Looks nice - It should be great for getting my wife to-and-from Costco...
Just kidding... We are actually thinking of the Bronco to replace my wife's 2003 Ford Escape that she bought new. She's put 140K miles on it since she bought it I've done coils/plugs (easy), alternator (PIA), power steering pump (not too bad) and a valve cover gasket (about 4 hours work) on it. Al-in-all it's been a really good car and we have no complaints.
I have 136k on my 2010 TE 4Runner and outside of routine stuff (battery/tires/brakes etc).................... Nothing..... We'll, not true... A hoodlum gang of mice ate my soy based wire harness (who knew they were vegans?) and the cost was $7k (covered by insurance thank God) to replace it.
I'm really glad that Ford is getting back into the offroad market. It will help push competition and we need more off-road capable vehicles to chose from. Maybe it will push Toyota to finally come out with the 6th Gen. Meanwhile I'll keep my 2010 TE 4Runner and see if I can push it to 300K miles

I just stumbled upon it but was looking at the off road equipment and it seems pretty beefy. And with the available 2.7 liter Ecoboost and 10 speed tranny, it seems like a winner to me. I kind of like the 2 door over the 4 door looks wise. I have been casually considering a 4Runner for a while as I want something for off-road as well as running around, but now this new Bronco has kind of piqued my curiosity.

If you got lotsa cash laying around paxpower will put a 5.0 coyote in one. That would be a good time.

Honestly the 400 lb ft of torque on that Ecoboost, with a 0-60 time under 6 seconds, is good enough for me.
I figured I'd post a link since most of the guys around here like to off-road.
