Any Possibility that Jim Oaks may be able to get one of the new Bronco's when they come out to show off for TRS?

Since Ford was kind and let Jim borrow a new Ranger for 6 months, what's the odds they'll let him borrow a Bronco for 6 months? Would really be cool especially if they come out with the smaller "Bronco 2" again. I still love my 88 Bronco 2 so it would really be cool to see the new ones from an actual driver's and offroader's perspective. Really enjoyed Jim's take on the new Ranger as far as its offroadability.

Not likely, but not impossible either

Dang, was hoping for a more positive answer HAHA!! Would really be cool if TRS could sport the new Mini-Bronco since their leader is currently sporting the new Ranger.

Highly unlikely.

The Bronco II is overlooked by most. It's not even looked at as part of Bronco's history.

I doubt that Ford will even remember the Bronco II fan base when the Bronco is launched.

Too bad, because I actually enjoy driving my Bronco 2. Eventually I'd love to get another 80's Ranger as well, but I've settled in fine with my 88 EB B2. Not sure how they seem to have forgotten the Bronco 2 since it was the pioneer to their current "Explorer". I like the Bronco 2 more than I ever cared for the Explorers.

Sadly even the aftermarket seems to not know anything about the Bronco 2 :(.
