No, when they go off road they drive the FJ cruiser...

99.99% of almost anyone's driving is on road. Can't my wife have fun too?
Funny you should say that. I'm living that now.

I would love to hear more about the process and cost on getting the MIC painted. Love your LB FE. You can DM me if you don't feel comfortable sharing that information publicly.

Scarcity and fantasy are a driving force. Humans can be attracted to things perceived as having exclusivity and that are hard to get. Bronco is the COVID toilet paper. :)

And Bronco can provide a lot of fantasy value. You don't generally buy a raised up vehicle with mud tires, skid plates and lockers (much less multiple of the same vehicle) because it makes sense for only pavement. (Those are actually some of the last features you'd design into a vehicle to excel on pavement.) Fantasy use is a motivator.

I'm involved with some other vehicle makes, and while scarcity and fantasy can play a part, I've never seen anything close to how it plays out with Broncos. Probably over time it will dissipate.

Meh, logic is a pretty flower that smells awful.

Whatever floats your boat, I guess.

I'm one of those people who wants one of everything, having two of something seems like it would be boring.

Wanted a 2Dr, was told I’d never be able to get my hands on one- so bought a 4Dr. Fast forward a couple years, my 2Dr is now built and awaiting shipment. The plan was always to trade in the 4Dr, but we really do love it. We might end up as a two Bronco family, and that won’t bother me one bit because it truly is my favorite vehicle I’ve owned.

Both Tops are painted and the fenders as well on the raptor and full PPF on both. As for process both were done by Extreme Offroad Performance in Katy Texas. The black one cost me $1850 for the painted top.

Most of the posts I've seen are spouses getting a Bronco each. If there are individual owners with more than one Bronco...good for them? I have a Bronco and Tacoma, but I'd never replace either with a second unit of either because each is fulfilling its role just fine for me.

You could probably answer the one owner:multiple Bronco question by asking sneakerheads why they buy multiple copies of the same shoes (answer: it's a quirk, and there's rarely a practical motivation)

Have you driven a 2dr? It is rewarding to drive. Windy road, sand, snow whatever, it makes me grin sometimes...

So much fun driving the 2 door, nimble, quick, and they can turn around a dime

The four door definitely drives a lot different than 2 door. Even when comparing sas and non sas.
