I find myself speeding on the freeway. The bronco cruises nicely at 85. In comparison, my gladiator cruises comfortably at 70ish. I usually have to watch my speed in the bronco. It doesn’t feel as fast as it’s going.
No, I meant 350lbs. I was talking about tongue weight, not tow weight. But I can see that I did not specify that in my post. Thanks for noticing. I will update it.
That thing needs a WDH badly. Or some stiffer rear springs. The sag is terrible. You have to put some weight back on those front wheels. There’s little down travel left on the rear wheels. I wonder what the tongue weight of the trailer is. The bronco's tongue weight is only rated for 350lbs...
4 door badlands with Sasquatch. 14.2 all day everyday since October. Lots of lights and stop and go freeway traffic where I live. It’s better than my gladiator with 35s and a regear. That gets 13mpg. We are not very green, for people that live in California.
After owning my bronco since October, I’ve came to the conclusion that I would still take my Jeep wheeling over the Bronco. Sight lines suck and it feels huge.
Sounds like you found yourself a good wife! Our kids love the Bronco. They never want to want to ride in my truck anymore. It’s always “let’s take the Bronco!”
It looks good but it doesn’t quite have the wow factor of the f150 Raptor. Looks a lot like a Colorado to me.
That being said, I would have no problem driving it.
That about sums it up. I think the part people may not like is, I’ll cut the soft top open to get the bronco toy inside. But I’ll close the cut with some black duck tape. So it will be like new again.
I saw this article too. I’m not sure how accurate it is. I’m sure all these vehicles are near the top. But it had the gladiator beating the bronco on ADM. I got my gladiator below Invoice and the bronco at MSRP. Honestly, it isn’t a good time to buy any vehicle.
I went ahead and ordered a few broncos and gladiators on Amazon. Found them all for under $7 each. My daughters will have fun putting them on broncos and gladiators.
I was out for lunch today with my family. When we got back to our Bronco from lunch we found this on the windshield. I don’t know who walks around with a toy bronco, ready to gift, but we were all super happy they did. I drive a Gladiator and have been ducked. Let’s just say my two daughters...
Yup, if you need to buy a car now, your going to pay more for it. Personally, I wouldn’t consider buying a car in this market for that reason. Buying our bronco for MSRP in October was the most we ever paid for a vehicle. We always paid just over or under MSRP. Prices are crazy now.
They want people to finance because they can add in all the additional fees, with the finance manager. It’s much harder for a dealer to add in cilajet, lowjack, GAP insurance, extended warranties, and all the other crap when you pay cash. Even if I was paying cash for a vehicle, I wouldn’t even...
