Ford is trying so hard to compete with Jeep. It's kinda cringe honestly. It would be less awful if they didn't call them Broncos.

Someone should tell Ford that jeeps have solid front axles.

Three four door Bronco builds, two Bronco Sport builds and NO two door Bronco? What's up with that? Bad decision to not include a regular two door Bronco.

If you want a reliable machine off road you need a solid front axle. CV shafts have too many problems, especially when lifted. IMO...

When I was out there, one of my friends asked, "Who will be the first to market to make a solid axle conversion?"
Curious to see who does that.

Too funny.... I don't hear a lot of people saying Toyota needs a SA on a taco, 4R, or FJ Cruiser. I see those wheeled all over the place. As a former owner of 2 JK's , the 2dr being wheeled fairly hard in mostly stock form, I don't see the problem. Sure it would have been cool to see a bronco with a SA but it probably doesn't need it. The bronco will be a better rig than the fiat will or could ever be.
