    I was getting 18-21 before the lift and tires. Now I'm getting 16-18 lifted on 33's. Still not great, but not as bad as I expected. This is loaded down with a Jurassic Park roof basket.

    I think soft top is standard on lower trims and hard top is optional

    I am trying to figure out what they mean by post-impact braking. After you impact something I think you will stop.

    Especially a good shot of the 35's and topless.

    We're still talking Broncos, right?

    To keep the car from driving itself away if the driver is incapacitated (the transmission is probably in drive but the driver may be unable to press the brake), and to reduce the amount that the car is thrown around in a multi impact collision.

    "My girlfriend bought the cheapest piece of shit in the manufacturer's line up and I'm indignant that it didn't receive the same build quality as the top of the line model that costs 5 times as much" The cheapest Fords are shit, The cheapest Fiat (Chrysler/Dodge) are shit. The cheapest GM are super shit.

    I’m a Toyota guy. Owned 5 Toyota’s bought new. Will keep the Tacoma till it rusts apart. Loved the FJ, but for whatever reason it was easy to part with.

    This will be my first Ford in over 30years and the last was really my wife’s. I don’t even consider Ford when looking at new vehicles. The Bronco is definitely stealing a purchase from another manufacturer in my case.

    So will the body be aluminum like the F150s? That’s a big part of the efficiency of the F150. Saves 700lbs or something.

    But why throw a shit fit when someone brings up a counter point to your argument that IFS is shit? Followed by an argument about people wanting bolt on kits, then saying that SAS is amazing. Like that isn’t super custom expensive fab work? That also could be done to the new bronco like you want to do to your tacoma. Also arguably the same amount of money and effort could be spent on a wicked custom IFS as SAS on Tacoma’s or broncos.

    If anyone wants to see “full send” on IFS Toyota, check out this 1st vid below. All the classic mistakes are made by the green Hilux, but the IFS CVs hold. Makes hair stand up on my neck. Maybe Ford will be using Hilux CVs on the Bronco?

    https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_BvLyVw8BNo

    Also.......for 4WD video enthusiasts, these teenage Aussie bogans on the Adam Green feed have the best channel on the tube. Makes Ronny Dahl and and the 4WD Action boys look like mall-crawlin grandpas.

    vvvvv The gas powered Patrol bouncing the limiter at the 16:00 minute mark is totally insane.

    Ya but 150hp and 31s don’t break CVs lol or at least very often.

    Man if you think that Patrol is insane you should come out with us!

    I still think that fella was right on the line of destruction. A couple times when he lifted a front wheel at speed and it came back down, I was waiting for the “click” sound of a CV snapping.
