If You Could Go Back Before Buying Your Bronco, What Would You Do Differently?

[chopperbobby]

Better prepared before buying. Just stopped in on a Sat to look. And ended up going home with one. Not much reserch on trims or prices. Not best deal. Also in a hurry and wife did not want to be there
I absolutely love it 2025 outerbanks sas with lux. Asue gray. I thiks i want to add the heritage white stripe to it
Only thing i wish it had duel top. I like soft top for summer. But not sure i want to go through change it each year.

Randomly thought about this today: If I could go back to the day before I bought my Bronco, would I do anything differently?

Honestly, I might have picked a different color. I really want to experience a different vibe, though the current one is growing on me because it's so classic.

What about you? If you could go back to that moment, what would you change? Fewer mods, or a different build entirely? Would you do it all the same, or maybe skip the Bronco altogether? (Probably not, right? lol)

Where did you get the China spec grille with the Ford emblem above Bronco?

I wish I had more time to search or even place an order. I needed a vehicle before the end of the week. My car that I drove to Florida was not going to make the 1000 mile trek home without serious work and the shop couldn’t do it for a week or so.

Luckily the dealership had in stock something that ticked most of my boxes. It had to be a hard top and Sasquatch package. The features I didn’t get I am trying to add if I can. So far I’ve added the tow package and will be adding the turn signals and puddle lamps to the side view mirrors. But I would have loved to have the front camera and bumper sensors. But overall I love my vehicle and I am slowly transforming it how I want it.

I would have highly considered a 4-door, because the 2-door is impossible for my family to go anywhere in, in any kind of comfort. The extra rear leg room for a kid that is 6' tall at the age of 14 would be wonderful.

BUT, on the flip side, it was bought for him as a 'first vehicle' when he is driving by himself...so the lack of passenger space was a consideration, too.

Otherwise, I might have sprung for one with the 360° cameras...as small as this thing is, that would have been pretty helpful for him...though I don't want him getting dependent on it either.

I wish I had 4a. It makes 0 sense that the most road oriented trim level doesn't come standard with 4a.

 

[jbob5059]

Would have added aux switches and the mod bumper. Other than that, extremely happy with my rig.

You can still do that.

Would have not ordered the factory roof rack. Would have ordered the modular bumper.

Might have considered the 2.3 engine rather than the 2.7 although not had any problems with six.

If the painted tops had been available definitely would buy that rather than the MIC.

Nothing at all. The 2 door Base sasquatch with the 2.7 is the sweetest of sweet spots. Price protected at 35k too. It's all too expensive now.

I'd spring for the Lux package instead of the mid.

 

[MilesTeg]

I wouldn't have changed anything. I sometimes wonder if I should have gone SAS, but then I remember I wasn't willing to pay $6,000 for a spec I could reach after market for about half that. And with wheels and tires of my own choosing. (2024 Badlands)

 

[Big Boss]

Would have made sure I got the rear locker, aux switches and mod bumper

 

[dgorsett]

I might have ordered a BD and added cloth seat covers instead of a BB to get the tires, rails, skids and bumpers without going aftermarket...but what would be the fun in that. I like my BB wheels, but the optional Black aluminum BDs have grown on me. And if I knew it was coming and I could keep my place in line I would have waited two months for Eruption Green....but I'm good.

 

[DewarT]

I would have waited another year and gotten a non MIC hartop. After cracking and warranty on the first two, Ford says they won't warranty a 4 month old top...

I love my Bronco Raptor, but Ford is a terrible company- knowing these issues exist.

The Ford family has to eat

I mean, I LOVE my 23 OBX SAS Lux, most fun vehicle I've ever had.
However, had I done my research a bit more, I'd have held out for a Heritage Limited. Still keeping an eye out for a good deal on one
