What rig / vehicle did you give up to get your Bronco?
2017 Tacoma, gave the kid the option of a new Bronco base or aused 17's Taco with 60k miles, Tacoma was worth more so I made out about 3k up!
Watch those SPC arms, I had to warranty 2 sets of ball joints in 6 months as they kept failing. You have to pump grease in them every month to keep them from failing.Currently have 2 vehicles with a 24 WT on order. Iām told by the boss, that 1 of them has to go. Problem is, I canāt imagine getting rid of either of them. 2015 wrangler with fox 2.5ā lift on 33ās. Ton of upgrades. And a lifted 2019 Tundra Limited. 3 inch lift with 33 WPās. Just spent 3000 on it, with SPC UCAās and new suspension. The jeep sucks on long trips, but I love it. And love jeeps. Iām sure itās harder before you actually have the new bronco, to figure out a decision.

Wanted to order a Bronco when they first came out but didn't want to wait. Leased a 2021 Honda Ridgeline Sport short term hoping to find a Bronco locally if anyone back out of an order. Jan 2023 still looking but the lease was up on the Ridgeline. Traded into the new 2023 CRV Hybrid Sport Touring. Yeah I liked the 38 MPG but boring as hell. Finally found my 2023 Wildtrak at a dealer 4 hours away. Lost money on the CRV trade but not regretting the 17 MPG at all 
. First car in a long time that excites me. Puts a smile on my face every time I drive It.

I gave up my 2012 F150 XLT. Loved that truck. Two months after driving it across country to move from NJ to CA, the Bronco fell into my lap.
2023 Toyota 4Runner TDR Pro, 1500 miles. Traded in because by Bronco I waited for so long came in.

Not all that long ago, the wifely one and I had matching Land Rover LR3's, same, color inside and out, VIN within 1000 units, and really the LR3 may be peak LR. Hers was a bit of a maintenence pig (freakin lemon ) and mine was weld the hood shut reliable. They are heavy and complex and oh so comfortable and on the few times we took them offroad they are amazing. We were waitinf for the new Defender and when it finally arrived, well, really underwhelmed. And right as we were resigned to maybe upgrading to LR4's, here comes a highly placed Ford executive driving a Bronco Sport test mule into a local gas station. It was follow that car, within 24 hours she had built hers online and ordered. There goes the first LR3!
It took a while before I jumped in and ordered my 2 door. There goes the second LR3.
In the meantime between selling the Rover and actually getting it built, we had a summertime romance with a Rubicon. It was the best of Jeep, it was the worst of Jeep. It was built for overlanding by owners who never took it off road at all, so we treated it to some quality time on Drummond and the local two tracks. We have miles of old railroad grades and logging roads.

My F250. It was my dream truck but the bronco is my dream vehicle.
These pics were taken 24 hrs apart. The Jeep was sold, my Bronco order had shipped, someone turned into my left side from the opposite direction texting on their phone as i was driving down the highway at 55 mph. spun twice and rolled 3 times. Windows down no belt, I walked away. 9 days later i flew 850 miles to pick up my Bronco.
Gave up my F150. First time not having a truck.
I gave up 2 vehicles. 1 on purpose and 1 by force thanks to SF criminals.
Ram 1500 - loved it but took it off road a lot and it started giving me issues.
Audi A8 4.0T - Really loved this car, but some real nice people decided they needed in really bad and broke every window and solar roof in SF while at Alcatraz and insurance totalled at over $35k in damages. Now my Raptor is my daily and loving it. Miss the Audi for sure.
