Base Model Bronco Thread

Couldn't agree more! That's a good-looking Bronco!

Nice to see that even Ford acknowledges the Basesquatch is the best model.

Late Christmas

Picked up a base 2023 2-door in Shadow Black on Monday. Zero options, and I’m loving it so far. Game planning on what I want to do to it since it’s such a blank canvas. Most of my modifications will be subtle but nice.

Seeing a few dealerships around my area selling a new 2022 base 4 door Bronco for $42.5k out the door. At this price, I'm thinking it might make sense to buy and rent on Turo. Get to use the Bronco then sell it a few years later while making some money. I would ditch the stock wheels and throw on some Badlands 33's and no one would know the difference ...

Monthly payment would be right around $750/month. I'm in the NYC/NJ area. Thoughts?

The base Bronco is the best bang for the $$$ if you ask me…but I may be a bit biased as thats what I ordered. Love my base sasquatch.

$750/month used to sound like a lot, but not too crazy anymore. Especially when considering this is a $0 down option.

Accounting for depreciation, I would need about 50% monthly occupancy to break even, if I were to list it for a bit lower than other Broncos currently in my area.

Rephrase that it sounds like u are renting apartments

The Base trim is an excellent choice. We have 2. A 4 door with the 2.7 in AMB and a 2 door 2.3 in EG. Both automatics.

I absolutely love my Base.

I absolutely love my Base.

Is that the rough country nudge bar?

Base Base Bronco in Cleghorn, CA. No lockers, 3.73 Gear Ratio, 33' Inch tires/rims from a Badlands takeoff, tow hooks, mini bull horn from Mabett, and an upgraded JL sound system with a built in Sub.

This thing is so capable, it makes me laugh that a lot of people think they need the top of line build to enjoy some trails, you dont. I love it.

Yes it is. We had to modify it to fit the KC's

I just saw on the base spec sheet that towing across all drive train options is "TBD".

What is class 2 rated at?

If you want to tow things, go without the sas package. Towing is improved with stiffer suspension and tires. I've got a base and it'll tow more than the other trims

Looks good. I've got one ordered with their round lights. I like those KC's tho.
