Love my 2020 Mustang GT Premium 5.0….well worth the money so far

Bronco? Fuck no, ugly AF and dumb

Let’s face it, Ford makes two vehicles worth buying……a Ford F- Series truck and the Ford Mustang GT, that’s it. If you buy any Ford besides those two you’re fucked

OP, Its clear you have no recollection how Toyota and Honda were regarded when they first got here in the 50s and 60s.

Kia and Hyundai make a good vehicle backed by an incredible warranty.

But dont let that distract you from your Bronco envy.

24k miles on my Bronco Sport with no issues or complaints, absolutely love it. I'm short so it's the perfect height for me to throw a kayak on top by myself. I think the 2dr Bronco looks great but for the size and cost, I'm happy with my Bronco Sport.

Except he's wrong, they did keep the old unibody FWD layout. They just changed styling cues to make it look slightly less like a bloated blob, apparently that was enough to confuse people into thinking they'd actually made a somewhat worthwhile product.

Broncos were originally sort of small. They grew them in size in the later years. My first car was a 71 Bronco. It was a bit more than most. It was made for a logging company but then it got rolled with 5,000 on the odo. My pops (auto body/mechanic) picked it up in 72 and it went back on the road in 74. Because it was meant to be in the woods, it had dual gas tanks and batteries, decent little small block 302 V8, lock-out hubs, swing out spare, three on the tree, rear seat and during the resto we added the ranger pack, winch, trailer hitch and off road lights. They were top heavy and more power then speed.

The new Bronco is one big disappointment!
They were supposed to build it on a shortened F-150 chassis, instead they cheapened out.
The smaller Sport model is nice but the Toy 4Runner has it beat.
I'm a big Ford fan, but they need to quit fucking up their proven designs.
PS-The Eco-Boost engine is an accident waiting to happen.

Ford sold twice as many Bronco Sports in 2021 then they did Mustangs. I wouldn't call it a mistake. It's actually a nice step up from the Escape it's based on and not too terrible offroad for what it is (not that most owners would really utilize that).

Maybe calling it something other than Bronco Sport, yes, as it seems to cause a lot of confusion. The person responsible for that was probably the same person that named their EV SUV the Mustang Mach-e.

Maybe call it the Ford Fjord?

I've been renting a '21 model from Avis for the past few days.  It's the bare bones model but I like it.  I drive 60-100 miles/day.  Been getting 28-29mpg.

It's a small jeep-size vehicle that looks cool.  Wouldn't mind it for a commuter car.  Miss my F150 though.

Really? 16.6? My RAM 2500 averages about the same and I live in the mountains. Heck, my 2008 Range Rover Sport with a V8 will average close to 16. 16.6 is pretty barbaric for a current small SUV, but then again, it's probably about the same as a Wrangler....

I like the full size. It's on my radar along with the Wrangler.

I find it amusing when people display their ignorance of the vehicle's history by apparently thinking it came out in '78, not '67.

I've been posting on the same board for 2 years and following Bronco since before it's release and outside of the bad batch of 2.7s and early MIC top problems the issues are pretty isolated cases.

My loaded Badlands went into production a couple days ago and should be shipping out in about a week.

Umm as of 2 weeks ago there were over 70 members out of just a few thousand total members that had blown 2.7 motors in new Broncos.

That’s a small % of actual owners on the road.

Only if you happen to have gotten one of 2.7's with defective valves.  They are breaking a valve stem and dropping valves which completely toasts the engine.

It appears to be limited to a certain production date range so far.

Quite unlike GM were every 5.3 and 6.2 engine will drop a valve and grenade...  this is why I drive a Toyota.



Oh yeah and stop taking about the re-badged Escape, this only pertains to the actual Bronco... this one...
