The only 4 door Bronco should be the Centurion. If Ford wants to bring the Bronco back it needs to be a 2 door, otherwise is just an Expy.

I don't see the point of a crew cab Raptor either. A performance truck does not match up with big and heavy.

The Charger should not be 4 door either. It was a muscle car and now its basically a boring sedan.

I love Centurions both Bronco and F150 etc. I meant the a regular Bronco should be 2 door and maybe an option for 4 door. If the Bronco is only available in 4 door it seem pointless to me.

Centurians were pretty cool, other then the solid front axle. But for some reason i dont think ford would bring back that name plate.

Centurion was not actually part of Ford. It was a conversion company.

Only the 66-79 Broncos had the solid front axle, and everyone knows those Broncos were not good. Centurian C350 trucks had a d60 front, nothing cool about dana 60s.

the solid front axle comment was for the centurion. broncos haven always been 2dr, if they made it a 4dr it would be huge and not be that great off-road. Point is, i would hate to see a new bronco be like the H2 was to the original hummer.
