Do Bronco Owners Enjoy Their Celebrity Status?

[604Bronco]

With many (some?) of you lucky enough to have your Bronco's now, how are you enjoying the new "celebrity status?" If you don't have your Bronco yet, you can still vote.

When you park at a mall/grocery store/coffee shop/etc. do you enjoy random people coming up to you and asking questions about your Bronco?

Not included in the poll, but welcomed in the comments - Have you ever come back to your Bronco to find people touching it or peering inside? Curious how you handled that. IMO, I find that to be too far. Looking at it from a few feet away? No problem. Peering inside or touching my vehicle, I wouldn't like that and possibly assume you're trying to scope it out to break in.

Years ago I owned a 2013 Camaro SS in black and yellow. Yes, "Bumblebee." It wouldn't be uncommon to have people stop me to talk about it or take a picture with it... Even on one occurrence I was in the car with my girlfriend and people were trying to take a picture (which I thought was annoying/rude).

Anyone setup cones and/or a velvet rope to keep people back?

I wouldn’t care if people stared/took pictures, but most of the time I don’t feel like dealing with people in general, so they’d have to catch me at the right time for me to want to talk to them about it.
I agree with keeping distance though, don’t peer in through the glass or touch it.

I'm sure it would make me proud of it and happy to share it!

Can't speak for having a new Bronco but I can definitely say that it caused old ones to get more attention. I took my 89 to a show today and it got more attention than you could imagine. Even just on the streets people stop and stare.

Probably because half of them weren’t alive when the first Broncos were out... probably assumed you were driving a MY21 lol.

I have a Bernese Mtn dog that I take everywhere. It's like walking with a rockstar. A Bronco would be no big deal.

No celebrities in my neck of the woods, because I have yet to see a Bronco anywhere but in a dealership parking lot.

I think its totally fine, my wife hates it. I told her what had been happening to others that received their Broncos already and she wouldn't believe it. Now she does. We have had 12-15 encounters already and only had it 3 days. Should have seen her face when someone honked at a traffic signal and asked her to roll her window down.

It’s not too bad. I’ve had several people want to talk about it at work, the gas station and what not. As long as I’m not in a hurry to get anywhere I don’t mind. The amount of people I see staring at me and taking cell phone pics while driving down the road is pretty crazy though for sure.

Need option for " I enjoy people asking me if I got my Bronco yet, and when I say no, they laugh at me and say unprintable things about ford"

 

[kodiakisland]

Naw man, everyone around here been seeing Broncos for months. Smaller than they thought they’d be…

I get compliments often with my M4 (mainly bc of the color. Is it a wrap!? No. Factory Austin Yellow). So the Bronco attention won't bother me.

Very True. We have two Berniedoodles. People love them as well.

More than a Lamborghini…….That is a stretch. Maybe in California but not in the Midwest Corn country.
