Second toy vehicle.
Daily is AMG wagon, although the Bronco gets better gas mileage… so maybe I should switch.

Hey, same here, buddy!Daily driver and will be replacing my 2019 Ranger FX4
"Rather serious overkill" sounds just about right!My current only car is a 2016 “Dodge” (really some weird FIAT/Alfa Romeo/Mercedes Benz/Hyundai/Chrysler mongrel) Dart. I usually work on construction sites, often with very rough terrain to cross getting in and out of them. I have yet to encounter anything that my Dart couldn't cross, but I've often had to cross stuff that it was clear that my Dart would very much prefer to stay away from, if it had the choice, and I've often been afraid that I'd either break my car, or get it stuck.
That's a major part of my motive for wanting the Bronco, to have a vehicle that is not nearly so scary to drive in and out of rough construction sites. The washout interior will be very nice, too, given how much construction-site dirt winds up inside my Dart, and how difficult it is to clean that out.
So, for my rough-terrain needs, the Bronco is admittedly, rather serious overkill. Especially since wanting the washout interior, being hard-set on some of the options that are in the High Package at the lowest, and wanting some of the features in the Lux package, my choice is narrowed to the“Extreme Off-Roading” Badlands trim. If I could have had the washout interior and the Lux package on the Base, or perhaps even better yet, a much more of an à la carte selection of the specific features I actually want, I might very well have gone with that.
I'm buying the Bronco to take me places where I need to go, that my Dart can take me, but would really rather not. Once I have my Bronco, I'll be itching to find places that it can take me, that my Dart absolutely cannot.
