I've been waiting a year for my ordered Bronco. My daily driver "expired" so to speak... then my secondary didn't work out.
Being fed up at that point, I decided to look for another vehicle. I found a used 2021 F150 that i believe I'm going to be much happier with than the Bronco!
I'm in love with this truck. I can't stop driving it. It's hard to want to get out of it when I get home.

not knocking the bronco, as it's a purpose built rig for off road, they have great tech, the 2.7 L EB is a great match, and look great.

However, I test drove a wildtrak and it was nice, but not something i could live with on a daily basis - road noise was bad, ride was way too soft, felt tight for me and not as much room in the back for tall passengers, and limited towing and cargo capability.

I love the Bronco look and all but I test drove one and it would not make me happy for a daily driver.

Coming from driving a 2-door Jeep Wrangler, None of those things seemed to matter to me, until I had them lol. now that i realize how nice this truck is. I dont miss my jeep at all.

Glad to hear you're enjoying it. Any plans for it?

Gonna level it as soon as possible, for ground clearance and ease of chain installation. Pull the lower bumper fascia, and probably the Borla S-type exhaust, so I can cold-start it at 5 a.m. and have my revenge on my neighbor with his '32 Ford down the street. 😬

Didn’t know there was a big wait on the Bronco’s. I snapped this last week at Wayne Assembly while waiting for my contractor between pours. I love the throw back color and wheels, my cousin from the Deep South had one, same color scheme, we tore up the levee’s down on the Mississippi delta long before any of us were legal to drive.

I turned in my 2018 F150 and daily drove a four door bronco with the sasquatch package for about 6 months. Like some others have said, I loved the throw back look and it was not too bad as a daily, but I missed having the extra room in the bed of the F150, and towing with the Bronco was kind of a pain, due to the spare tire. Also, the wind noise with the soft top was annoying. Love my 2022 F150 and glad to be back in a pickup!!
