Starting to get pulled in another direction...(sadly)

It also drives better than my 21’ 4 runner. It does not roll as much as 4runner does. I have a 2.3. It accelerates much better than the 4.0 on the 4runner, not even close.

Thanks for adding this. Was looking at 4runners as well.
Several alternative options out there. Just seems Bronco is more of the complete package for daily driver and off-road beast

Maybe I'm just in the "mid life crisis" portion of my Bronco ordering life lol

Thanks Brother.
Damn you and your CO. That what I had on the original order lol. Yours looks great!

Bronco is my absolute best choice. Never thought originally I'd ever have to consider something else

I've got 6 more months in me. Just don't want to miss adventures next year with the family!

Oh I understand. Missed an entire Summer and more of usage and travels. I bought a huge Silver bow for the hood as we expected it would be here for our 25th Anniversary...nope. Missed 2 Birthdays....crap. But it finally came. I understand how difficult it is to wait. I spent my time reading everything about the Bronco. Came here every day. Purchased all kinds of accessories, watched install videos over and over, wrote down the exact tools and socket sizes needed. Under normal circumstances, a month's worth of tinkering. When it came....I started accessorizing 2 days later and in 3 days it was "done" (are we really ever done?). Everything went on with no issues and I felt like a Pro (far from it). Frustrating but when you get yours.....you will forget about all this hard time....waiting. I have. I also had a great Salesman and Dealer to work with. Take this time to make sure you have all your ducks-in-a-row with them. Agreed upon price, in writing, etc. So when it does come.....the final sale is a good experience too.

My dog even had a difficult time:

Have always wanted to be able to hit the trails, beach, areas uncharted but never had a vehicle that could take me and my family.
Decided 1.5 years ago that it was time. After researching, landed on the new Bronco. Was super excited!

What is your plan B?

My plan B never included dropping my order. After waiting a year I was going to purchase a used F150 Raptor from a private party and drive the daylights out of it, then use it as a trade-in when my Bronco was ready.

The week I was ready to find and buy my used F150 Raptor, my dealer called me and said my Bronco was on the lot.

Four days later I got an email from Ford saying my Bronco was in transit.

If you're looking for a really fun vehicle that can hit the trails, beach and areas uncharted, and handles great, a used F150 Raptor could be just the ticket. You might not even want your Bronco afterward. Way more room in the F150 and better finishes in the cabin, quieter, and lots of practicality w/the bed space. The only strikes against it are the size and that you don't get the convertible.

Having owned a couple Jeeps, I wouldn't want another one.

dont give up. you wont regret it

 

[sniffHound]

Did you get a bronco?

I switched to another vehicle by committing on July 5, drove it home august 10, so happy with my decision, and my only regret is losing a year of fun in my new vehicle while waiting for Ford to pull their thumb out.

 

[Jofenech]

No still no bronco, if it ever comes in, I don’t know what I’ll do with it, but I do know I no longer want it for myself

Thank you, hadn't considered that as an option!

Will always hold onto the order but just can't commit to a forever timeframe.
Hasn't seemed to be an issue over the last year for.people to buy something else and then trade it in on the Bronco later. Used car market was hot as hell so people weren't losing money.
Worried that won't be the case as we move forward

I ended up going with Plan B - 2020 Jeep Rubicon Diesle…basically every option. Loved the vehicle….had planned on keeping the Jeep but $5 gallon fuel I changed my mind actually my wife changed her mind. I ended up waiting 602 days to get my 2022 Badlands SAS, MIC, Leather, Lus, Tow….I have no regrets….the Bronco is worth the wait….but you really can’t go wrong with a Jeep.

 

[nhmountainman]

I bought a Jeep during the wait that will continue likely until late 2023 or even 2024. I don’t care a smidge about when it shows up. We love the Jeep. We know what it is and what it’s made for and what it can do. It’s a weekend rig that went off road almost every weekend all summer and this fall (so far). The family has had a blast with it. I have zero plans on selling the Jeep when/if the Bronco ever shows up.

 

[BulldogBear]

Thank you, hadn't considered that as an option!

As a small bonus, if you decide to trade in the FRaptor for the Bronco, you'll already be well acquainted w/the Ford ecosystem/sync/etc.

So, from your experience with it. What would you say about it if it was also your daily driver?
That's my biggest worry with a Jeep.
