Yes! It is a technological nightmare! I'm 60 years old and have no clue! Scared to change the god damn oil ! I open the hood and ask myself WHY?????
Sooner or later, you'll open the hood and there will be nothing there!

Only a 2 door is a "Real Bronco".............as we all know a 65 Bronco came with a 12" monitor, adaptive cruise control, 360 cameras, side curtain airbags, turbos, 35's, heated seats, dual climate control, voice activated navigation, and 17 Goat modes.
Good point!

The song Black Betty by Spiderbait … worth a listen - definitely not everyday and not very PC.
Spiderbait covered it, but it's not by them. Ram Jam beat them by several decades, when they did a rock version. They didn't write it, either. It was a blues song adapted from an African American folk song well prior to them. Nobody is sure exactly who wrote it, it's about a century old at this point. Spiderbait's version is excellent rock, though.

Oh yeah, hahaha. Sorry never been too hip with pop culture so “spiderbait” didn’t ring a bell. The wife named her….chrome grill and all…
They are Australian. Fun rock band, and their videos are often quite fun if you are a car guy. Not very well known outside their country, I think.

Not to mention...
electrically-controlled lockers, keyless entry, push-button start, anti-skid control, TPM, ABS, shoulder belts, headrests, catalytic converters, impact-absorptive dashboard materials...

(edit) Oh yeah, and FM radio.

You know... just... stuff.

Yep, that was all included on the 1966 Lux package Bronco along with the V8!

In general, anyone out there who has to resort to the MINI as the benchmark to make a point…has no point; just an inferiority complex.
You think drivers of Minis are the generally the ones with inferiority complexes? You may want to look up that definition one more time.

"I put my order in July XX of 2020".

No, no you didn't. That was your reservation date. Ordering didn't open up until January of '21
True That! And Production didn't start until 6/15/21! So it's only been about 182 days since production began, not 5xx and something days! I'll let Ford know I intend to buy a MY23 and start my countdown NOW and ask the question.....why haven't they scheduled it?

My (light -hearted) “hated phrases” list. Sorry, been in isolation for 135 hours. I am bored out of my mind.

1. Anything about “ Dirt Mountain”
2. …”so I talked to the general manager.”
3. Anything “easter egg”
4. “Which dealership would you……”?
5. “I traded my xyz car/truck in July because I thought it would be here…”
6. “Cyber Orange” (just the name of the color, and not the color)
7. My Bronco was built last month, but it has totally disappeared from planet earth.
8. “ADM” sobs and complaints
9. So, I got this (bronco art/hammock, calendar) from Ford in the mail yesterday.
10. “Will 35’s fit…”
11. Anything w/ “removed my Crash bars”.
12. Anything “Fox coil-overs”- (Paid $5k four months ago, still a no show.)
13. “My baby arrived” - birthing is so far from taking delivery of a car from my exoerience.
14. “What accessories should I get w/ $?”
15. Anything “Mud-flaps”.
16. “1” level kit”
17. Any photo of a bronco in a garage/parking lot/freeway.
18. “Parked next to this today 😏 ! (bronco next to jeep outside of a Hobby Lobby)
19. Off-Rodeo really taught me….
20. Ok, I just placed my order….
21. “ My sales person promised me….”
22. “Is Sasquatch worth it?”
23. “Garage photo next to a 2005-2006 Ford GT in Heritage paint” (“Makes me drool!!!!!”)
24. TC Custom Ford guy - “ I am 6’3” “
25. Jeepaholics trying soooo hard to stop liking the bronco more than jeeps. -“To bad it doesn’t come with a 392cu.in v-8????)
26. “Where is everybody getting the classic bronco badge?”
27. “Bought this xyz vehicle because I couldn’t wait any longer”


That is about it.
