Actually the base model Bronco looks more attractive than the base model Wrangler.

Honestly that base model w/ steelies and two door looks awesome. Good choice.

I work at the Wayne plant in Michigan. It’s always so cool seeing videos of people getting a car that you help build!

The base is the best looking Bronco in the lineup.

Sam, you nailed it....perfect trim level and awesome low price!!! That's all you'll ever need. Good job!!!

I'm a huge fan of this thing, I think it's a great deal in this spec. In the limited off roading I've ever done a more narrow vehicle is a good thing. Love the look of the Raptor and other big wheel types as well, but as far as the deal you're getting here they don't stack up.

You have my BRONCO!!! If I hadn't bought my new Class B RV Ford Transit 350 HD Dually, I'd have me pretty much that exact trim two door. I'm a flatlander and don't need all the offroad kit. This is the one!

Great review, thanks. I’ve had my base 2.7 Badlands for 2 years now and love it. But the base Base is great value if your not going to rock crawl or heavy off-road 😊

I own this EXACT vehicle and I LOVE IT! Only “upgrades” I got was the automatic trans and the modular bumper. I absolutely love this truck with its color and clothe seats 👍👍👍👍

The Asian guy in Irvine, CA was so fucking hilarious. Greatly appreciated that

Fifteen months is not bad. I ordered a two door Black Diamond in January 2021 but after waiting more than a year I changed my order to a four door in May 2022. Car was built in September and delivered in November. I like it but would have preferred the 2 door. Have fun. 😎

I waited 18 and 1/2 months for my base manual and yeah it was worth it. I freaking loved it besides the hardtop issues. When I got my first notification that it was going to be billed was in November of 22 and I actually got it in very end of February 23.

Congrats! Great video. Hoping to get the same base when prices (hopefully!) come down.

What a great looking truck! The designers did a great job of the retro look, and modern drivability. Great Vlog!

Awesome car sir! I hope the Base comes back into production at the start of next year I was hoping to place an order after I graduated engineering and worked for a bit. Your production quality is also great on the vid!

I got the same one same color but 2022 and manual transmission. And the sticker price was $28,500. You will love your Bronco! I did option the modular front bumper, aux switches, roof rails, and block heater. Since I got it, I put on a 2" Zone leveling kit and 35" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss AT's on 17" matte black Fuel wheels. Ceramic tint, 12" sub and amp, Husky floor liners for the front back and rear, rocker panel armor, yellow Oracle triple fog lights, Rough Country ditch lights, bug shield, and several other little things. Just hitting 20,000 miles with no issues and it handles like a boss off road.

Congratulations! Love my Eruption green Base Bronco

Nice job on the video…thoroughly enjoyable. I’ll look for more from you.

Perfectly spec’d! Well done 👍🏻

I liked that the delay explained itself, when you waled by the loaded version for ten thousand more. one could hardly expect them to not build a bunch of the high profit cars ahead of every base model they put out. when an ex GM executive , John Drloran, wrote a book he touched anther subject of profit using the Cadillac Cimeron as an example. Said they added about $500 worth of parts to a nova, got thousands back in profits.

I have a Base with the modular bumper and aux switches. I don't even want anything more, this is perfect.

Welcome to the two door Bronco club. I waited 807 days for my Badlands 7spd MT. Loving every day with it.

Nice Truck! I would have gotten the 7 speed MANual though.

Love it! Very Classic look. Congratulations. I bought a 2 door in eruption green. Ships next Thursday.

2 door Bronco sticks with the tradition of the original Bronco. I like it. Now they need to offer the 7 speed hand shaker with the 2.7L also.

I always thought that I could never afford a bronco… I never thought the base model could be that nice.. thank you for your insight. Great video and very funny… thank you Asian guy just kidding about the second part

Good for you my friend….. I can hardly wait to experience my turn.!. Hope you like it.!.

Nice video! I hope you'll enjoy your Bronco for as long as you own it. By its size and basic design, the generation Bronco you just took delivery of, is definitely more of an off-road vehicle than most other vehicles on the market. I drove the old Series Land Rovers from 1964 to 1993. Been driving a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon since April 2012. I'm still driving the same Jeep, and I still very much love the vehicle. It's been perfectly reliable. My Jeep was factory ordered from a dealership in Provo, Utah in January 2012. It didn't arrive at the dealership from Toledo until 16 April 2012. They had it for a day or two to fit some after market accessories: Warn winch, steel front and rear after-market bumpers; a moderate (1.5 inch) suspension lift, a second set of wheels and Michelin tires, and several more minor modifications. In my opinion, a factory order is definitely the way to go for people who plan on keeping "their" vehicle for a long, long time, as doing so gets you into the very vehicle YOU want rather than the vehicle the sales person and dealership want to sell you. You did a superb job placing a factory order from a dealership in California, as most dealers in California and elsewhere (including Utah and Hawaii!) want to make "the" sale today, and not in a few weeks, a few months, or the fifteen months you had to wait. God knows, I'll bet the dealership tried to get you into various other vehicles "right now, today," many times during your fifteen month wait. Congratulations for waiting!! This tells me you have well above average intelligence and think for yourself. Way to go! Andy McKane, Molokai, Hawaii.

