“Built Wild”
Bronco is back! Ford is introducing an all-new Bronco outdoor brand of Built Wild™ SUVs, a unique adventure community for owner and enthusiast engagement, and four off-road driving schools across the United States.
The all-new Bronco family includes a Bronco two-door, first-ever Bronco four-door model and all-new rugged, small SUV, Bronco Sport – the only domestic brand of SUVs with standard 4×4.
Every Bronco model is engineered to deliver thrilling and confident off-road experiences that build on the DNA of the original 1966 Bronco and its racing heritage, with ingenious new updatable technologies and adventure-ready attributes created for today’s outdoor enthusiasts.
“Bronco gave rise to the fun and versatile off-road SUV in 1966, becoming the first enjoyable sport utility vehicle for those who wanted to live, work and play outdoors,” said Jim Farley, Ford chief operating officer. “Like the original, the all-new Bronco family is engineered to take you to epic places, with the capability to deliver confidence on any type of terrain.”

Matt Lasco, VP of Lasco Ford says. “Don’t wait, this is going to be one of the biggest introductions in recent automotive history. We are excited to offer this iconic brand name in a newly designed model that will match Ford’s F-150 as the best selling product in its market.
Local Interest Peaking
Local buyers have been waiting patiently for the Bronco to return to the market place. That interest has been especially high since we learned the Oakland County Parks and Recreation Commission is opening an Off-Road recreation park adjacent to Mount Holly. With the opening of the park delayed until September, it is sure to be a 1st stop on the minds of local Bronco enthusiasts.
