Can we talk about the Bronco in front of it?

Honestly, I’m not a fan of the new Bronco. It looked way bigger in photos and videos, but it’s kind of disappointing in person.

It’s built on the Ranger platform, so it’s not huge. It’s meant for trails, not for being a family SUV. Making it bigger would ruin its purpose.

I get that, but I think they could’ve done better. I miss the one I had back in the 90s.

They nailed it for what it’s meant to do—off-roading. If it were bigger, it wouldn’t work for trails. It’s not supposed to be a minivan alternative.

Fair point. I sell them, though, and I’ve had customers cancel orders after seeing them in person. They all thought it needed to be just a bit bigger.

I love big cars, but is the size something your wife needs or just wants?

Not the original poster, but I bought one just because I liked it. Didn’t need it at all.

I get it. I use an Edge for trips and it works, but I still dream about upgrading to something bigger someday!

The Edge is nice, but yeah, the Expedition is definitely a step up if you can justify it.

I’ve got a 2019 Limited Max. Thought I needed the space, but even with three kids, we rarely use the third row. Still love it, though.

We’ve got three kids and do road trips, so the space was a must. Our 2020 Explorer just didn’t cut it, and I wanted to be comfortable driving too.

That’s a sweet ride!

Looks great! I wish they blacked out the chrome around the windows, though.

Nice!

Why am I even on this forum?

Because you decided to check out the Ford forum?

True. I followed this for info about Ford’s cars, but now it’s mostly trucks and SUVs. Guess I’m just scrolling out of habit.

I’ll probably swap this for the 23 or 24 model once the lease is up. It works for now.

Is that a Bronco parked in front?
