Illinois Bronco Event Today

[Five-O Donut Hole]

Was lucky enough to go and see a couple Broncos today. A Cactus Grey 1st Edition and an Area 51 Badlands, LUX on 33’s. Both had soft tops.

First impression of the Sasquatch stance is outstanding and it makes the Bronco look big and tough. I liked the look of the Badlands but to me, the Sasquatch sets them apart.

I have read a lot of posts where others are concerned about the leg/seating room so I focused on this aspect using the 1st Edition. I have a loaded Wildtrak on order so the 1st Edition most closely resembles my build.

I’m 6’0 180 and drive a Raptor as my daily vehicle. I’ve only had full size trucks for the last 20 years so I’m used to having plenty of room. If anyone is looking for the same type of room from a Bronco, or even close to, you will be disappointed. For my frame, I was able to get very comfortable in both driver and passenger seats with excellent leg/hip/shoulder room. I left the front seats in those positions and sat in the backseat with adequate leg room. Hip/shoulder room in the back was no issue but adding a 3rd person to the middle would tighten things up. I was comfortable but couldn’t see someone bigger than me sitting back there for an extended trip. The rear seats do incline about an inch and a half and surprisingly it helps in the comfort department.

The overall look of the Bronco is awesome in my opinion. Seeing them in person is nothing like looking at a photo.



I’ll try adding some photos but I can be technologically deficient when it comes to this stuff at times.

I was there today at noon! Great pics! The Broncos were inside in the building's atrium, so my pics didn't turn out great. The Broncos were nice, but I was hoping for VB 4dr Big Bend! One take-away from the visit, that ordering tube-steps was smart on my part! Both Broncos sit high off the ground! As far as event reservations, they didn't seem too focused on who was walking in to view the Broncos. I actually stayed past my allotted time, too. I spoke to several peeps at the event, who were not aware of Granger's below MSRP offer, and one of the peeps was working the event!

I was disappointed with no two doors and no MIC tops. Found the head room to be short for me, my F150 was much better in this measurement.
I will keep my order the wife might like it but I will be hard pressed to give up my F150
