2021 FORD BRONCO REVEAL

[warthog]

Saw this setup last week on Anna Maria Island on our mini -school's out vacay.
Although I am sure he paid way too much for the Braptor, you gotta respect his taste.
This was probably one of the best looking setups I have ever seen.

Those JC Whitney fender flares are hideous tho...

Ford finally got around to building mine, 2 years and 10 months after I made my reservation.

$26K after they applied the 2020 MSRP Price Protection, plus I pocketed the money they gave me for dropping the Sasquatch option. Great car for not a whole lot of money.

Color is Azure Grey Metallic. Loving the 7MT manual transmission !

Sadly, my Mom passed away several weeks ago. Buried her at the veterans cemetery with my Dad. Life goes on.

Back to the Bronco, you may notice that my wheels & tires don’t match my trim. I upgraded my Base steel rims and tiny tires to some takeoffs from a Badlands. Paid $1,200 for 5 wheels & tires, 285/70/17 BFG KO2’s plus those good looking rims. I will use the steel rims for winter tires.

Ford used the rubbermaid trash cans at the factory as a template.

There are some really nice aftermarket fiberglass body panels that make it look so much better, But I can't imagine paying $100,000 for the Braptor and then shelling out $14k plus labor plus paint to fix the look.

Gonna be sweet on the used market when all these bros are upside down and desperate though.
Again, Harry did it right. He ordered what he wanted, and he waited and made concessions. Mags are smaht.

I saw that guy tooling around the valley a day or so ago.

There are quite a few refurbed broncos around here.

I saw a raptor bronco in the flesh yesterday., those gigantic flares are inexcusable.

Just crossed 90 days and 3K miles with my new Bronco, great vehicle. So glad I went with the 7MT.

I love this We-No-Nah canoe as well. It’s newer than the Bronco. I’ve been exploring the rivers and lakes all over Northern Wisconsin with my fly rod and this setup all summer. Having a great time.

Now, that’s a handy tiedown spot.

No GOTOS points. Needs a snorkel.

clean rig for sure, sweet set up for tooling around.

[Bronco]

My first car was a POS '67 Bronco with the 170ci straight 6 and 3 on the tree with bad shift linkage. We bought it with 5 layers of paint on it, the last layer was school bus yellow. I ground off all of the paint and eventually primered it black. I really loved that rig but it was too unreliable once I was working full time and had to get to work every day. Found this photo at my office, will see if I have more at home. This photo was 1987, little brother riding shotgun, friend and I had just acquired some sweet MTBs and latest riding apparel. We also skied in jeans. Seems like we spent every weekend destroying our rigs and all week in the evenings putting them back together for the next weekend. Wife and I spent a lot of time in it when we started dating as well.



Here's a photo of the old Bronco in its final glory just before I sold it to get a more "responsible" F250 for working construction in 1990. This was a hill climb in an abandoned gravel quarry near my childhood home.



Been keeping an eye on the used Bronco market for what seems like forever. Finally traded our old cabin truck for a '22 Badlands 2 door on Saturday. Front section of top off for date Saturday night, rest of the top off for Sunday 4x4ing. Too much fun so we went for a few hours Labor Day before heading home for the work week. Bronco is way more fun and capable than the old F-150, happy we waited on the right used one. Midlife crisis vehicle purchase highly recommended.

Supposed to be hot again this weekend and might take the doors off to take my 80 year old dad out for a spin in the mountains. My dad set up my first online account with the username "Bronco" in 1997 for a commercial MLS system and it's stuck ever since. Nice to bring it full circle again.

Rad! Big old bronco fan. Have a 71 shitbox. Wasn't sure about new ones but they have grown on me. Especially the 2dr with sasquatch.

Sweet. Dig the green. Good story, too.

One of my favorite parts of this forum is reading stories like that.

If Chevy ever remade the Zr2 Blazer I’d have a similar one.
