Is your Bronco your first Ford?

[USMCAg]

This is a completely random question just to mix things up a bit. How many of you are first time Ford owners due to your Bronco?

first new Ford, yes. It wasn't the make, it was the car that sold itself.

Second Ford, technically. About two years ago I bought a C-Max Energi, used, to replace an '07 Prius.

Nope I had a Ford Escort...no comparison, love my Bronco.

I used to drive a Honda Accord and always figured I’d stick with Japanese brands like Honda, Toyota, and Subaru for their reliability. But when the Ford Bronco leaked in 2020, it sparked an obsession I couldn’t shake. A few months ago, I would’ve taken my Honda to a mechanic just to fix a loose wheel well lining. But now? I’m installing a new bumper on the Bronco right in my own garage. It’s funny how passion can drive you to learn new skills, becoming more hands-on and self-sufficient in the process. Overlanding and off-roading aren’t just about the adventure; they’re about learning and mastering the skills to be prepared, capable, and self-reliant. I’m grateful this vehicle sparked that journey for me.

So TLDR first time Ford owner due to the Bronco. No regrets.

There are 4 Fox-body Mustang GTs and a 78 Mustang II in my past.

20th (I think) Ford (not including a few I bought and flipped) First new vehicle ever.

Second Ford, first one was a Mustang. I'm not brand loyal but Ford just happens to make cars that interest me the most (Mustang/Shelby, Bronco, F-150 Raptor)

No I'm a Ford guy, I have 2 F-150's, Excursion, hand full of Explorers to go along with it.

I lost count of how many Fords I've owned.

 

[adam1991]

Wait a minute--are we counting the six Model A that my wife's father has collected? Plus the Model T? Oh, wait--and then there were the MANY MANY Ford pickups as she was growing up...

The only ones that count are the ones you paid for. My first car was a 1975 Ford LTD in 1990 (pre-internet days for the guy that called me an Internet mechanic for changing my oil before 10,000 miles) and only 2 non-Fords since 1990 (I'm too lazy to push trucks these days). The Bronco was my 2nd new Ford, a 2005 GT Mustang being my first new car ever at age 30 (manual). So that's full disclosure. I have a 2016 F-150 (2.7) in addition to the '24 BB.

First time Ford owner here. Never even test drove a Ford before my Bronco. I love my Bronco and intend on staying with a Bronco for a very very long time. It’s my dream vehicle. My kids will be driving age in 5 years and will consider a baby Bronco for them. I’ve enjoyed the Ford experience thus far (2.5 years).
