Does your significant other drive your Bronco?

[Moto26]

Technically, it's her Bronco, since we were replacing her old Explorer, and I have my truck. However, she would have been happy with another Explorer, and I talked her into a Bronco instead.

So it's "her" Bronco that we got for "me".

If we could afford three vehicles, I would have a 2-door BaseManSquatch, as well as our truck, and then whatever car she wanted to drive. But two is it, and we need the truck, so the Bronco has to pull family duty...

She drives the truck often, hauling horses to shows, so I get the Bronco a fair bit. Fortunately, she's a very good driver (including stick), so I don't worry about her. I don't think she's ever damaged one of my vehicles...

My wife is driving the Bronco more and more. She loves it! It's definitely different from her X3 and she likes the way it looks. She's using it to take our daughter horseback riding and picker her up from school, plus running errands. She's getting more and more used to it.

I have zero issues with her driving it. She likes to drive different cars.
Although, she's a bit nervous driving my 911, just due to the cost and she doesn't want anything to happen to it, even by accident. Cars are meant to be driven and enjoyed, but if she's not enjoying herself, then it's not worth it.

Can't wait to get the roof off so she can let her hair fly!

My wife has driven the Bronco maybe 4 times in the first 2700 miles. She is fine driving it and likes it, but is apprehensive about putting a scratch on it because she knows I’ll lose my shit on the first one. Her Tacoma lease is up in a year, the tentative plan is for her to take over the Bronco as a daily driver rather than getting her another vehicle. She drives 5 miles each way to work and the Bronco is a third vehicle for us since my employer provides a truck. I can’t see the point of leaving the Bronco in the garage getting 2500 miles per year and paying for another vehicle for her to put 7000 miles on annually.

Wife liked it so much she got her own.
She likes a vehicle that sits up higher, has 4WD and isn’t too big. The Bronco fit the bill.
She hasn’t had any problems with her ‘22.

Just curious how many folks share their Bronco with their spouse/significant other? And if so, how often do they drive it?

Assuming you ordered the Bronco because you wanted it, what was their feedback when they started to drive it?

My wife steals my bronco everyday! We now have rule that she needs to have it back by 4pm so I can use it after work.She’s a foot shorter than me so I do wish the Bronco had memory settings for the seat and mirrors. But those are first world problems I guess.

Shortly after receiving MY new Bronco, my wife's car got totaled, I now get to drive it from time to time.

Once, drove my '77 once as well.

She drives it every day as a daily driver. When we go out I have fun with the stick shift and sport mode.

Another vote for she has her own Bronco.

Actually her loaded OBX Wife-Squatch to replace her current BL just got scheduled. Wanted to get her leather and one in black so she can custom wrap it.

I've offered to let her drive it multiple times but she refuses, so 0% so far.

Mine bitched about my ‘75 Bronco and bitches about this one. She hasn’t driven it yet and I’m 4800 miles in. She’s ridden in it maybe a handful of times and complains about climbing in even though I have Zroadz slider/boards and an extra Bartact strap. She’s spoiled by her X7 and it’s quiet air suspension ride.

I originally ordered for her then stole her reservation and got her her own. Only way I could have things our way......

 

[JerryC]

She would drive it much more than I would if she could drive a stick. This is the only cool vehicle I have bought that she didn't immediately take from me.
She thinks I bought it for just that reason.

Now that I have mine she wants a Bronco sport.

It's been a blessing/curse that my wife has been driving a stick since she was 14. She likes HP and comfort, something my Tacoma and Bronco don't offer to her level of satisfaction. The stick she can drive as well as anyone.
