The Ford Bronco Is Actually a GREAT Rock Crawler, Kinda.

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Its time to take my 2021 Ford Bronco Sasquatch offroad! I dont plan on just staying on the easy trail roads and go up a few small rocks, and then say how great it is offroad... We are going to put the ford bronco up to the test on some very difficult rock crawling trails here in Oklahoma.
Ive seen tons of content on the bronco out west, and it looks like it does great! But even a kia soul can do some of those "challenges" out west. Lets put the bronco through the paces, and see if it can hit the trails meant for the real rigs!

Unfortunately, body damage is always a possibility, as well as broken parts on the bronco. Its a vehicle that did a great job on these trails, but it still needs lots of work to be able to crawl around in large rocks without completely destroying itself like a soda can.
I am curious to see how a stock Jeep JLU Rubicon would do on these same trails. If you are local, and have a stock JLU rubicon and want to wheel with ben and i, please let me kow!
