Bronco back in the Family

DDavis

Jan 15, 2024

I have owned a 68 Bronco in high school - set up for the desert, then had a 91 Bronco in my mid-20's - set up for the beach, and now I have a 23 Bronco Badlands (non-sas). I am as happy as can be with the new Bronco, and my wife is happy that I am not driving her Gladiator anymore. 😁 I have had the Bronco for about two weeks, it has been on a road trip to NC - where I ran it through 30 miles of Service Access Roads going from 1800ft elevation to about 4500ft elevation and never had to use anything but Normal on the GOAT. Cannot wait for some more adventures, and it looks like we are going to get some snow in North Alabama for the next couple of days - that will be interesting...

A 4 dr Badlands hard top, no SAS, normal frt bumper. I hope you have LUX on it. Nice truck. Hope you have good luck like I have. I was in Idaho and Montana Sept. 2023. A lot of the roads you can run in a Prius, but the others the Bronco did well. I like the frt. suspension over the single axle Jeep. A much better ride. I had two Jeeps for about 20 years, an 04 TJ and and 09 JK Unlimited. For my type of off road the Bronco is a great truck. Have fun!

You are so going to love it. I still have my 93 Bronco and the 23. They are the same in name only. I started in a willy's (still have that too) and this new one is just awesome.

Congratulations and welcome! Glad you are loving it.
As a former Wrangler driver (for decades), I suggest that you not let your wife drive your Bronco. Lol!

First things first…..
Welcome to Bronco Nation!!!
Congratulations @DDavis on bringing a Badlands Bronco Home, I'm sure you’ll have many years to enjoy this amazing vehicle.
The Bronco is amazing in the snow, I hope you get the expected amount of white fluffy stuff so you can test its capabilities in the snow and in all conditions….

Is that by chance Azure Gray Metallic?
Congrats again!!!

Thanks for the welcome, and unfortunately all we got is ice - so it stays parked and I use my SxS or 4-wheeler right now. I got the Cactus Grey, it is a really awesome color - sometimes it looks greenish, others blue/grey and then sometimes it even looks white - it is pretty neat that it does this without a metallic or pearl coating.

I let my wife drive my Bronco a year ago, I haven't seen it since. At least she lets me wash and wax it and fill it with gas. LOL

Once the wifey gets ahold of the Bronco, you never get it back, unless she wants you to get it an oil change! I would order your second Bronco now . . . so you can unload her Jeep and you can get your Bronco back.😎
