From the pics I have been seeing it looks like Ford is building something that will be like an Isuzu Amigo. Like a Renegade fighter with a pop top and doors.

Well it certainly is a novel idea. Lets face it.. all manufacturers are chasing the Jeeps.. its a big dollar business.

Heres the link to the patent office to read the whole patent.

That’s the “baby Bronco” the bigger one hasn’t been caught yet although I’ve been told they are running around at night.

Yes there is a 3 door and a 5 door
3 door and 5 door share nothing, they’re in completely different size classes.

5 door is based off the Escape platform and the 3 door is off the Ranger platform.

I thought I heard the one based of the Ranger would be coming in both 3 and 5 door configurations.

That is possible, I’d have to check some sources on that. I do know that the 5 door one that has been spotted is the escape based version, which has caused a lot of confusion as a lot of people think it’s the Bronco Ford has been talking about for x amount of time. The one that’s been spotted is a cute Ute version, the real Bronco they expect to go up against the Wrangler.

My statement stands there will be a three-door version and a five-door version
