...for jeep drivers.

Since picking up my Bronco - I've noticed some jeep drivers spinning their heads so quickly to get an eyeful of the Bronco that they have to be getting whiplash.

Any one else notice the same? Does it ever get old?

I like waving at them and seeing their confused look.

Haha! I was returning from a trip to Palm Springs in my Bronco with the front panels off. I stopped at a light in French Valley and a guy in a black Jeep stared hard at the truck while trying to make a right turn. Had to swerve back in his lane. Next to the time a couple in front of me BOTH staring while attempting a left turn, the funniest thing I've seen.

the funniest thing ive had happen was at a gas station. girl in her rubicon behind me sunk in her seat and was snapping pics of the bronco. literally you could only see the phone peaking above the steering wheel.

OK that's some funny shit. Admiration and shame at the same time.

I canā€™t believe the attention this thing gets. Iā€™ve owned mine since Friday night and Iā€™ve had at least three guys a day start conversations with me at traffic lights. A DSL installer in the neighborhood came up my driveway asking if he could see it, and ended up spending an hour of his workday chatting about Broncos and off-roading. Iā€™ve seen three other Broncos and all three gave a wave/thumbs up. Went to a charity event and the guys who saw me drive up chatted me up for hoursā€¦they all had more expensive vehicles than a Bronco. And the people you catch turning headsā€¦.especially Wranglers, FJā€™s, and Defendersā€¦is endless.

I picked mine up from a day of getting Xpel wrapped this afternoon and when I drove up they had a cameraman taking pics of it next to another Bronco, posed in front of their shop, then asked if they could use the pics on their website. Said theyā€™ve wrapped about 40 Broncos but never had two in at once. Itā€™s fun having guys in top end Teslas and Mercedes that cost $100k+ just want to talk Bronco.

Maybe 6 months ago, but there are so many Broncos on the streets around here, I see more real Broncos than sports. It's hard to go to town and not see 2-3 each day. It's not as bad as Jeeps, but the dang things are everywhere.

Did not get much attention throughout the winter but now that I finally got to put the top down people are looking including, getting a wave from 3 jeep owners.
When I had a cyber orange sport I was asked about it all the time and kept having to tell them it was not the full size Bronco.

Im already seeing a lot of Broncos on the road. Once Ford actually builds and ships what they should be, Bronco will have rental car status and the whiplash will go away.

Tried to kindly wave at a Jeep driver , he didn't wave back, he didn't seem thrilled.
Not cool enough for the cool kids I guess šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø
