Ya the concept pics are from a few years back. I want to say 2010. But the article speculation is current "information"

I want them too make it, but think it's kinda fugly. I give it a .5% chance of making it to production though.

If they won't bring a small Ranger-like truck back, I doubt they would build that thing.

I like the way it looks.

Probably a hoot to drive.

But short wheel base + lots of Ecoboost horsepower and high center of gravity = idiots rolling them when they lose control.

If Ford decides to make this, I forsee lots of lawsuits from nimrods who don't deserve to drive such a fine machine.

I say Ford brings back the Bronco so the off-road guys can have that and let SVT bring back the Lightning.

Ford is in a phase where they are becoming less of a car company and more of a technology company right now -- don't hold your breath to see anything with tradition or soul in their line-up anytime soon......

That ole Bronco concept needs to be burned to the ground and never brought up again.

I highly doubt you'll see the concept Bronco from years back. What you MIGHT see is something more like this:


I doubt Ford will take the Bronco name plate serious again. The old Broncos were a pieced of equipment, not a bloated pig that a soccer mom would buy. This is yer soccer moms Bronco. This would sell in numbers that the bean counters are looking for.

But it does look almost exactly like the (friggin' FWD) Explorer with a tweak here and there.

This is all that matters for a car manufacturers anymore. Porsche makes 2 SUVs and a sedan and Ferrari makes a AWD hatchback. The days of the auto industry being run by car guys is long gone. The shareholders replaced them with accountants since they can turn a bigger profit. There might be a few boutique manufacturers out there like Paggani or Noble that make cars for the sake of making cars but bring your checkbook cause they ain't cheap.
