You're going to argue with a stat that I said was applicable only to vehicles I've personally seen?

You're welcome for the 3%.

I drove a rental over the holidays and I was impressed. Nice ride and a peppy engine. My first new vehicle after my LSU graduation was a Bronco II so maybe it was nostalgia.

The engine line up is a joke.

A Bronco is supposed to have a V8.

I wouldn’t trade my 92 Eddie Bauer for the most tricked out new one they have .

Why would you want to buy a vehicle that is going to have 3 recalls and fall apart on you in the first place?

This has been true for years.

90% of the Wranglers in BR are driven by women.

It’s science

But now I’m disappointed.

I think they look pretty good, but are a little undersized and I’m not crazy about the engine lineup or the price.

However, the biggest turnoff is that they are clearly a lady vehicle. Nearly everyone I’ve seen has been driven by chicks.

I was hoping for this:


this is a very lazy take.

Rav4 competitor. Just like the blazer redo. What are these companies thinking with formerly proud badge names.

The 2 door looks great but they are simply pieces of shite which isn’t surprising. The interior is a cheap plastic joke that would make 1990’s GM and Ford designers smile.

I wanted one. Then they released the tow rating. Then covid hit and they got marked up like $30k.

Should have bought one just to flip.

It’s because of you want the off road looking ones, you have to get the top two models

If not, it looks like a shitey SUV that a mom drives

not a problem. the real broncos look good. your expectation was more of the problem than anything. girls are driving lots of jacked up jeepish type vehicles these days, not just a bronco thing. the bronco motor issue is the bigger concern i have at the moment, otherwise, aside from being overpriced, i like them.

They put the 2.7L Ecoboost in some of the models which has decent output for the weight. But they apparently built them with suboptimal parts and several engines have cratered after a couple thousand miles.

Quality is no longer Job One.

Eco Boost is a throwaway hunk of shite.

No one who drives one likes to admit it, but if you're driving an SUV you're in a station wagon.
