    That looks great in black!

    I dropped my day 1 bronco reservation when I found out the transmission was made in China. Not having any of that especially on a vehicle touted to be so American. So, I ended up with a Japanese 4runner

    Smart man. Wait for the new Bronco to be out a couple of months then start reading the horror stories on the forums when the issues start to surface. I wouldn't even consider any UAW product at this point, and most definitely not in the first production year!

    @canadian.bacon yeah man it’s already hopeless in Buffalo till like June lol.

    @DrewMan did a 4 hour round tripper last night in heavy snow. Stock bridgestones are ok but a little floaty. Cooper AT3s go on next week.

    Not impressed with the stock Bridgestones either. Smooth and quite on pavement, but been nervous about snow. Fortunately, we haven’t had any to speak of so far this year. A poor snow experience would help justify the cost of replacing replacing new tires though. I can’t imagine any off-road performance out of them by the looks either.

    I got my Bronco deposit back after I got my 2021 Nightshade and never looked back. Ford dealer actually called me on Friday and asked me to come in to place my formal order anyway? Promised delivery in 4th quarter of this year, I also told them I met somebody else...lol

    good choice!

    Same here. Had reservations for a Badlands and Wildtrac Broncos. I’m finally taking delivery of the Venture next week. 10k less than the Wildtrac!

    I was very interested in the new bronco, but I just built and priced a base model with Sasquatch and hard top, with freight and pdi they’re 60k up here in Canada. That’s ridiculous. I can get a trd off road premium for right around 50k Canadian. Good choice on your 4runner. I had a trail premium new in 2016 and will be buying another soon. Best built vehicle I’ve ever owned.

    I love this thread!

    I walked away from my First Edition reservation and made the move to the 4Runner.

    only regret? I didn’t do it sooner!

    Might have just been the Bronco Sport, as the actual Bronco still hasn't released yet. The Sport is just an Escape with a boxier Bronco'ish body on it.

    I'm still intrigued by the actual Bronco if/when it every becomes available, and might end up replacing our second vehicle (currently a ranger) with one... but will never take the place of my 4Runner.

    For me personally, the best Bronco's were the old big one's with the V8's. I remember this one from a movie "Pepe the Little Mule" from some Romance Movie (I don't remember the movie but the truck I do!

    To bad they will never make anything cool like this any more.

    For me personally, the best Bronco's were the original 1966 - 1977 Bronco's! I had a 77 and a 76, both with the 302 V8! I would love to have that 77 Bronco back! The big Bronco's began in 1978!

    Loved all the old Broncos, Blazers, Scouts and Landcruisers in the day (60's / 70's).
