You can't compare that to the boring Toyota engine.I did, for two days. Here I am…
I really would like to know this since I have leather on order. However I'm confused... Did you say you have your Bronco now and have driven it a few hundred miles and see this wear? On other threads you say you don't have yours yet. Just trying to understand if this is real world proof or just speculation?My 2016 TRD Pro has 46k miles and the seats look new, the Bronco leather seats looked stretched and worn after a few hundred miles. I loathe early wear on seats, especially bolsters, always turns me off.
Apologies, I’ll clarify. I don’t have mine, it’s still on DM. The wife will have her Bronco tomorrow, same trim as mine but Cyber Orange and a soft top.I really would like to know this since I have leather on order. However I'm confused...

I’m certainly not comparing drivetrains, I ordered the 2.3L with the MT, plenty more power than my 4Runner.You can't compare that to the boring Toyota engine.
There are probably any number of pavement geared SUVs that would better meet your wife's needs. Even though in your particular situation it bites, overall it's actually a good thing your wife didn't like the Bronco. Else we'd all probably be looking at some more lux pavement oriented SUV called Bronco.On the way back from dinner tonight we pass a dealer and see an antimatter blue, big bend sasquatch! My wife actually pointed it out and asked me to stop so we can check it out and take it for a test drive. I couldn't pull over fast enough!
I hunt, fish, tow and haul so a truck is a must for me and I'll never not own a truck. However, I had an '82 bronco as my first vehicle so I will always have a soft spot for a bronco.
My wife is next up for a new vehicle, so my Bronco 6g inspired plan was to subtly convince the wife that the bronco was the perfect vehicle for her!
She is always driving with the windows down and sunroof open, likes sporty convertible cars, but wants an SUV because we have dogs. She likes the way jeeps look, loves the way the four runner looks.....so I thought the bronco would be a slam dunk, best of all worlds.
Well unfortunately after the test drive I think my dream is dead. She was completely unimpressed. Her main issues is she thought it was cheap. When I pressed her on what specifically she mentioned all the interior plastic and buttons. She thought the soft top looked awful, admittedly it was sagging, my head hit at only 6' 3". She didn't like the rear seat setup and how the seats didn't fold flat.
We both agreed the noise level was surprisingly good and the acceleration was solid.
We both agreed it rode better than a jeep (recently rented one in Hawaii this past summer) especially at speed, but both thought my truck Ram Power Wagon rides better (must be the longer wheel base and smaller 33s).
All in all, I really liked it, but my wife wasn't impressed at all. Unless Ford updates the interior dramatically and puts a nice hardtop on it in the next couple years, I think she is going four runner....ugh.
My wife and I have known one another so long(since age 15, and we are both 56 years old) that she doesn't care what vehicles I buy as long as she doesn't have to drive them. When I bought a new boat in 2018(26' Cobalt R5 Surf), I let her have a little input on the color scheme by showing her two choices that I picked out. I don't tell her what clothes, jewelry, or shoes to buy, and she stays out of my decisions on guns, boats, skis, cars, fishing gear, snowmobiles, trucks, etc. She also gets to make all the home design/remodel decisions as long as I get my kegerator - a fair arragnement IMO. At our age, we've both earned the right to get what we want.All wife's are going to be different....dump her and get a new wife from the Bronco Dating Site...just don't do that... my wife really likes both the Bronco and the Jeep...I guess I'm the lucky one. She wasn't all that wild about the Corvette or the other cars...lol.
I gotta disagree with this comment. I went and recently looked at the 4Runner it makes the Bronco interior feel cheap. I’ve been In Both a base and wild track and driven each.Have you been in a 4Runner? Because Toyota interiors make Fords feel a like a Mercedes.
Do you have 6 foot legs?I don't know how your head hit the soft top. I am 6'7 and I have 5 inches over my head of head room.
32 inch inseam. All of my height is in my body.Do you have 6 foot legs?
This is not true at all. I have 2k miles on mine and it looks like no one has used it.I really would like to know this since I have leather on order. However I'm confused...

This sounds like a great arrangement for both of you.My wife and I have known one another so long(since age 15, and we are both 56 years old) that she doesn't care what vehicles I buy as long as she doesn't have to drive them. When I bought a new boat in 2018(26' Cobalt R5 Surf), I let her have a little input on the color scheme by showing her two choices that I picked out.

Im the opposite, all my height is in my legs32 inch inseam. All of my height is in my body.
Two minute search on the Facebook Bronco group, you decide. If they look slightly worn now, imagine after 10k miles.This is not true at all. I have 2k miles on mine and it looks like no one has used it.
