Unfortunately I'm getting real close to the point where I'm gonna pull the plug. Sell my truck for the insane amount it is worth now, get a decent Ranger for a few years and just get an environmentally friendly Warthog in 2 years. I would like to sell before I hit 200k, and being I can get 27K for a 11 year old truck with 188K on the odo it seems crazy not to better to do it now where I can still find something on a lot worth buying. I had my cousin check today and mine still shows 6/21. Not deluding myself enough to think it can't change, but it hasn't yet. I understand where you're at. I'm close to 187k on the Flex and its value has shot up to like $6,500 in the last few weeks. Had I not been working remotely for the last 16 months, thus saving 250 miles a week, I would probably have had to have bailed at this point as well. I'm kicking myself for trading in my 08 Fusion last summer on Kate's new Explorer. We didn't get much for it and it would have made a great runaround car for me now to sell off the Flex for $$$ and wait patiently on my Bronco. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just checked mine now and I can't remember if it had the date or not, but its currently saying: "In Order Processing" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 You guys realize whoever gets their Bronco first has to let all of us drive it. It's the BON way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next step on that line is "in production." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2.7L is going to be a beast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just confirms that I don't need the V6. I put premium in all my Ecoboost engines. 300/330 should be plenty for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't that always been the case? I think losing 15 HP isn't going to be a huge deal if you use 87 vs 92/93 for everyday driving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrangler plug in hybrid hits the market soon. Gets about 20 miles on a charge. Staring price around $51,000. Imagine Bronco plug in will follow in couple years.

Anyone know if we'll see a Bronco Sport hybrid first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last we heard from PD is there are no plans for a hybrid Bronco Sport Of course we all know plans can chance so I guess anything is possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
