  1. 4 door Bronco Family vehicle?

    I have a 2002 Mazda Miata I commute in and take my 4 year old to daycare in every day. I long ago decided I don't care what others think about my choices.
  2. Jeep is out of original ideas 😂(Jeep Adventure Academy)

    I don't think anyone is copying anyone else. For years Ford offered track days for Mustang and Focus/Fiesta ST owners, Raptor owners got their own off road academy, as has been stated Jeep's been doing this off and on for years.
  3. What sort of weird things are you cross shopping the bronco with?

    I'm looking at another car in probably 2 years and the two my wife and I are looking at the closest are the Bronco and the Tesla Model 3 Long Range and we keep flipping back and forth over which one we prefer.
  4. Big Bend Bronco Thread

    My experience with optional hard tops is with sports cars and those usually start about $1000 new, so $1900 for a larger, and more complex top doesn't seem out of line.
  5. What do we affectionately call the Outer Banks model with Sasquatch Package?

    The Bigfoot of the American south is called the "Skunk Ape"...
  6. 4 cylinder 4 door? Really?

    I'm on my third ecoboost. I had a MKT that I got rid of after 150,000 miles (and still in my family) a 2.0 in a Focus ST that I got rid of at 85,000 miles when my wife got pregnant again and 2 rear facing car seats did not work and now another 2.0 with 60,000 on it. Carbon buildup doesn't seem...
  7. Why go 4-door unless you have to?

    I have 3 kids, a 15 year old step daughter, a 5 and a 4 year old so a 2 door won't work for the family car we need. I already have a two door, two seater, an 02 Miata that I've had for more than 10 years now. I pulled it out of mothball when my 5 year old started kindergarten and I only...
  8. No V8 from Ford any time soon but mainly because of emissions penalties

    About 10 years ago Ford did an interesting torture test of the 3.5 when they introduced it on the F-150. https://news.pickuptrucks.com/2011/01/what-the-inside-of-a-torture-tested-ecoboost-v-6-looks-like.html The ecoboost series is fine.
  9. No V8 from Ford any time soon but mainly because of emissions penalties

    I don't understand the "reliability" arguments at all (and I question the age of those making such arguements). I''ve owned 3 EB motors all of them have been great and didn't need anything besides oil changes, the highest mileage one was at 165,000 when I sold it to my SIL and she still has...
  10. Keyless Entry Keypad

    I used to have the integrated one on my Lincoln MKT. It was nice but the stupid thing wouldn't let you lock the keys in the car, which was useless when we went to the beach.
  11. Jeep Death Wobble Reported on New Wrangler

    Not really. The solid axle is great for off road, and likely better than the Bronco is certain aspects but not so much at high speeds.
  12. Subjective red flags I see... now that I've had some time to let the hype settle in...

    That's how I read that. I can't wait for all the angry-eyed dude-bro Bronco's with green LED's and Monster stickers.
  13. Ford Paint Quality. ? ?

    I've had a 02 Focus ZX3, an 04 SVT Focus, a 2013 Focus ST, a 2015 Focus SE and a 2018 Focus ST and a 2013 Lincoln MKT. None of them had paint problems.
  14. What will Ford do about V8 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392?

    SVT doesn't exist any more. Near as I can tell it really hasn't since 2006, the last vehicle credited to them was the first gen Raptor but I don't remember seeing SVT badges on them.
  15. Bronco Owners Going Soft?

    I prefer this one:
  16. Bronco Owners Going Soft?

    One thing I've learned is that "boomer" is a state of mind more than an age group.
  17. Bronco Owners Going Soft?

    I got a few sentences into the OP and just went "OK boomer" and started reading the responses. The original Bronco cost $2194 according to Wikipedia. Using an inflation calculator that is $18,046.59, I can't think of much in that price range that I'd want to own A base 2 door costs near as...
  18. Is FCA getting nervous? Publishes Bronco vs Jeep Wrangler Info Sheet Guide

    I have a 18 year old convertible that I've owned for 10. It's never leaked until the top started to physically degrade from age and even then never from the seals. That is just plain unacceptable. I've never wanted a Jeep (their fan club is about as annoying as HD's and Tesla's) but I'm...
