Selling, Info needed please

[Tigerwalk]

Morning all,
We are a 1 car family and my wife is having trouble driving our Bronco. As much as I don't want to, I have to sell it.
It's a 2021 loaded Wildtrak with 21,000 Kim's. Mint shape never driven off road, all packages, area 51, 4 door, hard top.
Are there American sites that buy Canadian vehicles?
Any Canadians here interested?
Cheers

Hi -

Not to hijack your thread - interested in what issues your wife is having? My wife wants to start driving our Bronco from time to time, but has concerns about driving it as well.

Hey, my wife is not used to the size or Shape of it.
Driving is no issue for her but she can't park it.

Sounds like my wife's concern - although she drove a mini-van that was longer and wider than the Bronco, we'll see....thanks for feedback.

Have you tried to spend time with her in a parking lot or something, to get her more comfortable driving it in a "controlled environment?"

That really sucks to have to sell it. With all the technology and camera systems on these things, it's much easier to drive and park vs. the pick-up truck I learned to drive on - None of this technology existed lol.

Ultimately I guess you have to do what you have to do, but hopefully she'd be open to some one-on-one time to learn it, especially since you love this truck.

My wife came from a 2018 Lariat and she loves the size of the Bronco. Much easier to park and easy to maneuver out of tight spaces .. and yes the 360 cameras helps alot

Can't park it?!? Show her the camera button, It's awesome and parking feels like cheating!

it's easier to get a new wife than a bronco right now.

jk, you will have no problem selling but i agree with others, unless she just flat out hates it maybe start using the camera to park it?

i did automatic to make my wife happy and regret it, next one she is learning to drive a manual or not driving it.

Trade in the spouse.

Mine is at the age where ……..

Re the Bronco. I would be interested.

Not sure what the price is.The market is high for used. Let me talk to my irreplaceable spouse.

I agree with those other folks in the thread! Don't sell the Bronco! There are driver maneuverability courses that can be taken. I made my wife drive in the woods at Off Rodeo in NH. My Bronco is not here yet, so I don't feel your pain, but I would fight tooth and nail as well as bend over backwards to ensure that selling the Bronco is the last possible solution to the problem.

Take her to the mall, use the cameras, make her keep doing it until she is comfortable and capable. If I can teach soldiers who have never driven a car how to park an Army eight wheeled truck then she can park a Bronco.

IMO

One car family means compromises. The Bronco just doesn't work, I get that. Can't help, but I hope you find a good buyer, I don't think it'll be difficult in this market. I doubt you'll lose any money on the time you had.

Hope the next vehicle is a better fit.

Sorry to hear but maybe all you need is a lift and bigger ties and she can park where she wants.
