Bronco phrases you've come to hate?

Our trucks are now registered on my birthday as of this year.
They are F 250s

Oh that is interesting. My tag on my F150 is from my old F250. My husband's F150 is due on his birthday. I have no idea what is going on with the tags now.

.....signed purchase order... blah blah... i'm so smart I knew to get one six months ago, and you guys didn't know to get one almost two years ago before we all learned MSRP meant nothing.

That time some people learned the hard way what "suggested" meant in "Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price"?

Well ACTUALLY…..a Prius is more like 50mpg

Id get a tdi instead, much cooler and comes with stick

For me, there are a few that I'm really starting to dislike:

"Worth the wait" is probably at the top of the list. Seriously, I can't imagine anything that is worth this kind of stringing along, lies, broken promises and poor communications. If, when we made reservations - we were told "it will likely be 2 years by the time you see your Bronco" - that would be one thing .. but that didn't happen. Every time I see someone post that comment with a pic of their new Bronco, I secretly want to throat punch them.

"If you're worried about MPG - buy a Prius" - this is just idiocy - gas is close to $5 a gallon, so unless you're independently wealthy, the cost of fuel in a daily driver should be a consideration.

"my Bronco's engine just blew up" - this is becoming too common

"4 door Bronco isn't a real Bronco" - shut the hell up.

What else?

The 4 Door Not Being A Real Bronco!!!! Really detest this comment. Having 4 doors is a luxury for those of us who have bigger families or just love the look. I owned a 2 door Wrangler and even kids had trouble getting in the back seat. That pushing the front seats back and forth. What a pain. I love the look of both 2d or 4d. It’s just whatever floats your boat. Just having a Bronco is pretty cool.

Would it still be cool if I said my momma had a TDI Jetta 20 years ago?

It’s an appliance, not your new friend.

My bronco will have a name. The current F-150 is Black Betty. The Mach-E is Eva….my 4Runner that was sold was Gurdy….help me out now. Should the new Bronco be….Wall-E?

I think the Jeep Wave or the Bronco Wave or a peace sign or whatever you want to call it is going to stick whether anyone likes it or not. My wife was driving around yesterday and it happened to her. Then I’m taking the kids to the library and someone in a heavily modified four door red Bronco did the same thing to me. If nothing else it’s something positive that helps build community. I’ll take it!

Maybe you need friends? I do like Black Betty .., Spiderbait?

I don’t have friends, I have colleagues and acquaintances. Spider bait? Hmmm, maybe just “pig”.

"No Scheduling"

 

[choppersean]

My guess would be because of threads just like this. 17 pages now of people bitching and moaning about words and abbreviations they hate. Not real productive!

Agreed....not really productive, but certainly shows me that others feel the way I do about some stupid fucking shit that many others seem to propagate and think are cool/useful when they really aren't. If this place is intended to be a more inclusive community for all I think seeing how others feel may give other B6G members something to think about outside of the echo chamber here.

Well ACTUALLY…..a Prius is more like 50mpg

Actually, my 2005 Prius we got 45 mgp on average. My wife's newer 2019 Prius Prime (plug-in hybrid) gets 55 mpg on the gasoline engine and since we have owned it we are actually getting 133 mpg when you include the EV portion of mileage on the battery.

Wow, this threat has xx pages? I’m not going to read all that, but here is my two cents….

 

[Onthegas]

“3 Door” for the 2Door and “5 Door” for the 4Door.

Oh, and yeah, trying to come up with a freaking “Bronco Wave”. I really do despise that.
