I don’t normally post memes, but had to on this one. I always welcome competition, it makes everyone stronger. In this case, GM heard the Bronco was coming back so they quickly threw something together to be first to market. I’ve always enjoyed studying corporate car culture in the US. GM’s strategy has always been “a fast follower” and that is ok, but they need to stick to that strategy here. Go back redesign the Blazer to be legit competition to the Bronco and Jeep, otherwise they will miss out on a huge market.

Only negative comments I am finding are coming from the Jeep faithful.

The new Bronco checks off boxes Jeep hasn’t even contemplated.

Probably why they have most of the negative comments.

Jeep has lived in "white space" for FAR too long. Complacent is a word that comes to mind.

We rented a new Rubicon last summer in Montana, I was FAR from impressed in ANY way, and was left with zero motivation to own one.

Should be interesting.

If you are considering one you better make your reservation ASAP. The reservations numbers have been HUGE.

I really like this E-trac mount system on the dash, it’s going to be very handy for phone and camera mounts.EB16953D-2675-4900-92AB-974333030A75.png

Heavily considering one as well.

The biggest issue I have right now is the Sasquatch package not being available with a manual.

Yeah, that's one of those "what an obvious solution, why hasn't anyone else done it" type of thing.

I don’t think they share DNA. It’s just funny.

Every “Bronco” bolt is an invitation to add, change, or invent something... I like that! 😎2397D44E-7289-49A9-B98D-54355E4AEA0E.png742B3814-DD96-4333-9D6F-CCF7E2FFDC99.png38774376-EE49-43E6-BD58-DDC5B4AC56D4.png

That looks like it would be a pain to clean around. Probably cut the xxxx out of your fingers.

I like the style of the new Bronco but it is overpriced.

Relative to what? A new Jeep is comparably priced model to model.
