Stand Alone Sub Forum for Bronco Sport

I looked over where the Escape Sub Forum is and could find a sub Forum for Bronco Sport. Maybe it should be right next to the 2021 Bronco so that folks know where to post up.

Makes sense to have a separate sub forum because the vehicles are unrelated except for name. I can't see how keeping the forum combined will make any sense once the big Bronco is available because the latter lends itself to serious off roading and modifications, and discussions pertaining to those topics.

The big Bronco? Looks very cool from what I've seen; I'm in the Detroit area so I've seen a few on the road in recent weeks. It's very tempting but it's also clear that we need to wait for prices to settle down I probably won't be in the market for a couple years at least, so the timing might work well.

I used to have more pre-production info on all Big 3 vehicles and get occasional personal tours of vehicles in camo, but I've gotten so old that my engineer friends have largely retired from their auto company jobs, or have been bought out.

Too bad most people still don't know the difference between the BRONCO and the BRONCO SPORT.

The same goes for the FORD GT and the FORD MUSTANG GT. Does Ford really want to confuse it's 500,000 supercar with a 35,000 pony car? If I ran FoMoCo it would have been called the Ford GT-40... and there would be a lot fewer lawyers involved. Alas I am just a shareholder and customer, but in my opinion - muddy waters don't elevate the brand.

At least people can come here and see the unique forums so that is helpful.

I’ll give you the fact that people didn’t know enough about the vehicle that they are buying to realize that a Bronco and a Bronco Sport are completely unrelated platforms. However, I don’t think people are confusing the GT with a Mustang GT. My guess is they didn’t want to resurrect the GT-40 name.

They can`t use the GT40 name ; https://fordauthority.com/2020/06/th...lled-the-gt40/ and I agree Bronco / Bronco Sport decision was bad .

A quick look at the dimensions of the 2006 Ford GT shows a height of 44" . So perhaps they could have called it Ford GT44?
