Rick, I've always heartily agreed with and enjoyed your comments. But you just compared the bronc to a Corolla ?

Out the door price you may be right, but over time that bronco will get increasingly more expensive due to gas mileage
I'd think the depreciation factor would make the increasing Bronco costs negligible. Time will tell, but I'd assume a Bronco with 100K miles will hold more of its base value than a Corolla with 100K. This is obviously a bit of an apples to oranges comparison still, but based on how current Jeeps and F-series depreciate I'd expect a Bronco to be similar in the secondary markets. So up-front and operating costs are more, but it retains the value.

My current ride is a Fusion with 60K on it and I'm only not trading it in because I won't get squat for it. A 10 year old F-150 with 150K miles on it has more market value than my car and the MSRPs aren't that different. That's also why I bought the car used, but plan to buy my Bronco new.

I actually ordered base sasquatch. The only issue that I have with base, base is you can't get locking differential without going sasquatch. Otherwise I would be fine with the wheels with taller tires.

True, I would expect bronco to hold value but it's too new to know for certain. Also, don't discount how well Toyotas hold value!
