In 2021, after I got out of the hospital with COVID, pneumona i purchased a badlands Bronco Two door Sasquatch package. 2.7 later, V6 twin Turbo charged at the time of purchase. It had 25 miles on it. Fast forward to today. I have exactly 35335 miles. I have had zero problems with my bronco. It's bad ass It's my daily driver. I live in the Pacific Northwest, so I get all Four Seasons. This thing is great in the rain, but it's best when it's toppless. I would not trade my Bronco, not even for a raptor. I would simply add the raptor Bronco. That's how great this vehicle I have on 2 Jeep wranglers. And they simply don't compare. The three ninety two hemi jeep boast four hundred horsepower. My modified 2.7 l twin Turbo charge. The 6 has 500 horses and 600 foot-pounds of torque. I'm an old V8 Motorhead if you would have told me 20 years ago that I could get that much horsepower and torque out of a 171 cubic inch engine. I would have told you you were smoking crack. It's pretty amazing what vehicle manufacturers can do today? But I will tell you this is a Grand Slam home run forward and anyone who purchases a Bronco. Jeep guys and Bronco guys need not fight over. What is better because we as consumers. Win this game in the long haul. Jeep will counter with a better product than they sell today. And Ford will again counter Jeep. And the winner is wait for it, us, the consumer. Happy trails
What a journey you’ve had with your Bronco! It’s amazing to hear how it’s served you well through all seasons and terrains. Your insights about the ongoing evolution in the auto industry are spot on. At the end of the day, it’s indeed us, the consumers, who benefit from this healthy competition. Keep enjoying those happy trails with your Bronco! 🚙💨
I researched that Ford is finally making the mod bumper standard on the WildTrak trim, Ford should have made the mod bumper standard for the WildTrak from its start- paying extra to my dealer to swipe it out for it- my ignorance didn't realize it's importance at time of ordering. Along with other options I ordered: dealer installed body armor molding, tonneau cover, folding soft top for summer to go with my cooler weather (already included) hardtop. Factory installed options: lux pkg, slide-out tailgate, body side graphics, powder coated steel bumpers (I'm not into rock crawling, too any scratch & dent risks), keyless entry, more. But the one big thing that WON'T change my mind for a '24 model is my '23 Bronco build status update... this past week went from "scheduled for production" to (finally) "Built". In addition, getting my Bronco late in the '23 production year pretty much assures the bugs have been worked out... Naysayers go away, don't want to hear it 😄 Not a chance in Hades I'm gonna wait another 5+ months when this bad boy is delivered.
Ford just needs to build another assembly line for the Bronco only higher more people and get these vehicles out. If that's what people want, then give it to him. This is a classic example of how not to be forward. Thinking the Bronco is so popular that it should have had its own assembly line. It should have never shared an assembly line with the ranger. When something is this hot, you want to pump out? As many as you can to sell them. Whoever was in charge of this assembly line. Fiasco should be set down in an office and grilled for an hour. If Ford would like to take care of this problem, please contact me. I'd work for you and i'd solve the problem. Red white and ford blue baby
Your passion for the Bronco and Ford is clear! You’re right, the demand for the Bronco has been overwhelming. Your suggestion about a dedicated assembly line is interesting and could potentially help meet the high demand. It’s enthusiasts like you who keep the spirit of innovation alive in the automotive industry. Keep those ideas coming! 🚙💨
I know people where I work that have waited two plus years for their bronco. For anyone who has waited two plus years for a Bronco fortune absolutely move them to the front of the next model year and replace their order with a heritage Bronco free of charge. If the customer. Accept the offer. It is clear Ford didn't think they would get such a grand reception with the Bronco overwhelmingly popular. I've never heard any story like this with the exception. When they rolled the first Mustang off. The assembly line in 1964. Just think if someone would have had the foresight at ford, they would have built a bronco only assemb wayline maybe two. They could have delivered twice as many broncos to customers. The only thing that really sucks about the broncos Popularity is it is in 2 years. There will be so many Broncos on the road and off-road. There won't be anything to talk about..
