Yeah saw that, was going to post it but didn't want to give haters more fuel. They are probably testing suspension components and most likely not anything close to what the body will look like.

Agreed, that looks more like a chassis mule over anything else. Interesting to see a 6 lug wheel on there too......

Encouraging

I think it’s a test mule. I like the short wheelbase. Looks like it wouldn’t be much bigger than the original bronco.

I'll wager that the front clip is close to the production Bronco which may give some clues as to what the next gen Ranger will look like.

i sure hope the Bronco looks nothing like this other than ride height. Seems more like just a basic Ranger in camo though. What you can see of the grill looks like what is currently offered.

Nobody has noticed the massive fail by ford? That's for sure no solid axle up front on that mule. Didn't think ford would screw up the new bronco and I was dead wrong. No IFS bronco for me, ever. I'm not the only one either. Jeep Wrangler dominance will continue unrivaled.

I’m sure we all noticed it. Certainly not ideal but let’s wait until we see the real thing to know for certain.

Don't jump the gun Ford may just pull off a competitor for the wrangler. That's what there supposed to do. Pray they pull it off. But don't hold your breath. Lol lol
