Looks like the options have been leaked over on Jalopnik.
Sadly, there is no Dèrelique Package, but you can get something called the Sasquatch Package which I’m sure is just Ford-speak for covered in dog fur.

I still call it The Jake.
I’ll take the 2.7 engine option with 34s and lockers F/R. Malltastic.
4.70 diffs apparently.
Black diamond sounds like it could work but (1) Only a single black diamond, so it's probably not extreme enough for me and (2) no lux package option, which I'd rather not have to explain to the Joneses that I'm keeping up with.
I am actually curious as to the Outer Banks edition, but I assume it's more "Salt Life" than "baby blue beach cruiser"?

I'm seeing so many co-branding opportunities here its ridiculous.
Influencers dream of opportunities like this.
Surely we can expect an Affliction edition?

I think you are probably right on the FJ. That sold in real solid numbers that steadily decreased by 10k a year every year till it was cancelled.
I also think this is going to end up being a bigger rig than a Wrangler yet you get shit for more interior space ala the FJ. I ended up selling my FJ for my current wrangler as I outgrew its crawl capability but also because it was a packaging nightmare.

IMHO, the problem with the FJ Cruiser was that outside of it's capabilities, it was a terribly impractical vehicle. A buddy had one and it rode like shit, had very awkward spacing and the cargo area was next to useless. Literally nothing outside of its heritage was inspiring about it. At the core of a product is the product itself and I think Toyota missed on that one.

Future Bronco owners are going to want that seat height to be just right to be able to grab their Starbucks of choice at the drive thru. Too high, and you might risk dropping it on the ground. Too low, and it might just fall in your lap.
I can see a lot of these being sold in trendy Bend. No doubt there will be lots of them at the trail heads spring, summer, fall and winter. All with different accessories to fit the Bronco Nation lifestyle.
Probably lots of wealthy Gen X'ers in CO/UT/WY/MT/WA/ID/CA/NV will be buying these to set themselves apart from the "crowd".
Heck, if Ford throws in some kind of test drive freebies, I might, take one for a test drive, as long as it includes taking it off road.

I just saw a new Defender. It’s not nearly as cool looking as it should be. I don’t know how it got past the design committee.
IMHO the bronco is far better looking.

Now I'm gonna feel like a dope if I actually like it.
They hired a young agency that sold them on the need for building a Bronco community that's not like old Jeep Jamboree people.
Has nothing to do with the people who did the design of the Bronco....I think. If you like it, you like it. Screw the marketing.

Affliction Package can go fuck itself
I want to know more about the Dérélicte Edition
Tell me about the colorways
