The “Bronco Sport” does about the same for the Bronco brand as the “Mach E” does for the Mustang brand.
If Ford were to bring some of the Bronco goodies to the Ranger I'd have to go that way. Geez, a 7-speed stick shift (6 street plus a 6.6:1 granny first) on 35" tires, front & rear lockers, 3:1 t-case, 4.70 axle gears and a factory crawl of 93:1.Bronco may win me over
But then they would only offer it with heated/cooled leather seats, a 14" center touch screen and a double cab with a 6 ft bed for 2.5x the cost of a base RangerIf Ford were to bring some of the Bronco goodies to the Ranger I'd have to go that way.

Take my money.
I believe that Toyota should be really concerned at the moment, but they seem to be in a state of denial. I believe that most people are saying what you are saying. The choice is either a Bronco or Rivian. Judging by Cherry Creek, the other answer seems to be the new Defender as well.The full size Bronco is amazing, and I would absolutely get one if I wasn’t getting a Rivian. The eventual EV Bronco may win me over! These were some Broncos (not EV) we saw testing on Loveland Pass last year.

You know what's interesting is Ford lets you order the locker as a stand-alone option (X73). So you can build a base XL even with one. You cannot do that with Tacomas. You have to get a TRD Offroad or Pro to get a locker. And to get TRD OR you have to start with at least an SR5.But then they would only offer it with heated/cooled leather seats, a 14" center touch screen and a double cab with a 6 ft bed for 2.5x the cost of a base Ranger
You can even delete the box and get one delivered as just cab-and-chassis, which they called option 86Q. I'm pretty sure using 86 was intentional
I've always heard the term "86'd" but I never knew where it came from so I had to google it:
The term originated during the Korean war, a reference to the F-86 fighter jet; when an F-86 shot down an enemy plane, it was 86'd. The United States also has a Uniform Code of Military Justice that has an Article 86: Absence Without Leave, a.k.a AWOL. The term was derived from military shorthand.
I feel like I know what this implies, but have no idea what it means!He also posed with his lca on a rock for posture🤣
At least we're in a hand basketThat's a $78k car? This world has gone to hell in a handbasket.
