Base Bronco 2-Door Iconic Silver spotted in Wixom, MI

[RedDawg]

Yes. We are all so used to the Sasquatch look. However, I ask that you take a quick look at the next F-150s that you drive past. I bet at least 1/2 of them will have wheel wells that look like that. We are so close to Broncos that we don't notice that a lot of trucks look like that, and that is perfectly acceptable to the main stream public.

Also, I am not sure if you are sizing it out for a second set of wheels/tires. I am. I think I may get 32s with alloy wheels for a second set.

I want to throw the BD black steelies and the 32’s

No center grab handle?

Not on the Base. It is worthless anyway.

I can definitely live with that interior. Just need to add heated seats, leather wrapped steering wheel and window tint on top of a base/Sasquatch! No need for the upper trim level for what i want to use it for!
Anyone happened to have the measurement from the top of the back seat to the tailgate/back window for a 2 door? I’m really hoping for 16”+.

It is 16” from the top of the back seat. More room on the floor.

I was just noticing all the seams, and the front panels never match up with the back.

You will almost always see a difference in color (particularly metallic) when you have one plastic pice and one metal piece butting together. The paint lays differently. Then make it a slightly different shape and or different plane and it’s exaggerated even more. Cameras also sometimes pick it up and exegete it as well. Look at almost any silver (any metallic and even more so on a three stage paint) car, bumper to fender or quarter panel and you will see similar “flop” of colors. It is one reason I like Cactus Grey or White.

Spotted at the Duluth Trading store Wixom, Mi.

Man, something about this base Bronco I love so much. A little bigger tire and I would be content. Add some off road goodies as time goes on. Unfortunately I really really want a Manual and I’m afraid I need a four door .

Also want Cactus.. so up to Black Diamond I go! Ha!

 

[mlcinema]

Very nice starting point, if you want to build your own from there...or leave it as is and roll on.

...and can we please quit hating on the gray MIC top - that looks pretty damn good.

Agreed! The grey MIC looks just fine.

Those pizza cutters are making it clear that Sasquatch package is a must. Base bronco skipped leg day.

The Base looks very cool. Like a bigger Samurai.

If you need Sasquatch to have fun you don't drive right. The Base looks like a blast.

OP: thanks for posting!

Loving the steelies. Mine will get all terrain tires on the steel wheels probably immediately.

I'll just sell or give the all-seasons to someone with a older 2wd Explorer or something with 16" wheels. I wish I could just add the all-terrain tires at the factory, but that deletes those wonderful steelies.

Minor compromises are expected. I've seen nothing that gives me pause, thus far.

 

[RedDawg]

What replacement tires are you planning to put on when you swap?

265/75 16 or just order the 17” BD steelies and the 32’s that go with them

Right? That's exactly what I'm looking for. Basically a more modern version of my (not any longer) 1986 Isuzu Trooper 4wd (2 door, only it was LWB compared to Bronco, 4 cylinder, manual transmission).

I think the base is more than capable enough for me.

Hey man, my comment was replying to a message about the hard top. But thanks for the feedback, I agree. ??

There’s a 2” factory lift available for all models.....just saying.

Nice....I've thought about that too - I like the BD black steelies and I'd assume that the 17" wheels will fit without too much hassle.
