Lasco Ford, Fenton, MI — June 3, 2021
You’ve likely seen the Bronco Sport traveling around the streets and highways of Southeastern Michigan. The Full-Sized version of the iconic model will be hitting the lot in a matter of weeks. Today, at Lasco Ford, Fenton area Bronco fans got a chance to get hands-on with the 2021 Ford Bronco. By all accounts the return of the legendary SUV was well-received.
Classic Bronco Looks
Too many times a rework of an all-time classic strays far from the original appearance. Ford Motor Company got this one right. The 2021 Bronco looks like a Bronco, true to traditional lines and vehicle footprint. With all the new safety regulations and equipment required on today’s vehicles, Ford engineers put them into a great-looking package that says “get behind the wheel.”
With a classic Bronco sitting next to the reborn version of the model, it was easy to see the nod to tradition. Ford designers delivered on the promise of “Born Wild,” all-new inside and out but with classic lines molded around the “Look” Bronco lovers hold dear.
Reactions
Comments overheard all through the event were consistent. “I Love It.” “Perfect.” “I can see myself driving this.” “Bold and Beautiful.” Some visitors immediately climbed inside to get the feel. “Great visibility.” “I love sitting up high and being able to see more of the road.” “I can put three child seats in the back, awesome.” Others stood staring, almost mesmerized by the appearance.
Timm and Deborah Mooney were some of the early arrivals, driving to the dealership to get their first look at the new model. Deborah said she owned an early model Bronco, back in the day, and was sorry to see the vehicle leave the marketplace. “It’s everything I hoped for,” said Deborah. “It’s got the classic look, it’s beautiful, we are so excited to get on the Reservation List.”
Tech Stuff and Easter Eggs
We could spend all day talking about the technology engineered into the 2021 Ford Bronco. Let’s just say it’s built by the same people that produce the country’s best-selling pickup, the Ford F-150.
If you must know the ins and outs of Engine, Transmission, Axle Ratio, Horsepower, Torque, Towing Capacity, and every other spec, then stop into Lasco Ford at 2525 Owen Road in Fenton. Talk to a Bronco Specialist, the “Tech Stuff” is impressive and Ford promises the ride and drive will only add to the Fun of Bronco ownership. The reservation list is growing fast, get your name on it now.
Speaking of Bronco Fun. Ford designers have built-in some hidden “Easter Eggs” to surprise and entertain owners. We will only reveal a couple to start you on your search. Open the fuel door and check out the representations of previous Bronco models on the plastic housing surrounding the fuel intake. See if you can find the bottle opener cut into one of the interior steel supports.
If smiles equate to enjoyment, there is a load of serious fun to be had with the all-new Bronco. Climb aboard.
