Such corn binder, very wow.

Actually, it'll probably be pretty good. Just not what everyone thinks it will be.

Solid axles...
2-door....
Smaller than a 4Runner....
Removable roof...
Offroad prowess to match Wrangler...

It'll be a great all-around SUV with excellent off-road capability, but butthurt will flow freely from enthusiasts. Mark my words.

"everyone" are just keyboard warriors on 199x rangers pretending like they are best cars in the world. As you and I and most on this forum know what everyone claims they "want" on the net is never the reality,
V8 supercharged manual wagons don't sell.

Butt hurt will flow from K5 blazer bois saying how their 350 powered relics are the best thing since sliced bread.

however the person that will buy is a bro-grammer or a barista with a trust fund to stand out from the crowd 3 series etc.

I think if they get it out before the gas crunch hits they can have a huge success considering how under-served that market is at the moment.

I think it will have some kind of trick roof. Not sure about solid front and not sure if it matters, and I do think it'll be off road capable enough to satisfy most. I am willing to bet 99% of wrangler owners don't need the solid fronts either, but FCA can't afford the backlash of losing the key selling feature.

The Bronco doesn't have to compete with the wrangler from that perspective. It just has to "look rugged" be "somewhat offroad capable" and "uniquely styled"

Yep, pretty much dis.

Mechanical work not pictured: Replaced the Radiator, starter, ignition, ignition coil, belts, spark plugs, spark plug wires, rebuilt the transmission, alternator, removed AC, gas tank, exhaust, so basically everything. that's a lot of work... might as well build the car from scratch at that point which is the issue with almost everything from pre 1990 unless that was done already, or super anal low mileage anal owner.

Epic Job doe... but a solid 30k are in that car. Which makes it tough to justify over say something like a future Bronco or Wrangayler.

This is why accountants don't buy such things. You buy it because it's fun and awesome, not because it works in Microsoft Excel.

Seems like an epic life to live. Your car modz are actually PAID for by 's watching your video. And you can do whatever you want since that's how you make your moneyz

[ChrisoftheNorth]

I watched until he claimed it was the first VIN ever built with a 10-speed.

There were probably 100 salable pre-production test cars produced before yours that have VINs and will be sold.

:douche:

I can't imagine. It's that this is a life, doe. Not in a jealous way (well, kinda) but in that society is dumb enough to pay people to do this much worthlessness.
