    This was actually why I went with the Base. You have so many things you can do to at your own pace. I have a 22’ base 4d and I love. I’m taking my time with how I want to build it up waiting for companies to come out with aftermarket designs.

    • @forgivemylaughter
      @forgivemylaughter Před rokem

      Same. Carbonized Gray. 2 inch lift and 35’s is the next and biggest game changer upgrade. Lots of little things have been done. I’ve learned unless it’s one of the high end models the first 4 models or so are pretty much the same as combos of add ones can exist on any trim. For example mine came with few add one, aux switches, sound deadening head boards, exterior keypad lock. Really all I needed. Added the rubber Ford mats all round and, grabbed a passenger assist grab handle online. To be honest I love the Base black and dark grey color way. I don’t like the look of the red, blue or orange interior trims. I’ve always like black interiors so for me it was the best choice. Another plus is you can really choose whatever leather you want down the road. The leather that comes with the trims are limited colors.

    I remember a saying, "If you cant buy it twice you shouldnt buy it" or something like that, best I could ever do for a new car would probably be like 35k-38k MAX and the fact these are 40k+ for a base model 4 cylinder cloth seats, basic steelies is crazy to me!

    The Base Bronco is all I want, but it’s not affordable. Future Ford of Sacramento wants 59k for a base 4 door. Fairfield Ford was charging 7k over for their 2 door base models. Fairfield sold their inventory at a mark up this March. People are financing, dealers are marking up. Not going to change until people go broke.

    You can’t even order a base Bronco and they are really hard to find on the dealer lots. I saw a base the other day looked like it had a 2 or 1 1/2 inch lift with what looked like 33s and it really looked nice. It had some really nice touches like the old school chrome Bronco on the sides and outlined the Bronco lettering on the grill in the body color to make it pop it was a cool little build that probably didn’t take much money.

    • @edwarddejong8025
      @edwarddejong8025 Před rokem +1

      You can order the base again. You might have to wait a while though. They are only making about 10k of these a month, it is in high demand, but they are prioritized inside Ford because this is a very important vehicle for Ford; they are taking about half of Jeep's market, which is a big win for Ford, because they haven't had a competitor for a very long time.

Well with dealer's high MSRP prices with add on's most of us can only afford the lower range of models. The only dealer's that just give us everything in all packages is Subaru. They rarely even hit us on MSRP. That's the way they should all be with safety and tech included. Thanks for the awesome review as always Ben.

    It reminds me of the Bronco II I used to have. Personally I think that’s what this reiteration should be called. And there should be a full size version built on a truck frame. But we’ve got a new generation of engineers who ooze with arrogance and they’d rather tell you what you should want as opposed to asking. The worse part is you have a generation of sheep that like it that way. And I’ve checked web sites they are few and far between. And it’s rarer still to find one that isn’t marked up thousands over the MSRP.

    The side hinged tailgate is hinged wrong for the American Market as one must walk around the tailgate when loading from curbside.

    Nearly $40K for a Base model. So wrong in so many ways.

    ford REALLY counted on the "body design" to sell this steaming pile of technology

    It would be affordable if dealers weren't adding 15K onto it

    38,000 for a base model. That's messed up,and it's a four cylinder. It's like gm,with the base Colorado, and canyon, they'll run about 34 plus. It's ridiculous.

    Not affordable at all for what it is. You could get a used rubicon for around the same price that has so much more to offer.

    Over price by the time you put tax license transfer dealer fees you’re gonna be paying about 39 for this space model that’s drug dealer money

    I sometimes really dislike this guys videos bc the titles are a little….misleading. He says “best trim ever”, etc, but he would never buy it and the only he would ever get is the bronco raptor.
    I guess my point is, don’t recommend shit you’d never buy yourself bc anyone whose been watching you for a decent amount of time knows you only buy “hype” vehicles and the most sought after trims.
