It's the lighting, it's not that much different than Magnetic that exists right now and that color looks good out in natural light. Not many paint colors look good in that lighting, trust me, I had to do it for 5 years. I think Ford missed the opportunity...theres a gray in the catalog called Dark Matter Gray...looks fantastic....and a perfect partner to Antimatter Blue.....and , seriously wheres my Army Green and Lead foot Gray?.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a backup camera mounted just above the license plate on my F-150. It's really good for lining up the hitch with the trailer, but it's only passable for anything else.

Use it for lining up the occasional trailer and using my mirrors for regular backing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Matter. Reminds me of a PHENOMENAL song by one of my favorite bands. One of the best songs Steven Wilson ever wrote.

Yes, I've noticed the eye popping colors on Tacomas. And their impressive resale value. Just saw a 2016 Tacoma with 50,000 miles listed fof $29,900. Unbelievable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoolScoop Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 (edited) Shows quick and easy swapping of parts for the SEMA build with squared off wheel openings plus Q&A with Ford designers, including their own model and tranny preferences... plus it sounds like dealers will be getting accessorized Broncos for their customers to see in "the first part of next year".

probowler Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 A classic grill more true to the original bronco would be awesome. Would also love a tailgate conversion kit. I love that you can go from an open-air experience in the summer and close it up nice and tight for winter. Also love how you can keep your nice, stock body panels for the streets and buy special fenders and doors specifically just for the trail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can impress your friends with heavily battle scared bumpers, grill, fenders, fender flares, tubular doors, rock guards, wheels and tires... then take the wife to a fancy resteraunte in a shiny Bronco with perfect stock components and running boards! It's going to take a whole lot more than a Hemi to update the Wrangler, lol! Edited December 19, 2020 by CoolScoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-dubz Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 The grille customization will be cool. I’d like to see the bronco script on the fenders and with bronco written in the current grille in a different font, I don’t think they would match well. A custom grille that says FORD like the original, or just doesn’t say anything at all would match pretty well with the bronco script.

Hopefully some more retro versions. While I've never been a huge OG Bronco fan, the new one occupies this strange space for me of missing what I like best from the original bronco and the fullsize broncos. I think they could have done a better job by more closely resembling the original, but it's hard to fault ford when the end result is so amazing. The modular customization feature is epic. Personally I'm waiting for future refreshes or special editions to see if there's something more to my liking. It will give me time to save up anyway.
