As a Bronco Owner, What’s Your Breaking Point?

[suparee]

Nothing will break me. A human built it, a smarter human can fix it, and make it better. Short of it turning into a rust bucket, I’m in for life.

Love the attitude!

On a market with resteicted choices kinda like Soviet Union VS globally open ,arkets lime Europe and LatAM theres not a lot to choose from in a sea of costco design clones in costco fashion earth tones.

I take the Bronco for what it is, a $30K vehicle with $55K price tag thanks to competiton blocking. Everything else in market is boring even up to $300K region.....just boring, like the retro Fiat 126 interior in $300K Ferraris no wonders their margins are insane.

None of them give me the slightest concern.

None of these would break me.

These.

Level 11. Repair bills replace and exceed the paid off loan payments.

I compare repair bills against a new vehicle's payments. If the repairs are less than a year's worth of monthly payments, I have saved money.

Level 5. But something I’ve done is always the cause of said noise so…

If my bronco was totaled, I would not be buying another. They are out of my price range now. That would technically be my breaking point.

1- I expected to see cracks after reading alot on here. I didnt expect to see them on my third top under warranty..

Everything else- meh

Same. I kept my 2002 3/4 truck 13 years, and I bought it used, lol. Finally, a nagging oil leak AND coolant leak that the shop couldn't fix did her in. I was driving around with jugs of coolant in the back seat when I drove to trade it in.

One of the idiosyncrasies of the BMW Z8 was that due to its low-profile tires, limited suspension travel, McPherson strut design and aluminum box frame architecture, it was highly susceptible to frame damage from large bumps and potholes. More than a few hit minor bumps and were practically totaled because the impacts bent the front sides inward. This would become apparent when the gap along the sides of the hood would shrink or even reduce to metal contact. Repair costs would exceed the value of the car in some cases because aluminum box frame repairs were insanely expensive.

So, I give you my level 10: if it turns out that hitting a minor bump in a certain way causes irreparable frame damage, or risk of fire (a la the Pinto), then that

Just make it a buggy and keep it at the self storage when the time comes

Imagine the trails you could run then
