OP never mentioned off roading so it appears that this’d be a daily driver
It’s a Bronco. Most of those girls who have them never take them off road.

I think the heritage versions are difficult to get. At least that’s what my buddy told me, he just received his 2 door heritage that was ordered years ago.

Think the Bronco performed terrible in a crash test.
False.
I have a 2021 badlands with the V6. 28k miles or so. My only complaint is a V8 wasn’t offered, but the V6 is stout.
There were a couple of engineering flaws. The hard tops would make a popping noise but that was an easy fix. There was also a tapping / ticking noise coming the tailgate but it was an easy fix too.

If you only keep it for 5 years it may be a great vehicle. Years 5 to 10 and you'll have some surprisingly expensive repair bills. After a decade, it will cost as much too keep it on the road as a new vehicle note.
Gone are the days of trucks lasting 15 years without major problems.

It’s replaced the Subaru as the official car of lesbians.

I looked at a 2 door Badlands with the black steelies and a manual transmission. 4 doors are for soccer moms.

If Yoyota made it, I’d buy it in year 3-5

It's a low bar when you brag about a vehicle with only 50k on it having no issues. I wouldn't brag about "no issues" until it topped 6 digits.
The shite the OT can find to talk shite to each other over never ceases to amaze me

I'm OT poor, but my 2 door Bronco Badlands with a manual is fun to drive, though still waiting for the reservoirs on the shocks to fall off.
But this is the OT, you need a Super Bronco with a 7.3L V8.

Death wobble........you people I swear!
What? The Bronco has an independent front suspension so it won’t have death wobble. Death wobble is an issue with solid front axle vehicles. Lifted Jeeps are the worst with death wobble due to their geometry, but any solid front axle vehicle can get it ..

I have this same bronco, the Green Everglades. Actually pretty smooth ride on hwy. However, it is loud inside due to windows don't really seal while driving fast on hwy. Great room inside. Gets me where I want to go in the Arkansas outback. People love the green. Wench on front is excellent.

To many doors. Lose the automatic.
Did you miss the part in the OP where I mentioned wanting a manual transmission?
Posted on 11/13/24 at 7:36 am to Darth_Vader
I have one... I enjoy it. I blacked mine out and try to spend most days with the doors and the roof off.
All that matters is that you are happy with the purchase.

Looks good, but don't they have a lot of issues?
That’s what I’m not sure about. So I came to the best place to get answers to such questions, the OT.

my wife is due a new ride and I’m trying to talk her into the same one you are looking at. She wants another wrangler but we already have a gladiator and I really like the new bronco. I rebuilt a 74 and there’s a 79 in my barn awaiting TLC.
if you go drive one let us know what you think.

That’s one of my concerns. I much prefer a V8 vehicle. The thought of a V6 gives me pause on the Bronco. And I definitely don’t want a four cylinder.

My plan is to research vehicles and be ready to test drive and buy probably around springtime.

You will probably have to pre-order the Hertiage, could be a while for that one. I have a big bend 4 door, love mine
