Based on all the stories we've read about dealers calling up future Bronco owners and telling them they have Bronco's in stock?!?! That was about the dumbest thing Ford could've done, let's take something different and call it the same!

Hell would've been better if they just called it a Bronco II. For a person who bleeds Ford Blue, sometimes the idiocy of that company just annoys the shit out of me.

I do agree with @Rob1135ny, the reveal was the best thing about the Bronco. Since then, it's been nothing but disappointment or total lack of information. I've always been in on the Bronco, from the day I sold my '94 a few years back. But the level of info/news the last couple of months has been sad. Hell, headline on the site yesterday was about a 1:24th scale toy... sad, just sad.
This is why I just look at bronco info every now and then instead of every day like I used to. I am less disappointed that way.

With the price increase I have changed my mind. I am now looking at the black diamond again instead of basesquatch. Enjoyed stick in my younger years lol. Don't really need the Sasquatch package and the black diamond has a lot I like. This of course can change if Ford keeps f**king w/ b&p
Yea, their is a part of me that has been tossing around these two options with all the changes im a little disheartened ..
1. Go Base base and build to my liking, bumpers, sliders, lift/tires and a torsen diff...
2. Keep my WJ and get my boss something she likes, commanders starting to get up their in miles, that could become my new DD then the WJ becomes trail/backup duty.

Does he know Torre from Lakeland Florida?? @jrustyasl want to test drive again?
Lol!! I switched dealers! I told the other dealer about what had happened and they assured me that they know their vehicles! I still haven’t received an apology from Torre or management. :( oh well, moving on and getting me a real two door bronco! Lol!

Someone gets covid and this board just stops! ??‍♂
how'd you know? I tested positive on Sunday. :(

overall I feel like shit, but luckily it's been pretty mild. Luckily my kids symptoms are even more slight. Wife seems to be a few days behind me. But she's getting through it.

worst part is, no idea how I got it. Based on all our circumstances I narrowed it down to Home Depot. Crazy.

I guess I am in the same boat now. I really want to like the BD, but the suspension and the wheels do not look great stock. Maybe I need to see one in person...

There might be a 2” lift kit option from the factory. Get that and possibly add 33’s and that should clean it up. I’ve been toying with this idea.

How long did it take before you felt better!
I’m feeling a little bit better each day (15). But everything I do takes a lot out of me.

Sounds like you got the typical flu-like version of it.

My brother-in-law got it back in like April. He was sick for 2 weeks, high fever and the typical body aches. Since then he's been fine.

My "middle" kid (24 years old), got it December 10th. Same deal, high fever (101+) and body aches for 2 weeks. And he's doing better now.

I had a wicked headache for 3 days (like concussion level), no amount of Tylenol helped. No fever, some aches, some congestion - I got a little freaked out when I lost my sense of taste that was like day 4. Being tired is an absolute - I was napping several times a day and I NEVER do that. Once headache subsided I was on the path to feeling better, although I am 25+ days through and I still feel some lingering tightness in my chest that causes a coughing fit once or twice a day - almost like just coming off a bronchitis type cold. I know it could've been alot worse, I have a buddy who is 12 days in and feels like hell. My brother in law (who I got it from thanks to me helping him hang a TV on the wall) and my nephew had it about the same, nephew ran a slight fever for a day or two.

With how bad the headache was - I could totally see how someone would say fuck it I'm staying in bed and just laying horizontal with the congestion starting, sets you down a path of disaster.

Good luck man and I wish you a speedy recovery.
