New Bronco concept??
I was watching some offroad videos i found searching google..while watching this one i seen a flash of what appears to be a concept Bronco, that resembles an EB...the video itself is pretty lame, i like the music but beware it has explicit lyrics, so turn down the sound if you dont want to hear that or the kids are around...the flash of the bronco is at 2 minutes 41 seconds for those of you that dont want to suffer through the heeps that cant get up hills....

Nice catch, but that concept is a few years old. I think it was based on the escape flatflorm or something small like that, nothing really has come of it. Maybe if that FJ starts selling (which it has been around here) Ford will take notice and bring something like that out.

I saw this in a concept report too, I also read about it too. I though they said it was on a Ranger chassis, I am not sure.
Remember that rockcrawler concept that was out about 3-5 years ago.
That was ahead of its time too. Now all serious crawlers are 4x4 buggies now.
In another thread,(best ford pickup), I mentioned how FORD sets trends in design and funtion.

Yes, the concept is a few years old, and ford was suposed to come out with it, then more cut backs happened, b/c they weren't selling truck b/c of the gas prices, and they decided they couldn't make it, and then a few months ago, they said they were going to try and get it into production. Who knows....
Either way, it was based on a Ford Escape frame.
It was suposed to have a 2.2L(or something close to that)deisel engine.
The concept had winches front and rear with big d rings shackles on both bumpers.
It wouldn't be to bad, except for the escape frame.

It has appeared at many shows since it's debut in 2004. It is based on a diesel, escape platform. The SLA front suspension limits the basis of it's design. With no frills interior, (hose it out) and lever actuated t-case, it is targeting the heavy off roader. However this buyer would not even consider this platform, so it got back burnered. Rumor has it, it will be re introduced (as a concept) on a larger platform, with many of the toys the off roader seeks from aftermarket companies. Selectable lockers, long travel suspension , 4.0:1 transfer case etc.......
