Pros: Ford
Cons: First model issues
I think the only ones available right now are the smaller sport models, I've heard of a few recalls on them already. We reserved a full size wildtrak as soon as it opened up last July and were just recently able to finalize order a few weeks ago. It is supposed to be in June or July but I'll be surprised if they hit the deadline. I don't care to buy first models and something you can't see or drive but when it comes in and if you don't like it you're not obligated to purchase. The wife always wanted a Jeep wrangler and I refused due to past Mopar issues so when the bronco was announced I lost my argument. The dealer said if you don't have one reserved/ordered it will be a long wait and there are no incentives at all due to high demand.

I guess I'm just an old Bronco fan because the new ones look butt ugly to me. Loved my '86 full size.

Sorriest built vehicles on the road, sure the bronco's will be the same. Not a fan of new vehicles of any brand though, sensor crazy and always something going out, days of shade tree mechanic's are over as well. Need a 30 grand computer to tell you which sensor is out, most small shops can't afford those, HELLO 200.00 a hour slow moving dealership shops to work on them.

Cool looking vehicle which is what sells vehicles, people like the way they look and never think of anything else. But after about 4 F 150's Ford is last on my list of brands id buy.

Im sure once they get the new plant opened in Mexico supply will increase.

I haven't seen one on the road yet. But I wish Ford would make an exact (body wise) replica of the ones made up to 1977. I had a 74 and a 79 and an 86 bronco 2. The 74 was my favorite.

My neighbors wife is driving one. He is company man at ford so it's on the lease program he can get. It looks nice but I like the 4 door.

She seemed quite happy with it.

Might be waiting quite awhile on a new one boys and girls. Was on the news last night that ford can't get the chips for the computers in the vehicle.

Sorry only had a 74 and 69 and 83 and 86 (I think)
1 was a gutless wonder but 3 were great.

Pretty little red 79 FJ40 Land Cruiser sitting out here in the shop, I’ll stick to that.

Got to test a few of these out, there capability is impressive. Nobody got stuck and we took them through some rough terrain through the woods, mud, and rock crawling. Attached a few pics, it was an awesome experience ford put together with gunstock resort.

I have had nothing but good luck with my F-150's, my f-350 was junk. As for mechanics, If I take a truck to the dealer, it gets fixed today, If I take it to a shade tree mechanic, Well, I might forget what color it is by the time I get it back.
