Why Own Multiple Broncos?

[BlueOvalBandit]

I always find it kind of odd when a couple owns matching vehicles if it's some generic crossover or something. Enthusiast cars make more sense.

My wife wants a moardoor now. So I guess you could say we still would only have one Bronco.

Well from what I remember way back your Bronco was built more for the fun side of things and would suck as a regular driver (I just remember tires with 55 mph speed rating).

In this case I can see the two Bronco case, one built for play and one for everyday.

Oh I swap those out for play days. It's still my daily. It probably wouldn't make a great daily if I had multiple young kids though.

I only hate on the flippers who have been keeping the barrier to entry too high for many fellow enthusiasts.

Oh man, your wife has amazing taste in vehicles.

I'd buy a second just cause I'm to lazy to keep swapping wheels and tires lol.

Question is Why not have more than 1. I tried but timing was off and couldn't afford both. They both came a year earlier than I expected. Could only keep one.

So, I am now a 2 Bronco Family as daily drivers. We actually only have the 2 Broncos (and my motorcycle). Both 2 doors!

Short story:
I snagged a demo 2 door OBX November 2021 as a replacement to my J**p Wrangler 4 door and LOVE/LOVED the Bronco. I reserved a Bronco July 2021 and ordered a 22 then re-ordered a 23.

My ordered Bronco finally got built so we sold the wifes SHO and bought my reserved/ordered Bronco Badlands basically because it made more financial sense (used vehicle values sky rocketed again) and I was super tired of the SHO. She took the Outer Banks as hers and I took the new Badlands. She is driving the OBX and if she gets tired of it/decides she wants something different, we'll trade it in for whatever she wants.

Long version/reasoning:

I'm 6'3" tall and weigh 300 pounds, so I'm large and wide, LOL. I hate climbing out of vehicles and hate the B pillar touching my left arm/shoulder. The 2 door Bronco is very roomy and comfortable for driver and front seat passenger AND drives very nicely. I snagged the first Bronco and was in love! the 4 door Bronco isn't nearly as roomy due to shorter front door. I don't want a 4 door AT ALL.

The wife had an SHO w/moonroof (actually our 3rd virtually identical SHO) as her daily driver and I was frankly tired of it. My head was constantly touching the headliner even with seat back all the way, down all the way and leaned back some. SUPER ANNOYING. Plus I had to climb up and out of it and the B Pillar was in front of my shoulder which is also SUPER ANNOYING. So I was hoping she was going to like the OBX and be OK with us selling/trading in her SHO and driving the Bronco as a daily.

We were able to put huge down payments on both of them so if/when the wife wants something else, we will have huge amount of equity for whatever she wants to buy. So far she's happy!

Oh heck, get a fleet of them:

Sometimes I want to go to Home Depot, but my wife wants to go to Costco, at the same time. How we going to do that without two Broncos - duh!?

There's a hole in your logic. This scenario requires 4 Broncos, you'll need 2 at each store to fit everything.

Best argument for 2 Broncos that I've seen so far.

Thinking about starting a Youtube channel where I continue to destroy Bronco's by driving like an idiot, hoping to collect a fan base who applaud me for testing my Bronco's "to the limit". Thinking of a catchy name like BroncoBroken. Thus two Bronco's one being a back-up when I roll or Bust the first one.

People who get multiples of the same cars are the ones who go to the same restaurant and sit at the same table every Saturday. They like what the know even though it might get boring.

I've seen several husband and wife teams who each want one. Sometimes a 2 door and a 4 door. Personally, I'd like to spread the vehicle capabilities (e.g., one 4x4, one sports car, one more practical ride). But some folks like the same car.

Exactly me right now. But with coffee ahahah
