Realistically you are looking at about a year or more wait. Plenty of time to work through things. Since they aren't building any more FJs you should find a way to have both.

I broke down and ordered a 2 door Badlands Bronco last week. No I’m worried I might be making a mistake get ride of FJ for Bronco. The “1st year issues” scare me when I know the Toyota can run for 200k+ with no issues. Just looking for Bronco lovers opinions.
First we need pictures of your FJ 😉

Second keep them both. I had an FJ from 14-18. For the following two years I hated my self, till I bought my second FJ 14 TTUE and made my Bronco reservation.

Meet my first baby

And she can’t wait to meet her baby sister 😍

Oh, and like was mentioned before, if you just ordered the Bronco then, then you’ll be waiting for a while. Unless your loaded and can afford the $10-20k dealer markups going around! 🤑

I might could keep them both but not both and wife 🤣. She said I already have to many cars.
Buy her a new diamond, but she has to give up one to get the new one, 'cause she has too many...

Well FJs are hideous and I’m guessing it’s not under warranty. The 2-door Bronco is a beauty and is under warranty. 😀
Think you wandered into the wrong thread...

I don't think you can go wrong either way, the big failures seem to be overall pretty rare so it comes down to whether you mind a few extra dealership trips for recalls over silly stuff like airbags or mirror whistling. Hopefully going forward there should be no more roof issues.

I'm shooting for 2023 because I don't want to deal with those stupid issues and the bronco i want doesn't exist yet. (fancy top, heritage edition, Rapid red or acceptable alternative, V8, etc)

I had an FJ that I modded, wheeled, and loved for 5 years…a beautiful all green TT….the Bronco blows it away. You won’t regret moving to the Bronco for a second.

Tell her you can have multiple vehicles, or multiple women - pick one. (She won't pic women)
You're single, aren't you?

Over 200k miles on my 2007 FJ TRD. Bought new as a first year when I lived in NC, now living in SoCal. Blew a head gasket a few months ago, so now decided what to do with it.

You'll have plenty years to enjoy that FJ while your Bronco gets built.
