this difference when Ford went to 2.3 in the Explorer. It doesn't seem to have much torque higher up compared to 3.5. But definitely feels zippy going around town.
I will not be an early adopter, but in the next 2-3 years we are getting a wrangler or bronco for a fun car. You guys influenced us to get the Palisade. You will help us decide on this once you get time with it. Appreciate the critical and honest reviews.
For those worried about the 4 banger's power, remember...it's turbo. More power is just a tune away. Personally, mine would be the turbo 4 with a manual and the off-road package. Squatch, I think it was called.
Now Ford just has to give the same interior treatment to the Mustang.....
S650 is in development
What treatment is that? "Extra Plastic" ?
As an S550 Bullitt owner, that would be awesome and I would be looking to add an S650, probably going to be the last V8, too...
Yes. Yes Yes. The Mustang's interior is bad for the price point. drop 60k on Mach 1 and you cant help but feel screwed
@@yanboa Treatment like the F-150. I can't understand why the Mustang as their halo car get's such a cheap interior compared to the F-150 which is their halo truck. I don't know how panel gaps are on other US vehicles from Ford because i live in Europe and only got a 2006 Fiesta ST and a 2010 Mustang GT that had excellent panel gaps and only one misalignment in the interior on the passenger side dash where iirc the airbag is supposed to pop out and only fingernail sized spot on the hood paint wise.
But for the price it should have way better quality control.
And what's bad on extra plastic if it's done right. You are acting as if none of the luxury cars has any plastics. Even BMWs and VW look cheap nowadays.
Ford is doing well with the Bronco and Raptor lineup. Ford is making toys, selling more than cars or pick-ups. It's something that Jeep and Suzuki understand before, with the Wrangler and Jimny
Suzuki, lol. They don't sell Suzuki is the US anymore because they are garbage. Jimny included.
@@mechmat12345 oh, the ignorant troll!!! Tell that to my Vitara, with 560.000km, working perfectly...
This is like the 65 mustang of our time. Its something people wanted and finally got.
I am not in trucks, but this look really promising from modularity to inside usefulness, physical controls like manual transmission, physical knobs for climate/audio, excellent visibility ...
Looks great, like you said who’s knows how it’s going to be long term. Great vid guys, waiting for the extended version.
There's not much reason to believe it won't be as reliable as just about anything else. The idea that first year models are unreliable is an old trope, it hasn't been true (per actual consumer data) for decades.
@@mechmat12345 Tell that you a Toyota 4 runner 🏃♀️ 🏃
Too bad you can't get the manual with the V6
“It is not fast”
“If you are expecting the 4 popper experience of the Jeep it feels far slower”
“This is a direct competitor to the pentastar v6”
The Jeep 2.0 has 270 hp and 295 torque at 3950 lbs.
The bronco 2.3 has 300 hp and 325 torque at 4300 lbs.
Surely that difference can’t be very noticeable in person?
depends where peak power is. if peak tq is high in the rev range it’s going to take. while to get there, and in the process it will feel far slower than a car that has peak power low in the rev range. this is not absolute, but usually the case
Im not a off road vehicle guy, but this thing is just so cool.
I can't wait to get mine, but I'm going to wait for the 2nd or 3rd year so they can hammer out the first year gremlins.
That's an old trope that hasn't been true for decades. Actual consumer data shows there is no discernable difference in reliability between first year models and carryover models.
Mu gf got a JL and i sold my wrx for one.
I love the way the 2 door solid axels drives. My JL is like a 4x4 sports coupe
lol, no it's not.
Nice to see a cool car currently unobtainable by general public under 50 y.o. without using a loan. Good job 👍
I like what they are doing with the Off-Rodeo program. No one is going to pull the trigger on one of these because of that offer, but Ford understands the importance of a feeling of community around a vehicle like this. Jeepers are notoriously community-driven (the "jeep wave" yada yada), and Ford recognizes that they are decades behind in community building. It's a great way to jump start that.
