I agree with your take on the Pricing. My Brother got a MY22 Basesquatch, V6, auto, mod bumper,rock rails, full skids, pull out tailgate. He got every option on his order and it came in at $44k, That is a lot of Bronco for the money. the Everglades was a pretty good value for what you got. I love mine. But why don't you like the Snorkel. I really like it I don't even notice it from the drivers side, you can see it from the passenger side but only out the side window. I really like that it pulls air from a little higher where it is cleaner especially when you are driving with a group of Broncos through silt beds. I think the snorkel should be a stand alone option, or provide the Everglades as a package to the Big Bend

I'm just not a fan of the look. Great function for those in desert areas.

Great video, Tim.

For the Base vs. Big Bend as the entry trim, I agree that one could take the place of the other. I'd lean more to eliminating Big Bend though, nothing against the trim, just my preference. Heritage should have a 2-door option for Heritage's sake, for sure.

I'd be in favor of a 2 door Heritage or a 2 door Everglades. Feel like the Everglades trim is perfect for the area I wheel in mostly. Both have the squared off fenders as well.

I don’t know. The Bronco is entering its 7th year of production with minimal changes overall. It’s pretty much the same machine it was in 2021. The hyped up special editions are really nothing more than silly color schemes.
I think it’s ready for something other than a steering rack and coil overs. Something that’s a bit more edgy in looks and performance.
Until then it just another Bronco. 🫤

I don't mind long-ish production runs with few changes, especially when I have the second MY of the new body style. So My MY22 still looks as fresh (or the same) as a MY26 or 27 I'm OK with that. when we bought or first Suburban in 2005 the next year they had a new body style so mine instantly looked old, our second Suburban 2009 looked like the new ones until 2016

I would like to see the marine vinyl seats and vinyl flooring for the base model.

Heh funny.

I just recorded a similar video today on this very topic. Will have to post it once I finish editing it.

I have no problems with this personally. The Bronco (and vehicles like the Bronco) are heavily reliant on aftermarket modifications, and the more often you change a vehicle the more difficult it is for the aftermarket community to keep up and earn a profit.

I would much rather see minor improvements every year—which is basically what they've been doing—rather than big refreshes every 5-7 years like they do on other vehicles. Of course, at some point you do have to release a new generation, but with the Bronco I think every 10-13 years is perfectly acceptable. That's also on-par with other off-roaders. (Heck the 4Runner just went 19 years before its most recent generational launch.)

I can't wait to see your video.

I couldn’t agree with you more. Zero Bronco’s should have carpet and cloth. They don’t even put carpet in houses anymore, but they do in cars and off- road vehicles? Crazy.
What’s the point?

Yeah but-

The
Chevrolet Suburban has undergone 12 distinct generations of body changes since 1935, evolving from an all-steel "Carryall" station wagon into the modern full-size luxury SUV.

New Bronco is due soon…
