When the toyos getting in?

First of next week. They gave me 75% new value for the takeoffs. I thought it was a good deal.

Friendly reminder that my album, Whenever You Need Somebody, went Platinum in 1988 and not a single song from it is on your supposed "play list".

Perhaps you remember this smash hit? It should be on your play list.

Well, if for no other reason, I now know what the first few songs I play in my Bronco will be. LOL
I never really had a tune in mind, maybe some Bob Seger or John Mellencamp.
But I feel like I have a purpose now, I must jam out some Rick Astley on my first drive.

One can only hope the Bronco will be as entertaining to drive as @Rick Astley 's posts are to read.

**UPDATE TO THE UPDATE** a few overall observations and some nitpicky things:

Overall: Driving this thing is friggin awesome!! To all of you who hate on "mall crawlers" I say, "Who cares?" I will take it offroad, but if I never did, it's worth every penny driving around town with the top down and the music up.

The Sync 4 system is amazing. I use Android auto and it is seamless with Spotify and maps.

Nitpicking: I wish they had come up with some way to tether the rear seat belts while driving topless with no rear passengers. They flop like crazy, especially the middle one.

The rear tailgate strut is annoying. Stops at like 1/4 open and you have to push way too hard to get it completely open. Weird.

Thr aerodynamics make it a bug magnet. I figured as much, but dude, already?

"I made two calls with the top down going 45-55 MPH. My wife could understand me and I could understand her. That's a good sign."

So...you're telling us you're the first married couple that actually understands each other...

Thanks for the review and enjoy the new ride!

Congrats! Would love to see some thoughts around the soft-top once you've driven it for a bit. Curious to hear about noise cancellation quality, visibility, etc.

The soft top is generally quiet in that I can talk and listen to music at normal volumes. But there is some wind noise. There is a whistle in the front with the top up and down, so I assume that's the aerodynamics of the windshield and not the top. There is some wind noise from the back, but it isn't extreme. This is my first convertible, so I don't have a proper baseline for comparison.

First time with the doors off. When you don't have bags and your FordPass points haven't come in, you do this:

But you get this:
