WITHIN 10km of driving the 2022 Ford Bronco, I had to ask: “Why the hell isn’t Ford bringing these to Australia?”
Let’s be honest, Ford can’t go wrong with any 4x4 riding on the T6 platform at the moment, and the Bronco would complement the Ranger and Everest models in Australia as being a better off-road and lifestyle alternative.
I must admit I was a little disappointed when the kind lady at the counter at LAX handed me the keys to the big red Bronco Black Diamond, as I was expecting a Bronco Raptor for this drive. While the Raptor is the off-road hero of the Bronco model range with its 37-inch tyres, lockers and 3.0-litreV6 engine, the Black Diamond version was much lower and slimmer than the Raptor which would have been a rather tight fit in the hotel car park.
The plan for the Bronco was to do a road trip that would be every car junkie’s dream run to the SEMA show in LasVegas and, Raptor or not, this Bronco would get the job
