I'd imagine it's going to be more like the new Chevy Blazer. There'll be more advertisements featuring some dumb housewife hauling a bunch of dorks to soccer practice in it than there will be of it leaving anything paved.

Cool Ford Wrangler,
Considering the worst part of a wrangler is being a FCA product this actually makes a difference.

It looks like a chinese knockoff of a wrangler with an FJ face lift.
I agree the 4 door looks very oddly proportioned. I've seen pics of a 2 door version (not 100% sure if they are legit) and it looks far betterThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
I was hoping for a bit better considering how much time Ford has had to copy Jeep. That said it is too soon to tell, but it doesn't look that great in these pics.
That's an actual picture of it? That is better than I was expecting (another soccer mom CUV) but am still horribly disappointed.
Hey look, it is the Jeep Renegade-Wrangler?
Can't blame them though. Wranglers are huge money makers. I wonder if FCA is going to sue them though, lol.
I'm a little disappointed as the C&D renders were so much nicer as this is essentially a Wrangler with the front end of a Renegade. Even Kia thinks that's a blatant ripoff. I suppose we will soon find out it the market for these vehicles is big enough to support the same product from two manufacturers. I would imagine initial sales will be good only to taper off once the novelty wears out.
Supposedly it is. You can see the 2 door version in the first picture background with the top off. I think these are the actual Bronco, but cant say for sure. I like what gen Bronco they tried to take inspiration from, but agree about the Wrangler comparison.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Always so hard to judge looks from photos on the internet. I find I need to see them on the roads for a few months before I can really say how I feel. Anyway, year 1 sales will be driven by pent up fanboi "bleed ford blue" kind of people, and after that, if it is mechanically good, it'll still sell, and if it ain't, it won't.
I think we all just accept how the jeep looks because it looks like a jeep. I don't think it's anything but ugly from an aesthetic perspective though. This will be fine for the same reasons.

Just another car that is trying to piggyback off a successful name, but is nothing like the original. Whatever.
What’s so wrong with it?

I think a bit of lift and larger wider rubber would look great! Same as a Jeep lol
How long before @shakalaka ?
Apparently according to a source at Ford I read they will have a 200+ page catalogue of accessories and customization parts on release. Can't find anything about power plants but id guess the baby boost, and maybe later on a ST version with the 3.5 EB?
EDIT: ST
Need a 6.2 Raptor version.
I seriously considered a 6.4 Hemi swap for my Jeep, would have been awesome and way cheaper than my truck haha.
