New Bronco?

[parker ed]

What do you guys think of the new Bronco’s? Looking for a new vehicle.

If your buying a Ford make sure to sign up for Mustang Club of America. For a $30 yearly membership you get X Plan pricing. No haggling, saved me about $6k off MSRP on my 350 yesterday. Don't think I could have gotten better without it. It's just a math formula based on the price of the vehicle, not a made up number dealer to dealer. There's a 90 day period before you get the code

What year is your 350?

What year is your 350?

2024, lariat with the tremor package

 

[Flatsix66]

We just picked up a 2 door base model with the Sasquach off-road package added , love it so far.

 

[boatpi]

I have had one for 18 months. Got Wildtrack. I would highly recommend that model. It’s has literally every option. Make sure it has the advanced package. It comes a Sasquatch, the wheels tires and everything kind of one price fits all probably window sticker in the mid $60,000 range a little above.

It’s been a flawless suv.vehicle. It’s sort of my every day driver and Las Vegas

figure. It’s gonna get ,unless you hit it hard , about 18 miles a gallon with a twin turbo V6.
It’s not the vehicle I would drive back-and-forth to Los Angeles and because of the tires and it’s unique design, but it works quite well for less than 100 miles turning radius out parking lot so it has a lot of pluses

Off road it’s insane just minor riding and shooting, but it’s glued. One warranty claim. The telemetric on the 12 inch screen like most new Fords is absolutely flawless. They really have it down.

My wife got one last May. Only have 5k on it so far. No issues except a seatbelt recall and had the oil changed since it was there. She had it on order for over 2 years. We often joked if she would get the Bronco, or I would get my Speed car first. No Speed car yet, so she won that by a mile.

It's a great short-trip truck. It is a bit noisy though even though we have the hard top. We did drive it in a severe storm this winter (just rain and wind) and it felt very planted and secure.

Our middle kid had this cooler painted to match and his sister made the letters on her sticker maker. We keep it in the back for holding stuff.

Did it sell at, above, or below sticker?

I have a 2023 Bronco Raptor. Hands down funnest vehicle I have owned. As stated. It’s a bit noisy on the wind noise. Stereo is pretty ok. Drives like a cloud and you can seriously throw it the beans off road…super capable out of the box. I got a couple buddies that have the wildcat and Sasquatch models they absolutely love them.

 

[rivermobster]

My BIL had one of the first ones. Sold it after a year and made a couple of bucks.

He now has a Fully loaded F150 extended cab I think? Far more practical for his needs.

Arggg. Wish I knew that before ordering my 350. Said there was no haggle on builds.

Yep, the wife's Bronco won that race by about 8 months. She loves hers... like others say it's a little noisy on the highway but she had a Shelby before and it's pretty noisy too.

We bought it at a Ford dealer as CPO used with 1k miles, but it was never previously registered, so it comes with a 100k CPO warranty. Paid $43k, which is below MSRP, but other dealers I talked to seem to be offering below MSRP on new ones as well these days and plenty on the lots to choose from. One cool thing is Ford offers for free a off-road course in Moab and other places https://broncooffroadeo.com/

This green one made me look twice at them. Guy told me the tires and wheels are stock.

Is this discount for the mustang only or would it work with a bronco raptor?

 

[Andy B.]

My buddies son has one not sure what package but he showed me some 4wheel footage in some pretty heavy trails the thing is legit!

 

[brecht]

I don't think so. Pretty sure the performance lines (raptors and the higher end mustangs) are excluded

 

[gqchris]

Ill agree with everyone, i have the Softop. Its noisy on the freeway, forget having a phone call.

And the rear doesnt have AC vents which is my only other gripe.

Offroad its a blast. I have the BadLands package. Comes with everything. Lockers, sway disconnect and BAJA mode. Lol.

Its pretty damn fun.

[27Daytona]

Just my opinion but Ford really missed the boat by not offering this vehicle in a V8 configuration. There would be one in my driveway if they did

 

[Dog boy]

Agree that a V-8 would have been a good option but now that I moved to Idaho and sold my boats this Bronco is a great little toy for the terrain and winters here.I removed the back seats and fabed

a flat panel for the dog.I live five miles from the St.Anthony sand dunes and plan on taking it there now the weather is good .

What did you use for the panel? I just sold one last week and the owner wanted to do this for his dog. He also bought a 2dr.

Got my wife an Outer Banks with the Sasquatch for her birthday. She loves it. Feels like a race car compared to my F350. Wind noise is very noticeable, but it’s cool how easily the front three roof panels come off. The only thing I wish it had is memory seats. I’m 6’2” and my wife is 5’2”.

Am I reading this right? Are you saying the new Ford infotainment systems are flawless? Because my '24 F-150 work truck (has the upgraded larger screen and all) says otherwise when it freezes up at least once a day and can only be reset by turning the truck off and back on. Forget about the Apple Carplay working correctly, wired or wireless.

 

[boatpi]

Both my f 250 and Bronco have zero issues.

Made a template to cover the entire back area fwd of the storage area.Used plywood drilled holes and secured using mount bolts from rear seat attach points also used heavy duty black carpet.There are a few Bronco sites on you tube that show step by step fab and installs try Bronco6Gforum and also a company in Orange County that sells the whole cover that are spray lined but they are over 1K and you can do it yourself for very little money and not much time.Dog loves the room and in my situation it's just her and I traveling in it.

The screen on my 2022 F350 goes black almost once a day. Press and hold the power/volume button and the Seek Up (>>|) button simultaneously to do a soft reset while driving.

Do you max out the seating room at 6'2"?
Considering one for my wife but if i can't fit is a no go, 6'7".

Thank you. I will pass that along to John.

I had to connect my f150 to wifi to update the system. Now it connects and works great.

I set the seat all the way down, but not all the way back. I can get comfortable. Everyone's posture is different, so you should for sure do a test fit.

I am 6"4, and fit nicely.

My left leg/knee does hit the door handle naturally when sitting which pisses me off. I just stuck a gel pad there.

They only show 1 2023 Bronco in stock. It is a Raptor with a msrp of $96k. (so cal)

Perhaps I'm looking at the wrong Fairway? What dealership is the ad from?

How are the bronco raptors nearly 20k more than the F150 raptors?

 

[Outdrive1]

I know a couple people with them and they aren’t happy with how noisy they are. Hard tops or soft tops, both are noisy like a Jeep. Not great for road trips

We put a carpet kit, sound deadener kit and headliner kit in our 4 dr hardtop, made a HUGE difference. I think my 23' F250 has worse cab noise now.

What do you guys think of the new Bronco’s? Looking for a new vehicle.

Whatever you do buy the Ford Warranty through Granger Ford, IA online. They sell the premium care packages for only $50 over cost, purchased 3 warranties through them... just need a Non-CA address.

FORD: AAA #1 Customer!

 

[Blue Oval]

If anyone is looking for a 2dr Heritage edition, I will make them a great deal. Ford is sending me a 24 that I didn't order.

Yes they are noisy like a jeep why would someone buy a car not knowing how it drives and then complain about it.I have driven my Bronco to Montana multiple times and N.Idaho with no issues and I have 37in wheels and tires actually drives better on the Hwy.

2024 Transit 250 has the upgrade screen and we have tons of issues with it
