In the end it doesn't matter. I have a 911 that I doubt I will ever track, but I have a ton of fun driving it on back roads. The Bronco is different though. I am buying one 100% for it's off road capability. I ride motorcycles off road and enjoy just blasting through potholes. I have a Subaru...
One other potential problem with the Bronco is the mounting of the spare tire. Same with a Jeep Wrangler. For a lot of bicycle/motorcycle hitch racks you will need a hitch extension to clear the spare tire. That extension increases the leverage on the hitch assembly and decreases the max tongue...
My dealer asked me to send me a copy of my current build and price, but said actual ordering was in December and I could still change my build at time of ordering.
Can't say for sure as the two Broncos I saw were both 4 doors. According to the specs the 2 door is a little bit shorter than my Subaru Crosstrek so that is pretty good for me. Specs show the 2 door Jeep length at 166.8 and the Bronco at 173.7 so 6.9 inches longer for the Bronco.
I'm not sure I would even consider a First Edition. One in mint condition might have some value decades down the road. I don't see any Bronco as unique. I keep reminding myself that I am buying a Bronco Badlands for the off road capability and general durability. It's going to get dirty and...
I am going with the Sasquatch package on a 2dr Badlands. I finally decided on 35s for the ground clearance. Anything else would be too big for my taste. It's always a tradeoff between off road capability and on road practicality. Getting the Sas package works for me because it is all...
For me it is not that bad but only just. Our Lexus RX450h has a 1500 lb towing capacity and our Subaru Crosstrek is 2500 lbs. So the 3500 of the Bronco is nice. Also important is the tongue weight rating of 350lbs, which is exactly what my motorcycle hitch carrier+motorcycle weighs. If the...
Oh I totally agree that electric vehicles are great if the infrastructure is there, and for most driving on paved roads in many countries including the USA it works great. After the Bronco our next car will be electric. I am actually pretty excited about that. I guess my point was that...
It has been interesting watching the series Long Way Up on Apple TV+. Charley Boorman and Ewan McGregor are riding Harley Livewire electric bikes from Ushuaia in Patagonia to Los Angeles. There are also two Rivian electric support trucks. Especially early in the trip when it was cold the range...
