I was thinking Scout 800 but yeah Scout II works

Exactly. A cartoonish version of the Scout. This is what my wife refered to it when I showed her the new Bronco for the first time.

I can see the cartoonish resemblance

when you add a hardtop to the scout, the look is even more similar

Better Pict.

 

[trust]

I rest my case!

 

[sarcasm]

To be fair it is really a copy of their 1965 Bronco which copied the 1960 Scout. So they really are just copying their copy not the Scout.

I'm sure Ford appreciates the envy

Didn't realize they were at 190k reservations. Happen to know what the C8 got up to?

Since I like the Scouts, it doesn't bother me.

Well, once again....Ford copies International Harvester... They did after the 1961 Scout 80 half-cab, then the Scout 800, then the Scout II.

Come on Ford...Step up your game.

Yah, Ford probably should have went with the trapezoidal wheel openings like they have on there Baja racing Bronco and what they had on their early bronco. It would have looked more retro and brought back even more of the early bronco heritage. The round wheel openings with the flat flares don't look right to me at all as the appear kind of squaty. If they were going to make the wheel openings round, they could have looked much better with a slope to the flares like the Raptor has.
