Good by Bronco

[HighVelocity]

Isn't anyone going to tell him this isn't an airport, you don't have to announce your departure? I always thought that was funny.

Jesus H. Christ on rubber crutches...there was even an animated GIF!

Not man enough to own one. Mine is a 2 door base stick shift in Chicago traffic either running 90 or in crawler. No frills, it is what it is. I enjoy mine because it is not perfect and years from now will still be wanted by someone because it is what it is.

Actually has 23 posts, almost all in vehicle tracking threads.

Unfortunate that he expected an off-road vehicle with a removable top to be quiet and roomy inside.

Recalls and warranty issues are a legit complaint...but the rest reads as someone with expectations that could never be lived up to.

Wait though... He was going to take care of that wind noise by siliconeing all the roof seams (because he will NEVER take the top off... LOL!!!

That and a month after he got it was telling someone they "F"ed up and needed to lengthen the drive shaft because they lifted 3 inches... LOL

The loss to the knowledge base here will be deeply felt... by someone I suppose, not sure who.

AND actually I like the recalls.... Years ago there would not have been a recall... Just live with it or warranty work if it actually was a problem the customer complained about. (remember there was no internet so everyone thought they were the only one to have "that" problem....) At least now they are trying to be proactive.

Am I the only one who likes wind and tire noise? It helps drown out the tinnitus which was probably at least partially cause by wind and tire noise.

This^^^ I actually enjoy the noise!

Ah, a sad Boomer who bought a vehicle on self imposed image of himself, and ignorant of the actual product.

Excuse me... do not group me with uninformed fools with unreasonable expectations.... I know what I bought and I love it. AND yea, I am a boomer... Get off my lawn you fricken little kid!

I hated my bronco for a few days. Changing 37 in the mojave desert at 108 degrees .Really took a lot out of this 70 year old man..

New owner here and I’m kinda happy with my 2.3 MPG. 300 mile trip and averaged 24.5 mpg going mostly 75mph. For a brick, I’ll take it.

I always find angry posts funny. This was no exception.

So NOW you’re getting the F-150 sized vehicle you THOUGHT you were getting when you ordered your 2021 6G Bronco.
I guess you were 25 years late ordering your wished-for 5G OJ Bronco which was disco’d in ‘96.
But hey, at least now you’re getting the F-150 you always wanted.

what he really needs is the aussie everest

OP just curious on your thoughts about waving to other Bronco owners on the road?

Well I just cant take it any longer , Basically the bronco is not user friendly and it is just to dang small . No window frames on the doors leads to whistling on windy days , the window switches in the center console is just plain maddening , the two piece tailgate with spare tire is ridiculous and all the recalls are unbelievable . Off to Carmax .

whatcha asking? how about a deal for a fellow bsg member!??!

I hope you looked deep into your Bronco's headlights and said "It's not you, it's me."

Did you not look at the vehicle before buying it - window frames/switches and tailgate/spare did not metamorphosize after purchase.
