Automakers love to appeal to our nostalgia. Sometimes this is done via a paint color, or trim graphics, or an Easter egg. Sometimes an entire vehicle is designed to look “retro.”
Personally, I've had mixed feelings about this — sometimes these design choices work, sometimes it feels like a cynical marketing ploy.
Today's news about Ford releasing a new retro graphics package for the Bronco, and the response of some of you in the comments, has me wondering about your tolerance for retro design.
Personally, I don't mind it unless it's clearly a cynical cash grab. But some of you seem tired of it. On the other hand, I bet some of you can't get enough.
So, I want to hear from you.
Sound off below.
