There is a link on the home page here to check out the new bronco, tons of pics too.

I don't care for the new bronco.....looks too much like an H2

FoMoCo plans to use the Escape platform and make if FWD with optional AWD. It will have IRS and IFS unless the ared convinced to something else.

I was thinking the same thing, Fishy. Yea, from what I understand its planned to be produced as Rlh explained. Ford has a real opportunity to kick jeep in the **** and instead they are gonna screw up and make another suv.

I remember looking at the Escape when the first come out and I ran off the lot when I found out he had fwd and unibody construction. I figure thats why they're called an Escape.

It just chaps my **** because you'd think somebody over at Ford would pull their head out of their nether regions and realize what made the early broncos popular in the first place. It wouldn't be that hard for them to give jeep a run for their money if they'd stop with this stupid cute ute nonsense. And whats with the No2 butten? Now they are pandering to the stupid Fast and the Furious crowd!?

I think my Camry has more ground clearance than the new Bronco. Sad to see it go so far down hill. But that clip is funny . . . if only they would listen. I forsee every dumb blonde college chick driving one of those. Front wheel drive . . . ha! "Leave the rice for the roads"

I think ford is forgetting what made their superduty trucks so popular. They have it right in the big trucks, why not make a suv to cater to that, too? They have enough suvs for the street. I am not an suv guy, but why not make an offroad hero that will give the rubicon tj a run for its money Ted
