No regrets on my 22, it has been so impressive I have my 78 for sale.
New Bronco is worth the wait

Haven't received my Bronco, no VIN, no production date etc., but I have no regrets with my order. I have about every constraint sans the tow package, and I'm not budging!
Right there with you! My only regret is the occasional emotional outburst when a friend or co-worker asks me for the thousandth time about when I will get my Bronco or they say it won't be till 2024!

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!!
Not opting for the upgraded stereo - the base is really quite bad. I dont generally upgrade from base on any car ive had as im not really that into perfect music but the non B&O is terrible.

No regrets... but I traded in a 2019 Bullitt... and I am missing all that power and sound. Wish the Bronco had more power and sounded better!

If Ford ever releases a V8 Bronco, I will buy it immediately!
I'm trading in a 2011 BMW M3 with a V8. I'm sure I'll miss it, but it's such a completely different vehicle for different things that I think I'll be okay. I'll be building a sports car anyway, so that'll scratch the itch!

Not getting HOSS 3.0. Don't even have my Bronco yet (holding 6/24...for now)

Day 1 res holder and I never pulled anything off. Actually, I've only added items to the reservation both times I had to order and re-order. I figured adding 3.0 would delay it even longer, but why would I care after this long?

Nope.

Not a one.

Had I been pushed to '22, I would have gone mansquatch instead of the standard badlands suspension with the upgraded 33" M/T tires. And I would have been miserable because it wouldn't have fit in my garage with the ski rack on. So as far as I'm concerned I dodged a bullet and got just the right config.

I'll eventually get another sports car (Maybe a V8 swapped Miata, or a 1st gen Mustang?) For now (and probably for a long time) the Bronco is gonna be my only ride!

For a while my only regret was not holding out for a hard top. However, I've literally taken the top down every single day this past week. I live in San Diego which arguably has some of the best weather in the USA. Heck I may even completely remove the soft top for a few months.

I had a V8 in my 96 Bronco and it got like 7 miles per gallon.

My biggest regret is not ordering through a large volume dealer. All thanks to @Ford Motor Company's shitty allocation formula.

I ordered every constrained item, therefore, I donā€™t have a Bronco. No big deal, Iā€™m actually hoping for a ā€˜23MY with a modular top.

I regret not getting the tow package šŸ˜’ because it would be nice to have the 7 pin pre wired.

Big bend, 2.3 7speed, 4dr soft top, race red, rear locker, aux switches.
Mods 35x12.5xr16 tires and Mud flaps.

None. I wanted most of the stuff without the fluff so I got a BD MID SASQ. Didnā€™t even get the SDH since it is meant to get dirty. I had a lot of constraints and got what I wanted (see signature) other than the tow I dropped in October. Got built 5/16 and delivered 6/3. Hitch was just for my snow blower carrier so doesnā€™t need the trailer connection. I can do a Curt later. Anything bigger goes in the bed of my F250.

BTW - This thing is awesome! Hang on fellow B6G folks yet to be delivered. All the days of me muttering to myself ā€˜I just want my Broncoā€™ have surely passed away and I couldnā€™t be happier.

ā€œMay the odds be ever in your favorā€ -KE
