Ford Bronco - What's better than a Jeep, what's not - In-Depth Review by a Wrangler owner!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Ford Bronco is a seriously impressive vehicle that's unlike ALMOST anything else on the road. What is it like compared to a Jeep Wrangler? And more importantly, which one is best for you? In this video I try to help you answer those questions. Want to see this vehicle for yourself? Connect with the amazing team at Jim Gilbert's Wheels and Deals here: www.wheelsanddeals.ca/in-dept...

Getting better! The more stripped down and utilitarian they come, the better! I don't need all the electronic "luxury" bells and whistles (such as seat warmers, cruise control, power this-and-that, carpeting, TV monitors, ride-softening suspension, etc.). Something I'm not afraid to take out into the sticks and put fishing rods, muddy shoes, etc. into. I'd just as soon not have to pay for all those extra things! A true utilitarian 4x4 like the originals is what I want to see! 💪 Build these and I am sure people will buy them.
I get waves from both Bronco and Jeep owners when I'm in my first Gens (68&69) Broncos. I think it's more of a respect thing and the love of old iron. As far as my New Bronco (23 2 dr Badlands), I haven't had it long enough to say. I did get a thumbs down from a guy driving an old CJ-5. LOL
I have a 2DR Bronco Outerbanks and I absolutely love it. I waited almost 2 years for it but it was well worth the wait. The ride is smooth and so fun to drive. Sometimes I do get a wave from other Bronco owners

Thanks for sharing your experiences! It's a cool vehicle, for sure!
The loops on either side of the hood also tell you where the inside edge of your tires are so you can judge while off roading if you keep stock tires and rims. Once you go aftermarket rims and tires meaning different offset and back spacing then they are just brush guards for your wind shield
Good review. We own both a Bronco and a Wangler and like them both. The Bronco is a smoother ride on the road because of the IFS. Both are two doors and we get a little better gas mileage with the Wrangler, and yes we do wave. 😎
Very well done as usual
I have 4-door and through spring took the front doors off. First time's awkward but it gets easy, one person job. Helps to have the door bags because they have handles all over, gives an easy way to hold the door while positioning it. Once in position, it'll stay on its own, while you install and tighten the bolts that hold the hinges together (two per door). PS: I always wave or nod to other Broncos, usually get some acknowledgement, probably thumbs-up is most common. PPS: Big Bend trim is cheapest way to get a rear locker ona bronco (be sure to select the option), but I have found the front camera to be a big deal, a critical safety feature on trails, and you have to upgrade to at least Outer Banks to get it.
My two door big bend was just built, being delivered soon. Because of the lack of storage space inside, I am excited to use the loops on the hood to tie down cargo on the hood.
Regarding gauges: All are available all the time! But of course that means scrolling through a long list. Driver can create a custom short list of at most 7 faves.
Drives my lady crazy but, yes, I proudly wave to all Broncos and even the occasional Jeep! 22 4 dr Wildtrak, Lux, leather, black - ordered hour #2 … took delivery in March of 22 - 30k miles so far and loving it!!
Bronco owners in our area wave when we see each other, most days we don't see any.
Looks a nice short vehicle. Would be a good view reversing a trailer? I used to tow a sailing dinghy, and appreciated a good clear view when backing up in the boat park.

Yeah, and it turns very sharp. My Jeep Wrangler 2 door used to be really easy to back up with trailers. This would be similar.
What’re the largest ties that will fit on those 16” wheels ?
Interesting review, thanks. Will there be more details on the Kawasaki motorcycle line up soon? Any new videos with your new owned Kawasaki 900SE classic style motorcycle? How do you like it so far?

Just to be clear to this day jeep refuses to install factory 35 inch wheel and tires on there two door wrangler where as you can get this on the Branco from the factory
@PeterLoweOne

Yup. But the 2 door can handle those tires, a dealer would happily swap it at time of purchase and you could go home in a Wrangler with 35's too. Sometimes manufacturers have reasons for doing things like that, often related to hitting a fuel efficiency spec for factory equipped vehicles etc. There are other reasons too.
Hi
Why are so many car videos producers Canadians? Lol every car thing I watch is in Canada. I kinda want both jeep and a bronco

You're probably going to have to be open to letting other people be themselves if you plan to keep watching KZread. It's awfully difficult to cater to the preferences of a worldwide audience! 🙂

@@PeterLoweOne I deserved that. Just had a nitpick moment. I saw the Bronco prototypes quite a bit around Dearborn Michigan. I remember running up right next to a white two door Sasquatch unit with no camouflage while driving my cherry 1996 Ford Aerostar. I so wanted it!! I would even consider trading in the Aerostar for one…😁
Yes bronco owners do wave
Both are insanely overpriced. Mid-trims should be ~$30k.

I remember I bought my 2016 Jeep brand new for $27,000 Canadian. The equivalent Jeep is basically $40,000 now and that still has crank up windows. These capable off roaders are definitely not cheap anymore.
Advice: Try not to say "It is what it is". Counted 4 times at least in this video.

Noted: but advice... If you don't like the way other people do videos, make your own. Each of us are out here doing our best, and while that phrase may bother you, it isn't something I'm likely to change. It is what it is. 🤷♂️
This is competition for 4Runner or Land Rover. Jeep is in a class by itself.

When I see people riding these Broncos I keep thinking I'm a proud Wrangler owner.You can tell a Jeep from miles away , this vehicle just blends in just like the rest of SUVs.

I have to agree. I own a Gladiator and had a Bronco badlands and the Jeep interior is of much higher quality. Tons of soft touch materials in the Jeep.
Ford shd be making a version of this for the SE asian market. Such a dumb company
