What did your Bronco replace?

[HolidayDog]

For those of you using your Bronco as your daily what will it replace / or what did your Bronco replace?

For the last month I have been pretending our beloved 07 Toyota Sienna is actually a Bronco. The kids get a kick out of it or are getting tired of my commentary.

Honor your old daily! Let it live one last moment of glory on the B6G forum.

We had this for 3-4 years…took it to the OR/WA Coast 3 times, Moab, Durango, Wyoming, all over NW Montana/ North ID. Good times…but I probably won’t cry when it comes time to say goodbye!

Mine (kinda/not really) replaced a 2010 Dodge Journey that didnt have heat for like 8 years and gobbled oil like it was thirsty.

My crippling existential dread…

Just wait until your hardtop starts leaking

A wonderful Toyota 86 that I almost turned into a rally fighter. Still have the lift kit and offroad tires…

A 2001 Toyota Tundra with 303 k miles, a leaking power steering fluid case, worn out piston rings, 4.7 L V8 engine, torn up upholstery and peeling paint.

Both of these. Then got an HE sport added back to the mix.

Honestly I got rid of these.

Replaced my 2014 Charger. Kicker is I sold it to a Sgt. at work for his son, now his son just got hired & I see it in the lot every day. Like seeing an ex that you loved moved in next door

2022 Ram 1500 was sold to early while it had more value and to save on monthly payments while I started the ordering process for my 24 Bronco. Been driving a very low mileage 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport we bought to teach my son how to drive. That will be his car once he gets his license.

Just kidding..

2021 RAV4. Decently built car, but very boring.

 

[Jesterswife]

2011 Mini Cooper ConvS. Loved that car, but love the Bronco for different reasons. Still refuse to give up my stick until I go all electric one day in the far future. Glad I could have a Bronco with a stick.

We had a van and my Bronco purchase story makes me laugh to this day…

In April of 2022 my kids were 6 and 8. We had a Honda Odyssey for 5 years and it was the main vehicle either of them had ever really known.

After nearly a year of talking about Broncos and convincing my wife I earned a fun car after years of driving a minivan I found our Bronco on the lot!

I brought the entire family for a test drive and decided to buy it. Problem was the kids were devastated that we were getting rid of our van. They didn’t realize buying the Bronco meant getting rid of the van. After all the paper work was done and we were cleaning out the van my daughter buckled herself in it and refused to get out while balling her eyes out. My son quietly got in the Bronco and on the way home I saw tears running down his face. He said, “Dad, I’m really going to miss the van.”

Needless to say change is hard but NO ONE wishes we still had the van now. We’ve made many more memories in our Bronco

2006 Buick LaCrosse

My grandmother custom ordered it brand new when she was 88 years old, paid for it in cash which none of us had any clue she had.
She died at 99 in 2017 and left everything to my mother, and my parents already had a reliable car, so when my Pathfinder literally crapped out on the side of the road in 2019 my mom just gave me the Buick... with a whopping 33k miles on it.
It was the ultimate old lady car... silver, gray cloth interior (she custom ordered it with a bench seat and a column shifter, and the seats were that velour type material, which I had no idea you could still even get.)
It made it 3 years of my daily driving, the problem up to that point was that it hadn't been driven enough, it suffered from all the problems of cars that just sit.
I was bummed to get rid of it, just because of the odd sentimentality of it, and I thought about keeping it as my winter beater, but it just needed too much nickle and dime work to be worth it.
