new BRONCO???

[roy]

Hey, has anyone seen this???----------------This new truck platform will spawn one more vehicle: a new Ford Bronco. Secretly (until now), Ford has been preparing an answer to the success that is the Wrangler, and the threat that is the Hummer H4. The Bronco will stay true to its original roots and be a capable off-roader with two solid axles, true 4x4 and a truck frame. After the 2004 Bronco concept which was built on the Fiesta platform, many diehards were worried the Bronco would become a soft-roading lifestyle SUV for the urban youth market. While I and some others saw potential in this move, it seems Ford is playing it safe with the Bronco name and affixing it to a true, rugged off-road capable SUV. Like the Wrangler, the Bronco is to feature a removable top and folding windshield. It could debut alongside the F-100 in 2010, or a little later.


The Bronco is to make an honest return to its off-road roots. Ford is aiming at the Wrangler and the upcoming Hummer H4 with this new truck.:biggthumpup: http://www.autosavant.net/2008/04/ranger...anger.html

The 2004 concept was not built an the Fiesta platform it was the Escape platform. Front wheel drive soccer mom curb hopper. The picture is from that concept. I truly hope that is not the intended production version. It looked like the robocop version of the Bronco guys gone bad.
