As much as I want to go pick up my Bronco today, I'm fine with the wait for BaseManSquatch. I'm still working on repairing my credit after some bad decisions from around 15 years ago. I have a June 18th reservation, but I actually think having to wait until late '22 may help me save up and pay...

This is certainly true, and the way things have consistently gone for me with N/A v6 vs. N/A v8, and with my 2.5 litre jeep vs. all the 4.0 litre jeeps I've had. My '97 4 banger Wrangler was lucky to get 15 mpg with 4.10 gears and 32's, while my 4.0 Cherokee with 4.10's and 33's gets around 22...

I'd take an NA 2.0 if it was the only option to get a manual transmisssion. If the 2.3 can't maintain 75 mph on the highway, I don't want a Bronco anyway. It was fine in the Ranger I test drove, way faster than the 2.7 in my Tacoma. Other than needing to keep up with traffic in town and cruise...

My 4 year old is very excited, and asks me every time we leave the house if we're on our way to pick up the Bronco. Unfortunately, he'll be 6 or 7 by the time we can pick up a ManSquatch, and will probably lose interest. My wife is tired of hearing about it, and dreading the monthly payment...

My base won't have all that wacky crap going on... just big tires, lockers, and 3 pedals. Like God intended lol...

Welp, these photos just changed my mind from White to Carb Grey. That just looks good.

If I can't have BMS, I'll keep driving my old junk and save $35k. Maybe they'll offer it later, and maybe I'll be able to afford it then

Are you saying I'll be less fatigued than taking road trips in my 30 year old jeep? Or that the 2door is going to be a horrible ride and I'll be worn out from driving it? This ain't my first rodeo. I've done cross country trips in a CJ-5 on 33's. That part is gonna be FIIIIIIINE. Maybe not for...

B&P still isn't showing BaseManSquatch. But If I can order it, I'm ready to put my money down and drive it home ASAP. The longer it takes, the more I can pay up front. I"m basically putting back my monthly payment each month on top of the down payment I already had saved. By the time it...

Looking like the 2 door will be the perfect size for me, my wife, little boy, and the dog. I might build a bumper buddy for longer trips where we need more stuff, but most of the time, that'll do nicely. Most cross country trips will have a small trailer with dirtbikes on it, so a rubbermaid...

I've driven a 1973 Jeep CJ5 from Tennessee to Colorado and back, and from TN to Miami. I daily drove that old jeep on 33's for 5 or 6 years, and it was fine, even at 70mph on the interstate. My 4 cylinder TJ on 33's wouldn't do 70, but it still wasn't too bad driving to Colorado. I've driven an...

Painted flares on this yellow one look terrible. This thing reminds me too much of the Special Kids bus, at least in this color. Hard pass. Cyber Orange should have been darker and more obviously orange.

I'll have good insurance on mine. Anybody who can drive stick is fine, but I imagine only my wife and a couple of good friends will ever even ask.

I'll take mine to visit family in Colorado, and camp out there for a couple of weeks. I also plan to try to take my wife and son to as many national parks and forests as I can. I may very well take the Bronco over Imogene and Black Bear, as well as the rest of the Alpine Loop around Silverton...

Lol they didn't ask for my opinion. Base model peasant here....

This, but Mike Levine

If I could get lockers a la carte, I'd add them to a base with steelies and just slap some skinny 33's on and call it good. Unfortunately, they decided to screw the DIY crowd by welding the ring gears to the diff carriers, so I won't really save much adding lockers later. Squatch it is. I may...

I'd say that is correct and that the extended warranties are 3rd party or maybe constrained to that particular dealer, however I don't mind that. I would have been tempted to purchase a 3rd part extended warranty anyway, so it may save me a couple grand. I'm a mechanic myself, but I HATE to work...

I called around as well, and also got good offers from Hunt Ford in Franklin, KY, as well as Cookeville Ford. Cookeville is also offering a lifetime powertrain warranty with purchase, which is appealing to me as I plan to hang onto this ride pretty much forever. I will call Two Rivers as well...

I'll be daily driving mine on days I don't ride my motorcycle. Local hardcore offroading will be reserved for my Jeep, but cross-country trips will be done in the Bronco, and its purpose will be to get me there, no matter what, and no matter where "there" happens to be. Yes, this will include...