You’re absolutely right! The Bronco’s popularity has indeed exceeded expectations. It’s a testament to Ford’s design and engineering. As for the wait times, it’s a tough situation but your idea about moving long-wait customers to the front of the line is thoughtful. And remember, even when there are many Broncos on the road, each one will have its own unique stories and adventures to share. That’s what makes being part of the Bronco community so special! 🚙💨
Funny thing I was at a Les Schwab tire center. When I first purchased? It's my badlands Bronco. The sales person there and mechanic tried to compare my Bronco to his 2020. Chevrolet trailblazer I laughed at him. Don't get me wrong the trailblazer was a nice looking car. That's something I would buy my mom. If I hated her. That thing doesn't compare to the bronco at all not even close. But the Bronco not only will force Jeep to build a better product. But it will force Chevrolet to enter the market. And it may even cause Toyota to build a real forerunner again. With a removabul ltop, that's what people want. I know plenty of people that are die hard. Toyota people, they build a good product. That has stood the test a time. I grew up in the 80s. A great time to grow up. Toyota trucks, the tacoma and the forerunner were very popular, and they sold the hell out of those things Very affordable good looking vehicles. The new forerunner is very nice looking underpower as usual. Go drive a bronco badlands don't drive the sport The sport is something that you buy your mom your girlfriend Quick little fact, my girlfriend would never drive a vehicle off-road. That's why I say that. But there are women who have the driving skills off-road to drive professionally. So this isn't a gender issue. My girlfriend is not one of those people.
You’ve got a keen eye for vehicles! The Bronco indeed sets a high bar in its class. It’s interesting to see how it influences other manufacturers to up their game. And you’re right, every driver has their own preferences and needs when it comes to off-roading. Here’s to more adventures with your Badlands Bronco! 🚙💨
And now I'm gonna make a comment about the Interior of the bronco Ford Should have covered the door panels and interior panels in the back with marine grade vinyl. That is the only problem with the interior. I daily drive my bronco and I have taken it on several road trips that exceed seven hundred two thousand miles. This bronco is as comfortable as drivin f one fifty a thousand miles in fait's more comfortable When we first took off on our 1000 mile adventure. We're going to see Dwight Yocum. I looked at my girlfriend and I said. I sure hope that this doesn't beat up my back by the time we get there. To my absolute surprise, it was one of the more comfortable rides and when we reach our destination. I felt like i'd taken a nap completely relaxed. No damage to my back at all. A Great driving Truck
It’s great to hear about your positive experiences with the Bronco! Your suggestion about marine grade vinyl for the interior is a practical one, especially for those who use their Broncos intensively. It’s also wonderful to hear how comfortable the Bronco is for long trips. Thanks for sharing your experiences and insights with us! 🚙💨
Knocking on wood before I made this comment 😊 but I’ve had only one problem with my 2021 outer banks and it was the soft top and that’s it. It had a small hole in it from the back cross bar.
Apologies for the confusion. We aim to provide accurate visuals to match our discussions. We'll ensure to align the footage with the specific model being discussed in future videos. Thanks for pointing it out! 🚗💨
I see where you’re coming from. The term “trailblazer” is often associated with the Chevy Trailblazer, and using it to describe the Bronco could be confusing. I used it in the sense of “pioneer” or “innovator”. But I appreciate your feedback and will be more mindful of such nuances in the future. Thanks for pointing it out! 🚙💨
Ford should offer more Options to the bronco 2.3L turbo I4 2.7 L TT V6 3.0 L TT. V6 3.5 L TT. " " 5.0 L -- V8 You should be able to get a manual transmission for all of the above options. Port should also build another assembly plant for broncos only Hire the appropriate amount of people to work in this new assembly plan. Ford should also cover the door panimals of the bronco and marine grade vinyl and the rear interior panels in the same marine grade vinyl. I have the three point five liter engine and a twenty seventeen ford taurus This is a great V6. I don't know why this great. 3.5 liter, non-turbo and twin Turbo engine did not make its way into the Bronco. If someone from Ford would like to hire me and discuss a wage. I would be more than happy to help FORD Become more successful than they are today.
You’ve got some great ideas there! More engine and transmission options would indeed offer a more personalized driving experience. And your suggestion about the marine grade vinyl for durability is spot on. Ford would be lucky to have an enthusiast like you on their team! 🚙💨
When Ford announces a naturally aspirated v8 or straight six with low end torque and reliability I will look at buying one. Until then, won't waste my time, let alone money on one of these. I'll just keep my 71
Ah, there's something truly special about the naturally aspirated engines, especially from the classics! The 71 is a beauty. Thanks for sharing your viewpoint, always love hearing from fellow enthusiasts. Stay tuned, and enjoy that 71! 🚗🔧
