Yet. I read somewhere that Ford may offer it sometime soon.

A good start would be a focus on reliability.

It is going to get interesting...Jeeps are the County Vehicle of Southern Maryland and there really has not been an open air alternative until now.
It will be reminiscent of the Mustang versus Camero debates.

Jeep will finally have a challenger -assuming the quality is there for the Bronco. Maybe --maybe a little sanity in pricing will occur due to competition. My sense of it is the the Gladiator has not sold as well as expected though the virus clouds that a bit --but even BC it didn't seem to get out of the gate as strongly as one would have thought. The V8 Jeep won't do much to stem the Bronco tide.
It will be interesting to see how the Broncos impact on other SUV sales --the Bronco 2 especially.

Slight hijack: Does anyone have first hand experience with the new Ford Ranger?
After not having my Tundra for a month or so (Daughter moved to Charleston) I can't believe how unnecessarily big it is. When I no loner need to tow I'll be looking to downsize. I talked to a guy at the Shell station yesterday and he spoke highly of it. Looks great as well. PM if need be and thanks in advance

With all the attention & excitement for the new Bronco, I wonder if Chevy is regretting bringing back the Blazer name with such an invisible grocery getter.

So far all I have seen is that they are open to feedback.

We have a guy's Colorado parked next to our 1st Gen Durango right now. It is larger and significantly taller. At the store we had it parked next to a 2020 Silverado and the hood on the pickup was higher than the mirrors on the Durango. Everything has gotten very tall now.

And yes, the inside has a smaller cockpit than our Durango for some reason. They look nice on the outside. Probably one of the better looking GM trucks in some time.

you know ... it's almost like a team of smart people asked themselves what does the target market really want?
refreshing to see that |
