Ford is releasing a new Bronco next month.
The new Bronco will be released on July 9, the same day that will mark O.J. Simpson’s 73rd birthday.
O.J. is synonymous with the Ford SUV from the police on a chase from Orange County to Brentwood on June 17, 1994, in a white Bronco. Former teammate Al Cowlings was at the wheel during the slow-speed chase. It remains one of the most-watched news watched TV events of all time.
Ford says that the car’s release correlating with Simpson’s birthday is “purely coincidental”
