Definitely getting more bites here than 7g

End of the day, he makes the call, just providing him some feedback is all.

I use to have 3 mustangs but sold one to get a bronco. Now I have the best of both. Sure a bronco is way more functional.

I've had 2 mustangs in the past, the last one with FRPP suspension. I now enjoy bouncing around in my 2dr OBX and smile every time I ignore a speed bump or steep driveway entrance.
Plus sitting up high I can now actually see the traffic around me instead of guessing 🙃
I don't know about the new ones, but the 96 GT my parents had were the worst blind spots I've ever seen in a car.

I posted, many moons ago on here, about how I spent so much time driving my Fox body it was as if it was a part of me. So easy to row through the gears. Comfortable to drive, arm resting on the open window, one finger on the wheel, other hand resting on the shifter, waiting for the next GM victim to come cruising by.

When the insiders would come here to post these were my first questions. How comfy to cruise in. How ergonomic is the Bronc?? If it’s like my wife’s Exploder, it wont be pretty. Don’t get me wrong Exploder drives ok just not fun to drive.

So this doesn’t turn into a book…….. flash forward a bit to when Ford offered a “ride and drive” at the local off road park, before they were building them, only took about 10 minutes and I was in love, it brought a tear to my eye.

Now that I have my Bronc I go for rides, just to go for a ride. I can say my 2.7 Bronc is like a 4WD Stang. It rips when you want it too and will cruise for hours and not bat an eye. Sooooo comfy.

Truly an awesome ride!!!! Badass and purpose built!!!!

@Administrator , can we get a salute reaction? I wanted to salute his comment, as while the love reaction is good, just feel salute would be more than enough

Doug won’t do it 😆😆😆😆 the puke emoji was great but didn’t last because people just get to butt hurt over it when they would get it.

I never would use the love emoji because I didn’t want to seem sappy but anymore, if I like a post I give it the love. Call me a sap I don’t care. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Shame, such a shame. Some people also ruin all the fun, getting butthurt over reactions xD

Certain places for love, but this ain't one of them. This is definitely making work fly by for sure

Pretty much in line with everyone else.

I miss the heated/cooled seats.

Race Red GT convertible got me more... um... interested looks than the Bronco has so far.

I enjoy being able to see the traffic around me in the Bronco, especially, considering it's Miami traffic. You really have to drive at bizarre times to get enough room to--SAFELY--outrun the 2.3L with FP tune let alone the 2.7 tuned or a Mustang GT.

IF i were forced into this modern dating hell-scape, I would get another RR GT 'Vert.

There only a few Mustangs built for Off-Road so if you got that Thomas Crown vibe and money then maybe.....

Ford Bronco From 'Stang to Bronco? th-4032547830


But GMG has also tried it with a S650 so anything is possible.

First night I met my wife she wanted a ride in the Stang. Everyone standing around said “You might want to rethink that, do you know how he drives??”

About 3 blocks into it and an IROC pulled up beside me. The light turned green and within 2 blocks he was dusted. Only issue was the next light was red. Skidded the Stang to a stop, looked over at her and she had the death grip on the door handle and a scared look on her face. 😆😆😆

I said “Don’t worry, you’re safe.” 😉

Must not have bothered her too much we just celebrated our 25th anniversary. And we dated/lived together for 10 years before that.

Is he getting a 2 door or 4 door Bronco?
We'll see. I think whatever he finds that fits will work, just he's particular about getting a '24, feels the 23s lost value

He might be right, but I see it as he's got solid options around
