I watched that. The Bronco is a serious vehicle. It’ll sell a lot

Imagine if it had the optional 35s on with proper tires

It comes with 35’s off the factory floor with certain Spec levels. Unfortunately with BF’s. But you can never have the best of both worlds. Luckily the tires are a easy upgrade

Just to correct the two posts above.

They took THREE Bronco's on the Rubicon Trail.
One was a Sasquatch 4 door that had 35's - the other two had 33" MT's.

I only saw two. One with BF and one with Goodyear. Old age...

The fact that I didn't see a 3rd Bronco in a report that wasn't posted on this post.

It has an interesting feature to help it turn sharper than a 130 Defender, very cool.
Flex is overrated
