Seven-speed Manual for the New Bronco? Could Be

Friend of TTAC, Bozi Tatarevic, had some GREAT NEWS about the upcoming Bronco this morning. In a post published by Jalopnik, he detailed what seems to be an airtight theory that the Ford We’ve All Been Waiting For will be available with a seven-speed manual transmission.

  • Redapple2 Subaru Forester is the only small SUV to earn a good rating in the updated test.As I have said 10 times. Class best resale, safety, quality, features, outward visibility, All wheel drive system, and a 9 square foot sunroof -hate all you want. clearly the best. Two others, the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4, are rated acceptable. The Ford Escape, Hyundai Tucson and Jeep Compass earn marginal ratings, while the Chevrolet Equinox, Mazda CX-5, Mitsubishi Outlander and Volkswagen Taos are all rated poor and poor, deadly, unacceptable. Add in low mount low light producing headlamps and......... kill away.
  • Kwik_Shift_Pro4X I prefer the "Classic" look along with getting a reg cab, RWD with 8ft bed and 5.7 V8.
  • Redapple2 I like the classic ram. Kinda like vinyl vs CD. Low cost. Low frills. Low bs. Simple controls.
  • MKizzy A price bump? Give it a couple of bad months + an unpredictable Musk mood swing and the M3 Performance could be selling at Altima prices.
  • ToolGuy I don't think it is fair that the other car companies have to compete with VW.
