  1. Major Mech failures . . what % ? - [March 7 update]

    I don't have that issue either. My GMC Sierra has a manual one.
  2. Major Mech failures . . what % ? - [March 7 update]

    I think you misunderstood my post. Consumers are equally at fault as in such a high demand has forced Ford to push these out at an unrealistic rate. This is almost brings back the image of what happened in mid 1989 when the Mazda Miata was introduced. The demand was so high and they were pushed...
  3. Major Mech failures . . what % ? - [March 7 update]

    OK I'm the new guy here. I'm choosing between a 4Runner, Rubicon JL, and Bronco when the time comes. I like the 4Runner, my wife likes the look of the 2 door Bronco. We all know that the Toyota is going to be the most reliable albeit not as capable out of the box. While I'm not a Ford fan, I...
  4. Order Preview = Actually Ordered?

    Right on and thank you Sir. Yes, my Wife inherited a cabin up in the mountains and I'm at the age where the motorcycling off road is a lot less. The last year we have been saving for a real 4wd body on frame with low range. So I'm checking out the 4Runner and Bronco forums to see what owners...
  5. Order Preview = Actually Ordered?

    That is fantastic!! Good on ya'!! I missed the boat. No big deal I'm patiently watching and waiting for the 4wd of my liking. That is very strange. This is the first I have heard this. My wife's father has special ordered a few vehicles over the years and had a VIN number and build date within...
  6. Order Preview = Actually Ordered?

    If a dealer is unable to give me a VIN or build date then I don't purchase the vehicle. All manufacturers are different but they all know their allocations at least once a month. So if I order a vehicle and cannot get my allocation from the dealer within 28 days I would cancel. It's important to...
  7. Brand new bronco overheated today [Updated 8/19]

    Because of the possibility of it overheating as well. Also the possibility of it being the cause of the event. Again all we can do is wait and see what the outcome is for this young lady. This is horrible how dealers across the country are treating their customers. The owner has every right to...
  8. Brand new bronco overheated today [Updated 8/19]

    Right now it is all speculation. The main thing is to not only fix the cause but fully diagnose and repair any damage that might have occurred during the overheat incident. Unless this is a very trusted dealership I would recommend going back and pulling both oil (engine, diffs, and TC) and...
  9. Brand new bronco overheated today [Updated 8/19]

    You hit the nail on the head!! It was just pure luck in regards to timing that I did a major expense to my truck just before the pandemic hit hard. Last year I did over $5,000.00 in major repairs, maintenance and upgrades to my 16 year old rig. The local shop did the clutch, pressure plate...
  10. Dealer not selling me my Bronco

    I think some positive can come out of this for all of us. The desperation and lengths some will go to make a profit on a hard to get vehicle should be a lesson to us all. It goes to show just by the comments how differently the members here think. We don't have to agree with each other. It's...
  11. Dealer not selling me my Bronco

    Because it is not morally correct or ethical. It is being done without honorable intentions. I do not know your background or your ethics. I will tell you about mine. I would not buy a Bronco pretending and using deception so I can turn around and make a profit. That is my way of thinking. If...
  12. Dealer not selling me my Bronco

    If life gets in the way then you get your deposit back, decline the bank loan and move on. I still stand by my opinion of the OP's unethical profiting at the expense of someone who actually wants the vehicle for their own use and enjoyment. The buyer has the power to purchase it for what they...
  13. Dealer not selling me my Bronco

    LMAO!!! My wife just now made a comment on this. She said this transaction the OP is doing sounds like insider trading!!!
  14. Dealer not selling me my Bronco

    This kind of thread kind of angers me. I have not read every page so forgive me if it's already been said. To the OP: The vehicle does not belong to you unless you signed a purchase agreement. The dealer has every right to refund your deposit and keep the vehicle. You had best read the...
  15. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    I forgot to mention that Toyotas are the same. I'm also a big fan of straight direct injected motors such as Subaru and others. I do have a prediction that a lot more manufacturers will be going straight injection in the near future. The fuel economy and power to be had with direct injection is...
  16. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    ?? Where is that coming from?
  17. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    All I have is my word and experience. It's not my style to "substantiate" what I have found to be true. It's no different than someone getting in a political argument. I have not seen anyone being questioned on what they document or experienced to be something positive about the Bronco. Can you...
  18. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    I can’t wait to see suspension companies, rock sliders, and skid plates!!
  19. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    The very most exciting thing is my Wife likes it!!
  20. I see why there is a lot of excitement over the Bronco

    BTW, I mentioned a few small issues in my original post about this rig. Why are some of the forum members jumping on the negative instead of praising the positive traits of this rig? Kind of sad that my intention of learning more exciting things about the Bronco has turned out into “ prove it”...
