If You Could Go Back Before Buying Your Bronco, What Would You Do Differently?

[DOUBLED16]

Probably would have went manual since the whole reason I got the auto was because my wife said she was going to drive it and even test drove it with me but in the three years I've had it has not drove it once. Probably would have used that savings and added the Sasquatch package so I could get beefier tires and suspension without having to add my own wheels and tires but it's like an 8K option in Canada.

I would have gone with the Sasquatch package. I was an early reservation holder and ordered everything based on research and not actually seeing a Bronco in person. 33s are big tires on most vehicles, but for me they just weren’t doing it for me on the Bronco. It’s been a four year process in adding wheels I liked, then moving to 34s, then Bilstein 6100s, and finally just some 35s last week. In the end it’s now a unique-to-me Bronco, but if I could go back I would, and I would’ve spent less money in the process.

I'd have insisted on 4a. My two big things were 2 doors, and manual. I'd have added 4a to the list. A rear locker would be nice to have, though that can be retrofit in a way that 4a just can't.

Don’t confuse the SAS Territory tires with “beefier’’ They are bigger than the non-sas KOs but very flimsy otherwise. Checkout their weight and sidewall rating.

Ya you're right...sorry it was more for the "look" which is what I should have said. My off-road journeys would be few and far between.

I would not do anything different. Was at dealership last year and didn't know anything about the Bronco trims or packages. Got luck and found my 2021 OBX SAS Lux with winch and steel front bumper with only 1,990 miles on it. This is my favorite car/truck/suv I have owned my whole life.

Wouldn't change anything! This is probably the last new vehicle I'll buy as I am about to retire. Made a reservation for a 2 door Badlands with Sasquatch, 2.7, lux and tow. Didn't get built until 2023. Wish they had the the HOS 3.0 when I bought but I wouldn't want to be limited to the 2.3 just because it's a 2 door. Almost finished with mods as all the extra skid plates are sitting in the garage since Christmas (transmission, front A arms, transmission x member and rear shock) waiting to install. Just recently added the winch mount to the pile and the winch and front frame horn braces arrived yesterday. I get that all strapped on and I'm good. Not planning on going bigger on tires. Only thing going forward will be Bilstein 8112's when I wear out the original shocks.

First day reservation holder. Held out for the two door.
Started as the base. My wonderful wife was involved so by the time we ordered it was a 2.7 Area 51, Badlands Sasquatch, mid package with the factory tow package and modular bumper. Wouldn’t change a thing.

Nothing. No regrets.

Would have added aux switches and the mod bumper. Other than that, extremely happy with my rig.

 

[RedDawg]

Would’ve put my order in on Day 1. I hemmed and hawed until Aug.

Should’ve waited for the factory tow installation. I dropped it to get mine quicker.

I might’ve stuck with the Sasquatch pkg on my Base, but I convinced myself I didn’t need it. I was correct. It’d still be cool to have that Sqatch decal though….

I would have waited and bought a leftover Raptor Bronco.

 

[Bronco21Maybe]

I bought used. I always buy used and the wife gets new. I had been watching this red 2 door 7 speed and it sold. I would have bought it instead of my carbonized gray one. Used 2 door 7 speeds in my area were few and far between.

 

[BluebroncoNC]

Nothing.

I might have avoided stopping in the turn lane that led to my first Bronco's demise.
