No factory soft top two door

no manual behind the 2.7

warthog will come out next year(hopefully with the 5.0)

maybe I should get a less optioned out 4cyl with the plan of an aftermarket 5.0?

I haven’t bought a brand new car since ‘02-big deal for me

thoughts?

currently have an fj40 for offroad use and an AWD conversion van for family use.
The bronco looks super bad and to me, the most exciting vehicle in 20 years.....buuuut I have no car payment now, if I’m taking on a payment for a truck I don’t “need” shouldn’t it be the one I want?

In my completely unbiased opinion considering I’m a yotahead, take the money saved from the Bronco and throw it @ the FJ to make it DD-able. Then flip on BaT, buy 3 base broncos, profit?? ?

To further support my objective, non-jaded opinion — this owner would also love to see said photos of the ol’ cruiser.

I mostly keep the top off the fj40

that’s the other thing. I have a Chevy equinox for my work as a dd. I can give that up and get a stipend of 450 a month and drive my own vehicle. But now I have all the liability if I get into an accident or have a mechanical failure.

I've been looking around. I've been waiting for a few years now ever since news leaked that the Bronco was coming back.

The way Ford is handling this is upsetting, to say the least. Options for one but not the other. Day of announcement not able to reserve the 1st Edition because of so-called computer problems with area Dealers. An email telling me theTop I thought I was getting is not gonna be available W/O another long Wait. I've purchased several new Fords (7-UP, Boss 302, LE, 1st year Lighting, among others) they were Limited but not that hard to order on day one of the announcements. They were delivered without surprises or ridiculous delays (I know, Covid is partly to blame)

I'm about to jump ship...Now go ahead (Not you, OP) and thank me for Maybe someone to move up a notch or give me SH!T!

I assumed the limited bronco was never really available to the general public and that was a marketing ploy

I had a 2013 sho and loved it. Rented a mustang with the 4 cyl turbo (same I think? 2.3?) and thought it was ok, not “fast” but ok

So, you just created a profile so you could troll?

You're exactly right, you should cancel your reservation.

Happy trails....

You can’t troll a troll

bronco is super sick. Upset I can’t get the options I want....but want the truck to succeed. So, I’m not a troll, just bitter.
