Today's video we'll be diving into the experience from placing an order for my 2022 Ford Bronco to owning, driving, and modifying it for overlanding adventures. How has your experience been with your Bronco?

as a jeep guy, I have one reason to dislike the bronco... the shitty engine options I'm a 2014 GT owner, put a 5.0 under the hood of the bronco the same way jeep put a 392 under the hood of a rubicon, and we'll talk

Nice set up for what I want to do upon retirement to spend the entire summer out west flyfishing. Basically not to rock crawl but be able to transverse all the dirt and gravel trails throughout Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. I won’t need a winch for that. Do love my WildTrak two-door. Came over from a ‘21 Rubicon and being a long-term Jeep guy. You’re right on the comfort aspect.

Sounds like we had very similar ownership experiences, I just got bored of mine after building it to my likings. I've got a 2016 Mustang GT Performance Pack and looking forward to modding this in similar ways to your S197. Thanks for the video!

So I have a 2 door 2022 WildTrak. Got it after waiting for what seemed like an eternity. I was an original reservation holder in 2020. It came in September of 2022. Mods, diode dynamics pocket lights. Arb on board dual air compressor. Bullet mounting solutions dash mount. Midland GMRS radio. Dash cam front and rear by THINKWARE from ford. An oil catch can. And some other small silly things. Para cord grab handles and the such. I have 11,000 miles on it and absolutely love the truck. Only problem I had was panel alignment from the factory. And as you stated I haven’t had to use 4x4 when off road all but a few times. It is a beast both on and off road. I love it. I am a ford person so maybe I’m biased.

Was going through my old photos, i was one of the guys at Americas Tire in West Sac that installed your 37s! Was working there while going to school. Small world lol. Recognized the white tow hooks and the same wheel/tires with the steps. Made me order one of my own lol. Tried to go through Future while I still lived in Sac but they were trying to say they couldn’t guarantee no markup when it arrived to which I said no thanks. Ordered mine in my home town area and got it lower than MSRP with my employee discount (ended up getting hired as a Diesel technician there!). Been loving my Bronco!

My biggest piece of advice to anyone looking to get into a Bronco is that if you want to save some money, and don’t plan on doing serious wheeling or off-roading, get a base with no lockers and mod it up to your hearts delight. My base, lifted, with 35’s did every major pass in the San Juan Mtns of Colorado with NO issues. 4LO, air down and crawl control is all you need in most situations. My biggest negative is just how cheap the interior feels. I came from a GX that was so solid in so many ways. I’m going on 1 year ownership and nearly sold my Bronco for an LX. But I’m going to hold on for a little longer.

My sister has one and it has required her to take it into the dealer 3 times - the average time for Ford to fix it each time is about 2 to 3 months - So they give you no loaner and you got to get a rental and pay for it until they vehicle is repaired and then they will cover the rental cost

I'd advise anyone seriously looking for either to wait for a good deal on a used one and keep it as a weekend driver. This will definitely benefit anyone who wants really offroad it.

My only problem with this type of vehicle is the price. Yes you can get cheaper trim levels but the fact that even the higher trim levels are 60 k plus is crazy to me. I have an outer banks Sasquatch on order that has a build date in less then a month. I test drove a wildtrak and thought it was cool but I thought it wasn't 65k cool because everything is just basic to me. My build comes right at 60K and I'm 25 and make decent money but I just picked up a second job just so I can save another 10-15 grand in the next 6 month just so I can put a decent down payment on it and still feel comfortable. I'm still not 100% sold that I'm going to get it just because of the payment I will have, even with 20% down l'm looking at over $800 just for the payment depending on the interest rate. If the higher end Broncos were about 20K less then it's a no brainer I think 40K for that type of car is reasonable. That goes for jeeps, Tacoma's, ETC.The price for cars nowadays is insane and it sucks for me in my 20s who would love to have a nice car but had to pay the price for it. I make about 60 to 70 a year. Any advice is appreciated.

As someone with a finance background. Don't do it. Especially if you have to finance a large portion of it with today's high interest rates. If you have to take a 2nd job to make your payments, you will grow to despise the vehicle. Because instead of going off-roading, you're stuck at work. At that point you don't own the vehicle, the vehicle owns you. Good news: rates will come down within the next 24 months. Vehicle prices will come down (currently everybody has too much Gov't $$$ from Covid stimulus which is why cars are so expensive. Once this money runs out things will get more reasonable.) Put your down payment into a 5-6% CD and comeback in 2 years for your Bronco.

@@chiefenumclaw7960 thanks for the reply. The second job isn’t for the payment it’s just to save another 10-15k. I have 22k In the bank and by the end of summer with a bonus I’m getting I’ll have about 28k and my reasoning to save that much more is so I can put a decent down payment and still have like a 6 month to a year emergency fund for whatever. When housing goes down I want to buy a place possibly a duplex so I can rent out the other side. So once the Bronco came in I would quit the second job. I’m all about preparation and don’t do anything stupid unless I really think about things.

Yes, I agree. I know it is a stupid decision and I’m not 100% going through with it just yet. It depends if I can find a good interest rate and how much I want to put down.

So don't wait and use 4x4 as recovery. 4x4 should be your default off pavement and you just don't need recovery. There's an element of 4x4 and momentum that gets you through mud and sand. Recovery is for when you did something you saw going into it is sketchy or when you stopped and sank. If you're going solo vehicle get a winch, but keep in mind desert doesn't always have something to attach to.

Guys, need some honest opinions here. I'm not an off-road guy, but I really want to buy a Bronco rn simply because it looks so cool,and I'm a big dude, I need some extra legroom. My previous cars are comfort SUVs, most of my drives are in city/highway.With the same money I could buy a 2021 X5 or other good SUVs, is it worth for a non off-loader to go for Bronco?

After seeing the bronco for a while on the road it took me a while to get used to the body styling of it and when I did, I wanted to consider it as an option for myself down the road. I’ve tried sitting inside a wrangler unlimited and I just felt claustrophobic. Did anyone ever felt that way with the bronco even though it’s slightly bigger than the wrangler?
@eskimocheeks9911
@eskimocheeks9911 4 ай бұрын
I don't find it's quite roomy enough in the interior for me, but it certainly felt better than the Wrangler. I am hoping whatever Toyota brings out for us will solve this issue along with not making a removable roof much a much more quiet interior. If they don't make it in manual I will cry.

Love them! They balance really well for 37s. Very smooth at 70+ mph. They are louder than typical A/T but that’s expected with the lugs. Not terrible though. Much quieter than my Atturo Trail Blades before. There’s a lot of tech in BFG KM3s - specifically in their sidewall and bands. They are a sister company to Michelin who’s the leader in R&D. They have exceptional on-road manners at 37psi and off-road at 5psi. These are some of the best tires out for M/Ts!

@@JacobRDoty I can’t speak 100% to it since I work in tablets and ereaders, but most of the supply chain has gotten better. There are still some suppliers that might be constrained, but a lot of the supply chain has gotten back to “normal”. My hypothesis is that car companies are intentionally slowing down production to milk the covid/supply chain constraints as long as they can.

Perhaps he liked the look of the Bronco Raptor that comes with 37s from the factory so he added a lift & 37s to his. It's the best of both worlds really. Now he has the narrower fenders & fender flares of the Bronco but the additional height, ground clearance, & the 37s like the Raptor.
