Bronco is a way to go.
I had my Bronco since the day they brought it back. I have over 85,000 miles on it and never have had an issue yet. It’s a great family SUV and also great at being off road. I live in Minnesota and It is the best SUV in winter driving. I have had many other vehicles through my life but The Ford Bronco I have to say it the best one yet.

Jeep Rubicon Convert to 2023 Bronco Wildtrak
I’ve owned many Wranglers. Last one was a 2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock. Loved it. Took it on multiple jamborees. Over the past year ran into multiple engine issues as I approached 100K miles. Decided to test drive and ended up buying a 2023 Wildtrak Sasquatch. Significantly better road manners than the Rubicon. The V-6 ecoboost has plenty of giddy up. Installed rock rails, winch and tubular steel bumper. The only complaint I have is the wind / road noise despite having the hard top. The frameless doors seem to be the problem. The MPG is equally poor Bronco vs Rubicon with larger tires. Overall, really enjoy the Bronco and look forward to getting on the trails.

LOVE IT!!!!!!
We have put about 5000 miles on our 2022 4 door Bronco and it has performed flawlessly. Just finished a 1300 mile trip and it was very comfortable with plenty of power while averaging just under 19mpg. We have the hardtop and Sasquatch package and get compliments where ever we are. Only complaint would be the wind noise, but when you combine a removable top and a vehicle shaped like a brick I really didn't expect it to be perfectly quiet. The seats are comfortable and the ride quality if much better than a Wrangler.

Purrs like a kitten, Presence like a wolf.
My wife has been wanting a jeep all her life until she saw the Bronco. We tried to order one but were on the dreaded wait list. Got lucky and found our exact build at a dealership. Have had it for a week and a have already put almost 600 miles on it. Highway over 75, to winding single lane roads. Far exceeded our expectations. Very comfortable to ride in and handles to roads smoothly. Hard top and yes there is wind noise but what do you expect for a vehicle where the roof comes off. With the B&O sound system, hardly notice the noise on casual driving. Interior is very user friendly, everything is positioned conveniently. For a guy who is 6'7. plenty of room and I do not feel cramped in the vehicle at all. Cant wait for warmer weather to take off the top and enjoy. We have a 2023 Outer Banks Advanced V-6. So far no issues to report, hope it stays that way.

Its great when its working properly
To clarify first two things, ours is the 2.7L 6 cylinder Black Diamond. Edmunds did not have the proper configuration in their drop down menu. I have owned many 4x4 vehicles throughout my life and actually use my 4x4s as they were intended but without heavy trail use, I am also a retired professional mechanic. We special ordered our 2023 Bronco new and have been driving it for just over a year. In that time we have experienced multiple and repeated electronic issues that have effected the infotainment system, engine management system and vehicle management system. These issues crop up roughly 50% of the time we drive the Bronco. We have brought our Bronco back to our dealer twice and each time we have been told that there is "Nothing we can do because it is a known issue to Ford" and that "Ford is working on an over the air update fix that will be released sometime Q4 2024". I have contacted Ford corporate directly about this issue three times and after thoroughly explaining what is happening each time Ford breaks contact and I never hear from them again. Issues started roughly 4 months after purchase and BEFORE our vehicle ever even saw a dirt road. Our infotainment system (touchscreen in the middle of the dash) would freeze and would eventually go completely black only coming back on after the Bronco was turned off for 10-15 minutes. Annoying but not the end of the world. After experiencing the infotainment system malfunctioning 5-10 times the more concerning issues with the engine management and vehicle management system started appearing. At this time we started getting messages on the gauge cluster that there was a "parking brake failure". These messages would ONLY appear when the infotainment system was malfunctioning and would appear both while parked and while driving. At the same time we started getting oil temperature warnings. Checking the oil temp gauge would show that the temp was at redline. This happened both while driving at normal highway speeds with the Bronco unloaded and once while towing an empty 5x8 flatbed trailer. Again this only happens while the infotainment system is malfunctioning. Our next set of issues happen 90% of the time we drive the vehicle even when the infotainment system is functioning properly. We do not experience a consistent or smooth idle. While the digital readout shows steady idle it does not read to the 10th (15xx) RPM. After attaching my scan tool I have found that the idle surges by roughly 50 RPM every 10-15 seconds. At steady highway speeds, constant 60-70 MPH, you can feel a slight surge in the power of the vehicle. I have not measured the RPMs at speed but it feels like there is also a 25-50 RPM variation when held steady at speed. For those times that our Bronco is functioning properly it is the most capable, comfortable and maneuverable (for its size) 4x4 I have ever owned. When it is functioning properly it makes for a very good daily driver that is just as comfortable getting groceries as it is taking a fire road in the mountains. Sadly though the issues outweigh the positive aspects of the vehicle. Our trust in our Bronco as well as Ford as a manufacturer have been eroded. After speaking with former colleagues, current mechanics and fellow enthusiasts it seems that these issues we have been experiencing are being experienced by many other Bronco owners. If I were to do it all over again I absolutely not purchase a Bronco.
