Approved for production by veteran executive Lee Iacocca, the Bronco arrived at U.S. dealerships in 1965 for the 1966 model year. The Heritage Edition, which is currently under development on Michigan's roads, pays tribute to its cool-looking predecessor with four-slot wheels.
Don’t be fooled by the matte-black finish, though, because the Bronco from the olden days had white steelies. I would also bet my two cents on a different material than steel. The Bronco Sport Badlands, for example, can be had with 17-inch aluminum alloys that resemble steelies.
Camouflaged from rooftop to the bottom of the doors, this prototype also rocks a set of Goodyear Wrangler Territory rubber shoes without the Wrangler name featured on the sidewall because that would make Jeep loyalists roll on the floor laughing. Zooming in reveals the dimensions as well, namely 315/70 R17 or 34.4 inches in diameter.
The truck-based SUV with the four-door body and longer wheelbase further flaunts a full-size spare wheel on the tailgate, HOSS suspension with yellow-painted Bilstein ESCV shock absorbers, and a white-painted grille. If my intuition is correct, the white on the grille will mirror the wheels' finish in order to contrast nicely with the body shell and mirror caps.
Codenamed E5G for the two-door and E5H for the four-door, the heavily-anticipated Heritage Edition will feature the advanced 4x4 system, according to leaked information. A limited edition that will probably go away after the 2022 model year, this fellow is expected with specific badging for the exterior and interior to separate itself visually from the rest of the lineup.
Easily describable as a retro-infused Sasquatch, the Heritage Edition may also be available with the seven-speed manual transmission because Ford has confirmed the Mansquatch for the 2022 model year. Be that as it may, bear in mind the stick shift is exclusively offered with the 2.3-liter EcoBoost engine.
