I always liked the looks of Wranglers. But the blue one looks like what would happen if you let Pep Boys design a Jeep.

Yeah, what happened to iconic silver? Is that supposed to be “gray”?

Yeah I saw that and you’re right. There was another reality show something like “Alaska Offroad Warriors”. Six rigs started in southern Alaska and drove off road to Prudohe Bay. Two of the 6 vehicles were 4Runners. They were very capable. One was a POS 4 banger that looked not well...

Really enjoyed your review, since my order is a Wildtrak outfitted like yours. I did opt for silver. I was especially curious about your 4Runner comparisons. I currently drive a 2017 4Runner Limited and like it a lot. The interior fit and finish is superb although the engine seems anemic at...

Have you ever heard of an Edsel? Edit: oops, Td66 beat me to it.

Not sure about the difference for Badlands but I noticed Wildtrak isn’t listed. Hmmm…no fans for Wildtrak. Probably that “high-speed off- roading” stuff keeps temperatures down. In other words, I got nothing.

Again, I don’t think this will be a problem on the 6G Bronco. Looking at the photo of the underside of the hood at the top of this thread, there appears to be more substantial section reinforcement. But in all of the the work I did on my EB when it had a steel hood, I never once had the rod...

So hood struts have been a popular thing on EB’s for those of us addicted to resto-modding them. But the problem is the EB hood is very weak but also very heavy. So it took a strut with a very high lifting capacity. Many of us learned the hard way as we bent our hood at the point where the...

Obviously a Longhorn SAS. They could use him at left tackle.

I don’t name inanimate objects. But if I did, the Bronco would be named Steve.

I had a bad experience with a Ford extended warranty in the later 1980’s and haven’t purchased one since. Long story short, new Tempo needed a valve job at 18,000 miles and service dept cobbled together some excuse why it was my fault and therefore warranty didn’t apply. Anyway I guess my butt...

Congrats on a beautiful rig. Last Sunday I was sitting outside a a coffee shop and a lady drove up and parked a Defender right by where I was sitting. She let me peak inside and it does seem to be a step up from a Bronco in terms of fit and finish. Of course, LR didn’t design the Defender to...

Probably catch crap for this one but…all the over-landing BS that I see hanging off every truck, jeep, SUV, station wagon here in Phoenix. The tents are the dumbest of all. For the few that actually use this stuff for its intended purpose, no problem, you folks rock. There are a few people in...

Nope, I’ll stick with the fully loaded WT I ordered. I just don’t think there’s anything all that special about an FE. If they had only made a few, say 500 or so, maybe they would be considered exclusive and collectable. For sure FE is a very cool Bronco, but to me it’s just one more trim...

I took that photo a couple weeks ago on the Gooseneck Trail in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve outside of Scottsdale, AZ. I see quite a few snakes (not just rattlers) while mountain biking in the public lands in and around Phoenix. In the last 20 years, this is the first one that adopted an...

You forgot these guys.

Within the scope of corporate missteps, this is probably no. 5672.

Taylor Sheridan’s 76 U15 in Sons of Anarchy. George Kennedy’s Bronco in the Eiger Sanction is the Bronco that started my life long affair with Broncos. Just go here: https://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=149240

Congrats on your change and hope it speeds up delivery. I’ll bet you’ll be happy you did that. Also, glad you stuck with the Bronco. When I saw the thread title, I thought you had defected to a different vehicle! Seems like quite a few of those threads lately.

65, 4-door Wildtrak. I REALLY like the looks and handling of 2 door. But I like to have the extra room for my camping and cycling adventures. Also, my wife and her friends like taking my vehicles (typically SUV or truck) on their expeditions to the Grand Canyon. They’re big into rim to rim...
