After reading the comments, I guess she could have thought I was a wackjob. I Get it.

I had no idea it was a woman driving when I pulled up. It could have been a racoon and I would have done the same.

All others I've passed, the driver seemed as excited to see me.

I'll leave people alone.
I would keep doing the same. If they don't respond positively or at all, then oh well their loss not yours. Life's too short to worry about people like that. Wave, thumbs up, strike up a conversation if the opportunity arises. If a person can't handle a friendly gesture then that's on them!

I’m in the opposite end of this I’m a little disappointed more people haven’t said something about it at gas stations, in parking lots lol. I’ve gotten a good share of do you like it and it’s nice but not any people I would call enthusiasts. I was the third Bronco in our little town. I did see a Cactus grey base 2Dr roll by the other day. For some unkow reason I was excited like hell yeah haven’t seen that one in town yet 🤣🤣
We also used to camp a lot and in general I like taking to people I guess. My wife would call and ask where the heck are you? I’d be like two rows over talking to this guy about his superduty or fishing or whatever lol.

Saw an Eruption Green Bronco, so I caught up at a stop light. Rolled down my window, yelled "Nice!" Woman, 40s? Mouthed to me, "Pssh whatever" Drove away.

Not being a creeper, there aren't many of these. WTF is that? I'm just stoked when I see another one. Assumed mall crawler over MSRP.
I meant more not being enthusiastic about having a Bronco vs. being a hard core Bronco fan. Poor wording.

Either way, it's been established that I'm a dumbass. I definitely will not roll down my window going forward. A simple wave will suffice. I just get very excited to finally see others. Some people don't want to be bothered.
No one is saying you shouldn’t be nice. I think everyone will agree that maybe it should be more thought out.

Next time you see a Bronco, pull up and scream the following…
ā€œTAKE YOUR TOP OFF!!!ā€

Also, make sure you’ve got your camera on and pointed in the appropriate direction.

My interest was in a 28k base manual 2-door Bronco. Figured with adding 33"s, it could have been a fun new off-road vehicle for top-down adventures.

But the situation has attracted a big spending crowd. I still like the Bronco vehicle, but the overall scene around it, has become kind of a turn-off.

Only local owner I know, is some rich guy with two Broncos, who doesn't even off-road. I wouldn't care much, except with a limited supply, those kind of customers will have a leg up.
If ever I have seen/heard/read the epitome of the "sour grapes theory", this is it.
You let them win, the only one who loses out is you.

Just because the good folks at the local Corvette/Mustang/BMW Club are pretentious assholes doesn't make me not want one.

There are cool people that own them also, that's who I hope to meet.

Honestly, if the other Bronco owners are turning their nose up at me, it truely is their loss. The folks I have met out on the trail or around the campfire with my 69 Bronco are among the funnest, coolest people I've had the pleasure of meeting.
