Mod top now MY2023, crazy.
Apparently the 4drs with soft top will now come with all the hard top plumbing/wiring. Only 4dr, not the 2dr. I wonder why.
My original plan was to wait until 2024 before buying a Bronco, that might get pushed to '25 or '26 now.
I was offroading at night once, didn't see a hole and went into it hard, it was quite the hit. Ended up breaking something inside my battery.
I was lucky enough to get it jump started the next morning. It only lasted long enough to get to the closest town and it died for good. Bought a new...
Luckily I don't have those where I camp. Although I have almost been bitten 4 times by Prairie Rattlers in Southern Alberta while walking around a Provincial Park.
From North Vancouver. I'll be ordering a Badlands, 2dr, 2.3L with manual transmission, Lux package (probably), mod top, tow package, non-sasquatch. Was thinking of Sasquatch, but instead I'll put that money towards a lift, 37s, new wheels and regearing.
Not getting it right away, maybe 2024...
I use a tent. The weather is too unpredictable where I usually go for sleeping without one. Waking up covered in due doesn't sound appealing either. Plus I'd get eaten alive by the mosquitoes, ants and ticks. And then there's the bears (Black & Grizzly), Cougars, Wolves and Coyotes.
44, girlfriend, no kids. 2dr is a lot better for the tight trails around me. I don't like having more than one passenger in my vehicles, so I'll be removing the rear seats for more cargo space.
The Jimny/Samurai has a tainted image in America because of a Consumer Reports review of it back in the 80's. Probably another reason it will never be for sale here again which is upsetting .
