Not sure what you mean- from what I gather from this forum, MOST members who have received the bronco love it. Then you have subgroups from that- the “diehards” who will defend every mentioned issue with “don’t buy one then” or “it’s an off-road vehicle not a mini van” (although I don’t think the outer banks trim is marketed as an off road machine). They’ve excused Ford for every issue (MIC top, 2.7 valve bad batch, windshield recall, etc) and just cannot fathom a buyer having a less than 100% stellar opinion of EVERY part of the bronco.
Then there are those of us who love their Bronco and enjoy it immensely but are open minded to point out issues or flaws in hopes that they get noticed and addressed by Ford and improve future bronco production. They are commonly berated by the die hards for having the gumption to point out anything negative or annoying about the bronco or Ford. Again, see MIC 1.0, 2.7 issues, etc.
I’m sure there are a few haters on here, but they are overwhelmingly outnumbered by those who love the bronco. It’s a tremendous vehicle but it’s not perfect. In any case, this is a forum and open discussion should be encouraged, not thwarted by either the diehards or the haters.
You're right, many if not most love it. Guess I got a little triggered with some of these posts that say things like its junk and you are a fan boy if you don't agree. Of course the Bronco is not perfect, some of us are happy with its level of equipment, hard plastic, etc. I get it that many on here are used to lux vehicles. The Bronco is a Bronco. It sucks at being a Lexus and excels at being a Bronco, and that is the way it should be in my opinion.

I should create a YT channel with my hot-wife soley for the clicks of the leg humpers, and get paid to talk about a few things I like and everything I don't like.

That video was about as biased as you can get.
How much did he get from Bilstein to wear that t-shirt?

Clowns...
From YouTube alone they are probably making $10k/mo. Add on merchandise and sponsors, etc. and it's not a bad living. OF is probably WAY more than $10k/mo.

So you need to ask yourself, just how hot is your wife?

Not really a spoiler. Firstly that Jeep is lifted and modified right? A lot of this is subjective and opinion. Jeeps aren't exactly known for stellar build quality and fit & finish. Also are these people long time Jeep fans? Any comparison can be biased. Remember, its all about the money!

No hate here, they found their hustle. I watch their channel from time to time and watched them take a brand new 392 and have it chopped at AMW and a demon crate motor put in, easily $200K + vehicle.

I had a 2015 JK (2 dr) with a small lift and 35s from the dealer. I had it a couple of years, not a single failure or build quality issue. There was a lot to like about that JK, very nimble, unbelievable heat and AC, looked great. It just laughed at several inches of snow.

However, short wheelbase and 35's... It did not like highway speeds. On a smooth road it steered just fine but bump steer was a real thing. It changed lanes after hitting a bump at 70mph, that was exciting.

When I get my 2dr Badlands I'm very curious to compare it in the same road conditions.

If somebody doesn't like or is so disappointed in their Bronco then SELL IT!

Go ahead and Sell it to some unsophisticated Ford Fan Boi that's been drooling for over 2 years waiting on on a Vin and a prayer.

Go ahead and Sell your Bronco for a profit even in this ADM abused market.

Go ahead, take the Money and Run, Bobbie Sue!

Hey everyone, thanks for all the kind words and fun read. Im
Super happy to hear that some of your builds are solid and have no issues. No rattles, no squeaky interior, no paint blemishes, quiet soft tops (idk how you managed that one) no plastic and cheap feeling interior. Ours unfortunately must have been built on a Friday holiday weekend and for that, I’m sorry. I wish we got one with the quiet soft top option and secure and sturdy grab handles. I really wish we knew to order the nicer, stitched leather dash. Let’s hope that the Bronco Raptor we have on order will be built during the week & not before a holiday, and that the fit and finish lives up to its price tag. We’re genuinely glad that Ford stepped up to the plate to bring out competition for the Wrangler, as the Bronco is an amazing vehicle in its own right that suits the needs of most people - as most people will never be willing or able to find the capability limits of their vehicle (be it Bronco or Wrangler).

However, if you’re upset about the faults we pointed out on the Bronco & believe our video was one-sided, you can always cheer yourself up by watching all of our videos throughout the years where we’ve openly and honestly showed/demonstrated/discussed all of the issues with our Wrangler. Maybe starting with the video where our stock Jeep nearly killed us with a steering failure? Or the one where it almost left us stranded with a faulty secondary battery? Pick your fancy, as there’s dozens and dozens to choose from!

From there, if you still think we’re biased, you’re welcome to join all of the die-hard Jeep people who also think we’re biased because they don’t like it when we say the Wrangler is less than perfect…just like the Bronco.

Lol at her outfit. I refuse to take opinions from some idiot on the internet, especially one trying to monetize on YouTube with a “4X4 girl” wearing a skirt and a mid-riff shirt.
And that's not the only website she monetizes her body/appearance... I can't take them seriously nor care what their opinion is on the Bronco. Opinions are like assholes, everyone has one.

We have been wheeling our Bronco as often as we can since we got it in March of this year after ordering it in March of 2020. I have been into rock crawling and four-wheeling my whole life, and I started off-roading when I got my License, but with Suzuki Samurais.

Our channel may not be fancy, but it is a learning curve.

So far we installed 37's, RCV's (not because of breakage, but for insurance) both broncbuster steering rack upgrades and jks tie-rod sleeves. I bought the Zone 3" lift, but only used the front spacer as I wanted to keep the Bronco low after seeing how tall they are in person with a 3" lift.

If you want to actually see someone wheel their Bronco check out our channel. Hopefully, my editing skills and content creation get better with time.

lifeb4work youtube channel.

It rockcrawls great, but you have to drive it like it has IFS.

So with all the years of off Roading ( and documented through youtube), racing and drifting giving a very good understanding of the capabilities of both vehicles they both gave their unbiased review and you are disregarding all of it because she is attractive? Wow, that is bad. People, they said it is a very good higher speed offroader that rides nice. The fit and finish has been pretty well documented.

Have a Badlands Sasquatch so paid on the upper end of the average. It's been my favorite vehicle I've ever owned by a long shot. I have some family that complain every time they go out to eat even if the meal was good. Some people just like to complain.
