I'm running long tube headers, no cats and a Corsa exhaust on my 5th Gen Camaro SS. She's a bit on the loud side lol. I'll miss the way kiddos still get excited and car guys give the nod when she rolls by.
Why do you think that will go away with the Bronco?

Will miss the decent tow rating and a truck bed. I'm hoping I won't miss the reliability, but that remains to be seen.

Will miss having no car payment, but definitely planning on restoring that functionality ASAP.

I'm going to sell it privately, but that point is moot. This has been hands down the best little car I've ever owned. I had never owned a Honda before I met my wife, but since then we've had a Civic, her current 2013 Pilot with 173,000 on it that has only needed the recommended maintenance and a set of rear shocks, and my 2018 Accord sport 2.0T. They have all been fantastically sound automobiles, to my pleasant surprise. Honda knocked the design on this latest rendition of the Accord out of the park, IMO. And the little 2.0T is a super fun little power train when put into sport mode, and still sips the petrol. Wish I could justify keeping it, but no need for 3 cars, and the wife refuses to part with her Pilot. 🤷‍♂️

@Fedexman1978, I had an 08 Pilot. Loved it. Did all of the required maintenance—normal wear stuff. We had it for eight years and 180,000 miles when the engine blew☹. Maybe hold onto the Accord😜.

my ‘13 Accord has a huge amount of back row legroom, huge gas tank range, and I’ll miss the automatic transmission.

You shut your filthy mouth! 🤣 Thanks for the heads up! I'll show this to my wife and beg her to punt the Pilot and keep my ride.....not sure why I typed that. Lord knows that woman doesn't listen to me.

The lack of V8 sound? That's what usually gets the kids excited. That and the whole Transformer connection. Yes, Bumblebee was yellow but I've still had kids ask if my orange one was an Autobot. The Bronco will probably get some thumbs up but it'll be for its looks. Not the way it sounds.

@Fedexman1978, I'm not gonna lie; it was the wife’s car, and she does drive fast. Honestly, though, we did have quite a few trips to Florida, so a lot of highway miles.

Selling the F150 and Excursion... don’t think I’ll really miss anything... I believe I’ll be too excited to have the Bronco.

Going to miss the truck bed for sure. This guy has been reliable and fun to drive, but the bronco is my dream machine, so this one goes out to pasture.

TDIs are the absolute best. I'm on my second TDI Jetta Sportwagen and my daughter has an A3 TDI. I will drive that car forever. Waiting for the post-fix warranty to expire so I can ditch the DPF.
