Mitchell, is that you?????I'm 6'3", 220#. I sat in the back of a 4dr Bronco on a test drive and was comfortable. Now, I'm not sure how I would do for hours on end, but I thought the Badlands I was riding in was nice in the back seat.

I'm not sure how to respond? LOL. I may be missing a joke here or a serious question.Mitchell, is that you?????
I'd add, my new hard top Bronco with headliner and carpeted floors is easily as quiet in the cabin as my 2014 Ram 1500 and so far gets about 3 mpg better than my Ram, which is 2wd, around town. While the cabin of my 2-door does feel smaller than my Ram, everything I was carrying with me easily fit in the Bronco. I was surprised at the amount of storage under the rear floor.I love my bronco but it’s not practical in any sense of the word. The cabin is noisy, not super spacious, at least compared to your F150, gets awful gas mileage, and there’s some concerning reliability issues that you probably won’t have in your F150.
With that said it’s still my favorite vehicle I’ve ever owned!
Sometimes stuff just hits you like a train.Agree 100%. That‘s precisely why I’m keeping my 22 year old F150. It may look a little long in the tooth but it runs great and it’s always there when I need it.
Which flares are those, they look greatI sold a 2019 Raptor before I bought my Bronco last week. I went back and forth about it before moving forward. The Raptor was the road trip vehicle in addition to much of my off road stuff. It also pulled my boat, hauled trash and firewood, etc.
I'm installing a hitch on the back of the Bronco which, with a small landscape trailer, or hitch carrier will take care of most of what I need. The only thing that leaves me dealing with is the boat a couple times a year when we pull it out of the water for maintenance. All in all, the Bronco will do about 95% of what I need, and the rest wasn't a deal killer.
On top of that, it's a damn good vehicle and a hell of a lot of fun! No regrets!
I traded in a ‘17 f150 2wd w 3.5 eco boost for a Badlands 2.3 soft top MT. There are pros and cons to the Bronco. It is a lot more nimble and shorter, so easier to park and maneuver. Smaller on the inside by a good amount. Also, Bronco doesn’t offer as much protection for your stuff inside when parked. I added a cargo box, and keep a bike rack on the back. Getting stuff in and out of the box is a hassle, but sometimes it is necessary.I will be trading in my 2020 4 door F150 for a 4 door Bronco when it arrives. Since I really cant road test and drive one I'm not sure it will fit the bill. F150 is big enough for me, plenty of room , and nice to have a truck bed when needed for grabbing sod, mulch, whatever. I really don't "need" a truck and "want" a Bronco but don't want to be dissatisfied with my decision. Can any of you relate to a similar trade and mind sharing your thought on this ? Thank you !
While not pickup to Bronco. I've gone through this more than a few times. For where I'm at in life now, I don't have a recurring need for a pickup. I finally had the realization I didn't need the bed when all I ever threw in the back was hockey gear. I swapped out my Tacoma for a 4Runner, and was very happy I did. I could still haul anything I needed to (including lumber for small home projects), and 100% did not miss the bed at all. Everyone's situation is different, though, so you do you. But for me, pickup to SUV, I never regretted it one bit.I will be trading in my 2020 4 door F150 for a 4 door Bronco when it arrives.
