Absolutely no regrets!

Completely satisfied with my Basesquatch + aux switches + roof rails.

I am so satisfied that I sold my '72 GMC Sprint SP (El Camino SS) to fund a full blown overland build. I added a towing receiver (electronics are being ordered tomorrow), rock sliders are on order along with grab handles. I am ordering DV8 front and rear bumpers with winch, and a roof top tent. The overlanding plan for next summer is already underway.

Love my Bronco and it is always a big topic of conversation. No regrets!

Never loved a vehicle more. Just installed fog lights with my 5 year old son (trial and error too). Priceless.

My biggest regret is that I didnā€™t order the auxiliary switches. What are your regrets?
Wish Iā€™d have gone with Black Diamond rather than Big Bend. Iā€™m really loving how it rides!!
Hey. As I recall there was a guy on here that added switches after the fact. He said the wires were there. Go find the page and hope is you.

I have a Base 4Dr auto with aux switches, HD bumper and brush guard. No regrets I don't want anything more. Almost upgraded to big bend for the leather wrapped wheel and alloy wheels, glad I didn't the plastic wheel feels great and the steelies look great with the carbo gray. If I was into off-roading, I would have opted for the same thing with Sasquatch, but this will more than handle anything I will be doing and I'm getting 31 MPG on the highway doing 65.

I regret that I didn't order earlier. I'm still without a VIN for my 7.20.20 reservation.

I regret every day that I choose to drive something else instead of my Bronco. This thing has vastly exceeded expectations in all categories. The things I was worried about (the 2.3 instead of the 2.7 for example) are complete non-issues. It's amazing and I absolutely love it.

I have the 2.3 and no regrets. The other day I had to punch it to get into traffic and it really goes when necessary, I was like damn. Granted I have a Base with stock tires, so that helps.

Sometimes I regret joining this site because it is so dang negative. Yeah I get it people are frustrated, but from the very beginning people were loosing there mind over top colors, transmission options etc. That said I keep coming back for more! This thread is an exception, a lot of positivity here.

I regret trying to hang a snowboard in my garage without proper hangers, it put the first scratches in my paint when it fell. Luckily they polished out pretty well and I have to look hard to find them.

I'm expecting to take delivery of my 7/15/20 reservation Bronco next month, and the only POSSIBLE regrets I have is:

1) Removing Tow to get it quicker (if that is even true this late)
2) Sticking with Cactus Grey, after my initial excitement from the reveal had subsided. Was considering switching to White pretty recently, but ultimately stood pat.
3) Standing firm on my commitment to a 2-door. I keep questioning whether I shot myself in the foot for style versus utility. Will I regret not having the extra space in the Bronco? Only time will tell.

Agreed completely. I was worried before buying but there was no question once I drove it. Moves great!

No regrets at all. Absolutely love my bronco. bl antimatter blue with mid package. It's the most truck I could afford, and I didn't want to have to mess with major suspension or drivetrain mods later down the road. Kinda wish I got the manual, but not having to worry about my gf screwing something up when we have to swap vehicles for the day is nice. Besides, I can always take the cobra for a spin when I need that v8 manual fix

Only regret is not getting the hybrid version to get me above my 16.5 mpg average! Seriously though, no regrets. I'm more thankful I wised up and got the High package. That 12 inch screen is a beaut!

Mansquatch Badlands, base package, EG-no regrets. Using a clicker to open the door has taken a little getting used to though.

Maybe Iā€™ll miss heated seats in the winter, but summer in TX certainly doesnā€™t make me miss them now.
