I read that Ford made Goodyear move "Wrangler" to the backside of the tire on new Bronco's ordered with that tire option.;D

Gotta keep your customer happy!

I mean...ok, but I find that a bit trivial and childish.

Trivial but that's what marketing is all about. Jeep would have a field day if Broncos came with Wrangler on the outside of the tires.

You wouldn't want a Mustang with "Camaro" tires on it, would you?

LOL!

No other good place to put this sorry. Just signed for a 2020 Ram laramie 4x4. Need a truck, no good used ones around for used prices, everyone wanted newish pricing, so I bought new with pretty good discounts and zero apr. Traded trusty jeep in, sorry to see that go, only real 4x4 in the house will be the EB. Newe Bronco will have to wait for the Ram to put some miles on her. Lots of great motors coming down the line sorry i couldnt wait. Even with that, it's a 5.7 hemi, with MDS and etorque, uses a supercharger looking electric motor to boost torq over 400 something. And did I mention it's a v8 and sounds like one. Their 3L diesel was just to clunky at lower speeds, although similar accel up the on ramp. Look for me to go all in on 2030 version:)

I did a similar thing. I got a new travel trailer and my F-150 was marginal at towing it. So I bought a 2020 F-350 6.7 diesel a month ago which took the wind out of the sails of getting a new Bronco. I still have my Rubicon. In a couple of years when they actually have new Broncos on the lot to drive and ordering is reasonable I'll look into them again. The F-350 was just higher priority now and boy, it's an awesome truck!

Nice very impressed with the 5.7 with etorq and look forward to small trailer camping again. <5000lbs, but truck has highest tow of any 150/1500 at about 12,000 something.

Canceled my Outer Banks Bronco order, need a tow vehicle for my 69 Bronco more than another garage vehicle. Maybe in a few years they will have a Bronco that can tow as much as the current Ranger.

Different Bronco culture immediately. Truck guys will be buying them but we will be easily outnumbered by these new adventure seeker types. A whole subculture will be created and an aftermarket to support it. Think grumper grills, goofy JC Whitney accessories, and lots of girl power stuff.
