I cancelled my 7/20 reservations today and purchased a 4Runner TRD Pro instead. I did stop at Ford dealer first and walk through my build. They wanted another $900 down to process the order and he was very clear that since I had Sasquatch package it wouldn’t be until “some time in 2022” that I...

Cool..I ultimately opted for the 4Runner. TRD Pro Lunar Rock is scheduled for 3/15 build and I should have it mid-April. After meeting with the Ford dealership and hearing all the uncertainty but a definitive “no Sasquatch until next year” I figured I’ll wait on a Bronco. If I love the...

Appreciate the insight and that is the intent. I have no desire to hit extremely difficult rock crawling but do intend to do fun mud and moderate trails.

Sorry, didn’t see your thread. At least I’m not the only one...

I wasn’t commenting on engine quality, just the additional mechanical components and electronics of the entire package. The “simple” Toyota has what would seem to be less that can go wrong.

I debated that option but I really want something to take out and about this year. Minivan is dated and if I buy outright I still have the option to change it later. Yes, I’ll lose a bit on trade but not too much considering both should hold their value well.

This is where I am leaning as I head out to dealerships now. I can always trade in the 4Runner in a year or two and know I have decent value in it. Either way I am buying outright. Kids range from 6yr old twins to 27yr old (and 2yr old grand daughter). 6 kids and 2 dogs. It’ll mostly be my...

Which way are you leaning? No roof rack on squatch and less towing are a question mark for me as well. After speaking with my wife last night she’s got me going the less reasonable/more fun Bronco route.

yes, this is part of the concern but with the 1st year Telluride I bought my wife, I had zero worries and it has been phenomenal.

I I’ve a dodge caravan which had been fine. So either are uprade

Thanks for the reply. Good points.

Not a pitch.. a Dad looking to finalize decision. My worry is the untested technology vs. the quality of the 4runner is all. No knock on either.

I did drive the 4Runner and it was great. Bear in mind, I"m driving a 2012 Grand Caravan while my wife has a 2020 Telluride. Night and Day. That said, we do a lot with 6 kids and 3 dogs so won't knock the minivan. But now it's time to go camping and fishing, and off road..

Thanks!

This is my issue in a nutshell. I'm paying cash either way. So, when Toyoto does a revamp of the 4Runner, or if Ford proves reliable, do win/lost when I purchase tomorrow? And yes, Ford delivery is an issue BUT I am driving a 2012 Dodge Caravan while I bought my wife a new telluride (excellent...

Tomorrow I finalize either my Bronco order or my 2021 Lunar Gray TRD Pro purchase (being built now w/delivery end of April). I've spent way too much time learning all the off-roading/overlanding lifestyle in the last year. To be quite honest, I am torn. A few thousand less for TRD PRO vs. my...

2021 Ford Bronco Badlands Rock Rails $595 ??? So, this one always interested me. Why would Rock Rails be an option on a Badlands when Ford website indicates they come standard on it? - If they are standard, take that $600 and put it toward the $1,800 for the 2.7 upgrade. That's the build I...

Thanks for that reply. With the added towing capability I may have to seriously consider the Ranger. Once I see specs on cabin space it'll help me figure that out. The 4Runner is now in the running too as a local dealer is willing to give me an incredible deal on a new TRD even with me paying...

I thought the same. The one letdown that is fairly common with many these days. The problem I have is that $50-60k should bring a bit more quality to this aspect. Again, challenges my decision considering my wife's Telluride was just $42k and is loaded with luxury. I realize, hardcore...
