In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.
That ad makes me think I gotta have one.

Do you think they will come with floor mats?

Yesterdays teaser was this sticker board... There are many things hidden within. They represent trim levels to packages to equipment. Also the background (swipe able) color shows the vehicle colors.

I will add that someone found a list of codes and somehow deciphered them into rpo's. One of the trim packages is going to be Sasquatch.

I'm sure you can get floor mats... I also think you can get it as a washable tub.

The lists of options this Bronco has is amazing... you can even get it with a fridge/freezer.

The reveal will be Monday...

I assume the "sasquatch package" just means the interior comes pre covered in hair... good time saver for me.

I don't count birthday's anymore...just happy to be looking down at the ground instead of looking up
Maybe it will come with one of these as an option...if you got a fridge/freezer, then a pottie is definitely needed...

A fridge would definitely come in handy to keep my chowdah from spoiling.

It appears that the Bronco will come with a spare tire mounted to a swing gate. Myself and many others would prefer a traditional tailgate. People in the "know" said that tailgate people will not be disappointed. I can't wait to see what they've been cooking up for that.

It looks like it will be available with the 2.3L or 2.7L ecoboosts…. 10 speed auto or 7 speed manual. Four different axle ratios with lockers front and rear with the 4.7 ratio. Sway bar disconnects... 33/35 or 37 inch tires. retractable awning... hard top/modular hard top/soft top/half cab soft top... with sun screens... tube doors... 2 person 4 season roof top tent... rock rails... rock lights... off road lights... brush guards... recovery boards... rotopax… winch... on board air... power inverter... overhead upfitter switch bank and it just keeps going.

It looks to me they went all out... I can't wait to see it and build one.

There’s also talk of a rear driveshaft disconnect so it can do a front dig. Unconfirmed

There is some tech built into it in one of the modes that will lock up the rear brakes independently on super tight turns. The mud slinging video showed that functionality.

They both have their +'s and -'s.

Here in NA we are spoiled by tailgates, abroad the barn door is generally more common. For one thing doors have more room for storage than a gate.

It sure looked like it in one of the clips the released.

I thought that was handled electronically... The transfer case does have a 4A (automatic) position.

There are enough new features and technology in this thing... when you buy one... you get a pass to attend a two day off roadeo driving school.
