That’s the first gen. First generation of 2.0 had its issues. They changed out the coolant system on the 2.0/2.3 and 3.5.
I agree, 2020+ should have the revised block design to eliminate the coolant instrusion problem. But, your comment about "millions" of 2.0's without problems isn't accurate, unless you specify 2020 model year and later.

I hear ya on that. Should have specified. I am happy Ford is getting its act together and trying to fix drivetrain problems. They have been pretty poopy since the late 90s - 2016 ish

Sneak peek.

Glad I snagged that one and the other, more crisp photo, and saved them to my phone yesterday! Haha!

Proof that ford is watching the forum 😏😏😏
I was wondering what was taking so long. On the Bronco6g, photos typically lasted only a couple hours

We knew what the sheet metal was going to loo like since Dec 2020, it was just nice to see a paint color and no camouflage. Haha!

Is this a clue that the bed holds water & can be turned into a hot tub? Has to be...right?
it could be. If the bed is 54x54x14 that’s 24.3 cubic feet. Filling it with water is 1500lbs. So 1500lb payload?
