Why all the hate on the OBX?

[Wanted33]

Ah interesting. That must look pretty good. ?

The finish looks better than that of the Bronco for sure. I installed the HotHead headliners which gives it a more finished look, and helps with the heat and sound. I'll do the same in the Bronco if Ford ever starts building them for us.

I’m not sexist but maybe some middle age men on the interior design team would have yielded a more ascetic interior.

No kidding! Let's face it...75% of buyers (if not more) fit that description.

I’m all about the roast cloth (pairing it with cactus). I had switched from OBX to Wiltrak to BL, but with GVWR issue from all the armor (that I don’t need, OBX is more than capable for the camping roads I do) and the boring interior of the BL, I am back to OBX. Probably will do Alea leather if dog hair becomes a pain. Kind of dig the painted fenders, they give it a more retro vibe then mic plastic. Waffling between Squatch and skinny aftermarket 33s, I don’t like the stock wheels at all.

Then again a white Wildtrak with all that black trim looks sharp, (if only the interior wasn’t so meh.)...

I would be driving in sand, limerock, and on trails in the woods which will have a combo of grass, limerock, and mud (sometimes very deep mud). I don't know of anywhere to "rock crawl" here.

I think this forum is full of Judging Judies who think they are on Twitter and need to denigrate people and force them into group-think to get them to comply with their personal choices. There is an unfortunate lack of self-reliance. As Emerson said, "foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds."

Don’t blame this one on the women. This is all pencil dick shit.

2-door OBX looks more like a gen 1 Bronco than any other trim. Fight me.

I would say BD with steelies is the closest to an early Bronco.

Can’t wait to see all you guys in your squatch Broncos loading groceries like the rest of us. OBX in my opinion is the closest looking to the original Bronco.

All 2 doors look more like the original but my picks are base and black diamond based on the steel wheels and grille.

I can see that but I meant more for the painted flares. Throw some steelies on an OBX and you’re basically John Bronco. Lol

Original Broncos had plastic running boards and painted fender flares?

It appears we’re both getting caught up on removable accessories...

That’s discriminatory against Italians and I will not stand for it! Lol

Ya that’s true.

And they'll hit every puddle on the way to get groceries. That is if they've even washed it since that time it got muddy.
