DOTS: Suddenly, a wild Bronco appears

[Shop-Teacher]

A real Bronco, not a Sport. I've seen tons of Bronco Sports, but this was a the first proper new Bronco I've seen in the flesh. I whipped a U-turn to get another look. I like it. Poor thing already has some fender damage though.

@shop-teacher all the ones I've seen are also that colour, or the cement gray.

[Someoneatacura]

Apparently a new bronco in the area rolled on some local off roading trails.

@CarsOfFortLangley is wanted for questioning.

[Shop-Teacher]

@dash-doorhandle-and-bondo Figures nobody has the stones to buy a real color.

I have been seeing a base model Ranger, steel wheels and all, in a lovely bright blue on my morning commute lately. It always manages to turn my head.

[CarsOfFortLangley]

@someoneatacura same as it ever was. The amount of crashes on local "trails" (FSR's) would shock people.

@shop-teacher

Too true—I saw a yellow Cyber Orange one the other day and it looked fantastic.

[WhoIsTheLeader]

@shop-teacher Turns out they look great in blue. Rear end is a little fussy but I like it. I'm betting the two doors will be rare though.

Looks like the hood's buckled from a frontal impact too...
Whoops, never mind, I just fell for the optical illusion again! DANG IT I'm still not used to the look of those tie-downs.

[A Former User]

@shop-teacher huh. I don't think I like it. That fabric roof and the rear window make me think it sounds like a flapping sail on the highway.

The more I see pictures of these, the more I don't like it.

[MUSASHI66]

@shop-teacher More I see of these, less I like them. That particular angle with that roof and no Sasquatch package just looks so blah to me.

I’m yet to see the two door. I hope it looks better.

For sure. I'd really like to get a base model 2-door, with a manual. I bet it basically wouldn't depreciate at all.

For that exact reason, I not only did a double take when I saw it in person, but I did another double take when I cropped the picture before I posted it.

I would definitely get the hard top.

[flatisflat]

@shop-teacher No way, someone bought an SUV that is too large of a car for them to comfortably maneuver and they've already tagged something with it......whodathunk....

[dtg11]

@shop-teacher I’m ready for when they get deeply depreciated and I can buy one as a trail beater

Don't hold your breath!

[dtg11]

@shop-teacher if it follows the typical Ford path, I’ll be fine. If it follows, the typical off-roader path, it’ll be about 20 years

[Dr. Zoidberg]

@shop-teacher oink!

[Shop-Teacher]

@dtg11 I expect it will be option B.
