Having now started to see these pop up around town and at the dealerships, I must say all my excitement for this vehicle has completely dissipated!!! First of all, it's much smaller than I'd expected, and I got to thinking that maybe that is the Baby Bronco?? I don't really know, but I do know it is nowhere near the size of the Wrangler! The Bronco was a big truck back in the 80's, and I'd hoped it would be something of substantial size this time around again. With its classic look, I guess Ford went more for the original size as well as look. Can't go after the Wrangler market though if only half the size!!!! Having seen it in person, I must admit I no longer have this vehicle on my list to purchase. Ford had a chance to really do something huge with this vehicle and finally get their stock performing better, but I fear they've badly missed the mark and will not cut into Wrangler's following at all. Having just purchased (literally this past weekend) a gently used 2011 Jeep Liberty - my first Jeep - I remain firmly entrenched in one day owning a Gladiator (I prefer pickups and had always wanted a Wrangler....until the Gladiator arrived). I was stoked that Ford was bringing back the Bronco and loved the look and options of it online................in person, to me, it is a phenomenal disappointment!!!! And this is coming from both a stock holder and a person who has had 3 Ford's previously. Ford was actually my domestic brand of choice....
