The money you save getting a Bronco over the Jeep should go into that lift.

I am intrigued.

9000 lbs? Here, let me crab walk into this tree.

Just B&Ped that similarly equipped Wrangler Rubicon at about $18k more than I paid for my Squatched Badlands. No thanks. That $18k can go into mods.

Wrangler Rubicons with the Xtreme Recon package (factory 35s) are really the only in-segment competition to compare to. Anything else is not a valid comparison. That said, stated ground clearance on that package is 12.9". Bronco needs to step it up.

Some people are doing it already.

Bronco Raptors have 4 doors and thus are not real Broncos. (also gaudy)

Perhaps comparing a 6th generation Bronco to a lifted 40+ year old SFA vehicle is kinda apples to oranges. These new ones can't even take a couple inches without snapping tie rods.

Who is doing a solid front axle outside of the Wrangler these days?

Rock crawling is more of a spectrum though, isn't it? You're coming to understand the limitations of your rig.

If I had your AMB, I'd be all over that Base Base in chrome. Jay Leno knows.

Auto engine shut off?

But did you get your $100 fully refundable deposit back?

There are some things about the wait for the production of the Bronco that are significant emotional events. To get pushed to the next model year just to have your options dropped for example (cyber orange! 🤬). Having to wait for your Bronco is not. Detach yourself from the emotion...
