I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

BTW, I mentioned a few small issues in my original post about this rig. Why are some of the forum members jumping on the negative instead of praising the positive traits of this rig? Kind of sad that my intention of learning more exciting things about the Bronco has turned out into “ prove it” posts.

Would it be possible for members here to share some of the things that makes this an exciting vehicle? Thank you!
Maybe the ratio of "have" vs "have not" is swaying the vibe towards the "less than positive". 🤷

Maybe some group psychology experts could come in?🤓

I can’t wait to see suspension companies, rock sliders, and skid plates!!
Rock Hard emailed me recently and said they're waiting to get a/their Bronco as they'll have parts for it and implies rock sliders, though it'll probably be most of their line up.

No problem, here ya go:

As anyone knows for everything I can document there will be someone who will document something to disprove it. As previously stated I recommend you do your own research and come to your conclusion as I did.

I imagine by the next year or so these bugs will be worked out and addressed.
(That was so easy I kind of feel bad.)

didn't some of the Sports have to cool down when the PTU got too hot at an event? Perhaps that it the event to which he refers?
PTU overheating is way less severe than engine overheating. I should know, I change my RS’s PTU fluid every 30k

Actually I was speaking of the at least dozen overheat shutdowns on demo days in Lucern. It was a big buzz my desert racing buddies were talking about at our club meeting. While they were impressed with the Bronco, the short sandy course was having the demos stop on more than a few occasions toward the end of the day due to overheating. To me that is a pretty good indicator of what to expect out of production models.

I have also spoken with my local mechanic and he is also confirming overheat problems with the whole lineup of F150's, Rangers, and Broncos. I am by no means bagging on the rig. Simply my observations looking outside of what some of the the forum members are experiencing.

I recommend to any member of this forum to look outside the threads/posts and do their due diligence by speaking to actual owners (besides themselves), techs, and others who have driven these rigs.

I think it's important to remember when you drive these rigs in off road or other performance oriented conditions, it puts a lot stress on the cooling system.
hey oilly, ain't nobody twistin your arm to buy a Bronco. go get the import, you're just tryin to convince yourself anyway.

Resurrected an almost 2-year old thread to talk shit. Nice.
Sometimes the cucumber tastes better pickled!
I don't exactly know what I mean by that, but I think it could possibly be appropriate.
