LOL, bias much? The Defender has more utility, more powerful engines, matches or bests the Bronco in most key off-road numbers... So I am going to call it for the Bronco because I like the way it looks.
However, we don't know enough details. How experienced was the driver? Was the driver intentionally emulating a novice driver who might not air down or use the swaybar disconnects?
What are you talking about?? Lucky 8 is doing ground breaking work on the new Defender! They managed to get 18s to fit!!!!! LolThe only area the Defender really bested the Bronco was towing. If towing is a big concern then it's an easy choice. But to me, that goes back to they are two different vehicles. You want to tow your boat to the reservoir, pull a camper to a campsite, take your snowmobile to Yellowstone and maybe do some Overlanding then it would be hard to beat the Defender. When it comes to towing the Bronco, like the Jeep, would most likely be the towee, not the tower. Being pulled behind an RV. To be used as a source for fun once you reach your destination, not the other way around.
Numbers aside the Bronco is going to have at least 200 addons available from Ford. One would assume bumpers, grill guards, light kits, lift kits, etc. Then there are all the aftermarket manufacturers chomping at the bit to get their hands on the Bronco so they can start producing their own product. You won't see that for the Defender.
LOL, bias much? ::meaningless stats:: So I am going to call it for the Bronco because I like the way it looks.
These are some of the clueless dipshits that are responsible for your Gucci Defender.
The irony to the luxury Defender's "superior" stats is that they are taken at max air-suspension height, where articulation, capability, and ride quality are their worst.
That's just not true. Those stats are all taken at regular off-road height for an EAS equipped Defender 110. Maximum air suspensions height (which you can get to and invoke only if you get stuck / high centered, e.g. extended and super extended off-road height) would be several inches and degrees above those stats, but such "meaningless" real numbers and capabilities of a stock Defender don't stand a chance compared to showing pre-pandemic British designers in brightly colored shirts and calling them clueless dipshits here, so carry on.
I think judging the individuals who helped design it based on their looks and clothing choices is a pretty low blow, though.
When I go there, I want that spotter. Very impressive (the car, too.)
Then you ought to like this also.
