The 2.3L EB is a potent little engine. Basic mods will put you over 450TQ to the wheels without the V8 weight on the front end.
Come on Trav, we need the 2.7 TT, don't try turning to be back to FCA for the third time

I want a Jeep competitor

Hm. That seems rather brash.

Not really. Ive driven the Ford turbo six and its not terrible. Just not for me. Ive owned V8s in everything and that's what Ill continue to buy. If Ford stops making V8s I will stop buying new Fords. The V6 vehicles Ford produces sparks zero interest for me. If the Bronco doesn't come with a V8 I will not care about it at all.

Just to say so? I guess I'm confused.

Well if your confused why a customer wants a V8 Im not sure what to tell you bud.
If you're buying a Ford Bronco for a V8. You're confused.

The light weight of the 4, coupled with the torque will make this a crawling machine.

Ouch, personal attack for what?

I also Lol at the crawl comment. Can’t see a turbo motor being the best way to control a “crawl” but let’s get real, less than 1% of these things are going to crawl rocks. 99% will crawl to the grocery store.

What does a quarter mile have to do with rock crawling...

It doesn't.

It has to do with V8 nut-huggers.

Have you driven one? They're pretty consistent little motors. Pretty impressive.

Imagine if Ford had OJ drive it on stage or come out and pull the cover of it for the reveal ?

and it was white.....

I was just telling some guys it would be awesome to have a big video board of a police chase with a new white Bronco...then have it look like it drive in the building, show up on stage, and OJ hop out with some gloves on.

Yeah, “pretty” and “little” are not what I look for in a new vehicle. Maybe if I was a teenage girl those traits would be “totes cool” ?

What do you currently own? Please include displacement.

Did you drive anything that you wanted from Ford? Or just chalk it up with a pass?

I’ve driven the ecoboost. I wouldn’t buy it. It’s a shame Ford can’t offer their customers a choice of engines in their vehicles.
