I need help with this yall ! So torn.

Kept all mine, though the 06 GT convertible now sits outside the car hole. The Bronco took its space.

Love the "Stangs. Hate those stupid front plates.

If there’s any way, keep the Mustang. I love my Bronco, it makes me happy just to see it, but I love my 2015 Mustang when I want to take the twists and my old 3 series just won’t get it. Good luck man!!

IMO, if you are making payments, that means you can't actually afford it. You are showing that you ordered a Wildtrack in your .sig. Is there a good reason you are ordering a $58K Wildtrack instead of a more reasonably priced $42K Black Diamond? (or a $35k Base)?

That's a lot of money to be throwing at a depreciating asset.

How much high speed desert running are you going to do in Sac-town?

I appreciate the feedback. Better to have money in the bank rather than purchasing outright. But I plan on putting more money down and pay off in 48 months.
I also like the Wildtrak ever since I saw one on the lot. Also who’s just buying a bronco to do desert running, 99% percent of the time it’s a daily driver. You only live once.

I was in a similar position when I got my build date. I’ve always been a car guy and the bronco was going to be my first “truck”. I had two cars in my garage, a g37 sedan and a g35 coupe. I didn’t have room for 3 vehicles so I sold the sedan and used the money from the sale for my down payment and kept the coupe. The bronco is not a race car nor is it as quick on corners like my other cars but it’s still incredibly fun to drive and with the 2.7 it’s pretty good on power for what it is. The mustang im sure is a ton of fun to drive and own, but if it’s one or the other I’d almost pick the bronco. Since owning the bronco, I’ve done so much more off-roading, camping, exploring and taking off the roof and doors, all of these things I could never do in my g35/37. I never tracked my car on a racetrack, but I’ve definitely hit off road trails in my bronco.

do what your heart (and wallet!) are leaning towards. You will love your bronco!

Awesome feedback so far guys!! Thank you for your thoughts..I am leaning toward selling the mustang I've had a lot of fun with it and pre ordered in Dec of 13 for a 15 mustang..I know I'll never have another one like it but I think it's the best route ..I will revisit this post in some time and report back if I made a mistake.. can't wait for my BRONCO.

Years later I wish I'd never sold my MKII MR2, five speed, sport top, you can't find an unmolested one for less than 4 or 5 times what I sold it for; so if you can, keep it.

Future cars just won't be as special. No one will ever build an affordable mid-engine car again. But back then there was at least three including the Fiero and the X-9, one more if you count Lotus.

I'm selling the 911 now that I have the Bronco - I never get to drive it anymore. I'm keeping the 2021 Mercedes GLE63s AMG and the Harley.

I agree with most replies, saying that you should keep both if you are able to handle it financially.
Personally, I kept my '14 Mustang GT because I love driving it. I don't NEED it, but I WANT it. I do need a truck or SUV to tow trailers and haul dirt bikes I've had two vehicles for quite a while now (one sporty, one utilitarian).

My advice would be this... when you get the new Bronco, you are going to want to drive it a lot since it is new. During this time, the Mustang will be mostly parked and not getting much use. Wait for the "newness" of the Bronco to pass, and see if you miss driving the Mustang. This is what I experienced. Now, I find that I drive the Mustang more often than when the Bronco was new. You can always decide to sell your Mustang later.

Another thought... This summer, I plan to have the roof and doors off of my Bronco on a regular basis. Last summer, I would go back and forth between installing and removing the hard top, using the hoist system I installed in my garage. But this year, I plan to just leave the top off, and when it rains I can just drive the Mustang without having to reinstall the hard top as often.

Good advice

That orange is sick. I want that color on Bronco.

So , my wildtrak will be delivered in the next week or so and my 2015 mustang which I originally was going to keep must be sold so I can be in a better position with the bronco..
I don't HAVE TO sell the mustang but it would greatly help me with a lil tigher financial situation currently. Basically I'd be losing one horse but gaining another ..my question is, am I stupid for getting rid of this car? Or is the bronco that much fun that I won't mind ? Or buck up and tighten the belt? I know this is very opinion based but I just wanted some light hearted feedback to soften the loss of my baby..here she is..

One of my conditions for ordering my Bronco was that I couldn't do it unless I got to keep my Mustang. I managed to make it work, and I'll be welcoming the Bronco this summer, while keeping my 2016 Mustang GT. There will *always* be a Mustang in my garage. It's non-negotiable.

You should have as many cars as you have garage bays.

I have six bays, five Fords and a tractor.

Back in the day Four Wheeler magazine called the Bronco the "Mountain Mustang" ... and this was with 165 hp and three on the tree.

I have a 2005 stang which is fun, but since I got the Bronco I seldom drive it, the Bronco is better in most every way, and fun to boot. I'm considering selling the Mustang but can't quite pull the trigger.

 

[jbacon47]

Totally different rides. If you're not going on long road-trips, off-roading, camping, towing, or winter driving... keep the mustang.

Interesting choice on the GLE63. Most have gone with either the Cayenne Coupe Turbo S or the RS Q8. Once in a while an X6.

Agree 100%. That's the orange I wanted the Cyber Orange to be...

Sold my 2015 GT for my 2023 Wildtrack. I had been in Mustangs for 12 years (the 2015 was my 3rd one consecutively.)

The 2015 was giving me problems so it was time to move on anyways, and I just needed a change, but the only things I miss are the V8 rumble and driving a manual, everything else is pretty great in the Bronco.

I tell everyone who asks me, if the Bronco had a V8 I would probably never consider a Mustang again.

The Bronco wont handle the same as your GT, and it's not as fast, but you will be surprised by the initial torque / seat of pants feeling when stepping on it (assuming your GT was still NA).

You will love not having to worry about curbs, wheel damage, the extra space, sitting up high, the off-road capabilities, the large touch screen, and just the fact that it is very, very different from the Mustang. Pretty much all the things I really appreciate coming from a Stang to a bronco.

Our other car is a Tesla Model Y. It's faster than both obviously, and has some other benefits, but its a very uninspired driving experience for a car lover. The Bronco is a nice gap between the Mustang and Model Y.

Ideally, I would like to get into a V8 Mustang again, maybe while keeping the Bronco. I'll give it a year or two and then make that decision. For now, I'm having a lot of fun in the Bronco!

Good luck with your decision!