Hey, great job on the video. Production quality was excellent although I wasn't surprised once I saw what industry you must work in. Love the price point of staying with the base model but wish they would've put some better tires on it. Those steelies are great and will look even better with a beefier offroad tire on them against those wheels flares. Maybe spray the steelies a satin black though to match the black flares and black trim pieces. BTW I already knew you were Korean before you mentioned it in the video. My brother in law is Korean and we were just talking this weekend about how we haven't gone for some good Korean BBQ in quite awhile, Korean food is so good! Can't wait for an update on your new Bronco.

I have a 2022 Base 2dr, with a manual transmission. It saved enough money for me to personalize it the way I wanted instead of paying for options I did not care for. It is a lot of fun.

Your 2 door Base model looks awesome. I love the color also. Great value for the price. Enjoy!

Congratulations!! That is a nice Bronco!!

Nice classic look for the base model. Dig the steelies and the color. Nice ride.

Loved your bronco, considering getting one like this.

I like the color of yours! I have base model 4 door in white with soft top. I really like it. Nothing compares to the look of the bronco. And for the price of the base model it is awesome.

Thank you so much for being a part of my creative journey Warm regards, (stockaudios) 😊

2 door looks awesome! Congratulations

You can't beat the 2 door base Bronco. It's a lot of bang for the bucks, and a blank canvas for mods to make it an off road monster. I won't go too far into my Bronco order fiasco, but it resulted in me just canceling the order. I reserved in Oct. '20, and ordered on May of '21. Because on constraints, and Ford changing the allocation formula to favor the big dealerships my local dealers allocations fell a lot. He had a lot of orders, and with all the mess my build date was pushed to possibly the fall of 2024. I gave up. But I'm a big boy, and figured it was just a first world problem. Enjoy that new Bronco, it's a beauty.

I love our 4dr Base Sasquatch, I did upgrade to the V6.

Actually looks really nice! Great job.

Hey @SamHuh I am your 100th subscriber! Awesome Bronco u got there!

Had me dead with that Irvine comment😂

"What are my thoughts for waiting over a year for this car.... I like it" lol

Congratulations my fellow 2 door bronco owner

Congrats! Base models, from what I hear are hard to get. I'm up here in Belleville Michigan. My dealer here in Belleville is only 7 mi from the Wayne Assembly plant that builds these bad boys. My schedule to build for my WildTrak is not too long from now (week of 7/19). I'm Optimistically hoping the distance between will help in delivery time. Anyway nice ride, have fun and good luck!

Super nice. Enjoy it!

15 months…………you’re far more patient than I.

The base is what I would get, yours looks great 👍

Cool beast of a truck!

It took me 508 days to get my hybrid Maverick and i am really happy with it

Great choice of color, great choice of trim level. Now put some miles on this vehicle.. share your experience…

A great video for people looking at the best options for the least amount of money

Looks very cool

For a base, it's a great looking Bronco. Lots of value for the price.

Great looking spec. Just like the original with few options

Wow!!! wanna get one too!!!!

Good buy. You can build it up now to whatever you want!

Great video.

"just kidding about the second part" - hope Im not the first to point out, sitting in that beautiful piece Detroit automotive history, you could never be more red blooded American !!!

Those wheels are identical to my 09 Kawasaki ATV nice!

Would be nice if it would have AT's. That way it would be ready to take on medium 4x4 roads straight out of the box. But I guess you buy a set for $1500 and sell the ones on it for $500 for a $1000 cost. Hopefully the traction control will work since it doesn't have a locking diff.

"just kidding about the second part".....lmao. Loved your video and the ability to show that you don't need to spend an extra 20k to get a badge on the fender. Did you get a soft top too?

Nice review 👍

5:08 “but getting here”..lol would have been hilarious to have the bulk of the driving portion being stuck in one exits worth of Cali Freeway…😂

Nice Bronco!

Nice review Sam Hugh

Similar story for me. Ordered 2022 cyber orange 2-door base with stick in late Dec. 2021. Received mid November 2022. Price matched at under $32k. I assume you ordered 2022 in Feb but got converted to 2023? A base at this price was best bang for the buck. Doors and roof off is great. Recommend Top Lift Pros roof removal tool (expensive but worth it). Love this car. Only obvious thing you are missing is the manual transmission 😊

The line about "why is an Asian guy driving this" cracked me up. Nice video.

My wife and I have 2 broncos (long story …could have a KZfaq channel on it😅) anyway ….first one is a base model 4 door with the 2.7 ,hard top in azure grey (similar to Area 51) dealer installed lift and 35” tires on black method wheels…..before we bought this bronco we couldn’t find one we liked so I special ordered a outer banks Sasquatch model. Hot chili pepper red , 2.7 with the hard top and leather! Was told it would be at least 6-12 before I would see it ….3 months later the dealer called and said the bronco I ordered was on its way to the dealership! …NO WAY? 😮 Wasn’t gonna buy it but after checking it out and loving the way the one we already had drove , we decided to get that one also…. My salesperson said I had ordered a unicorn with the options I had placed …..doubt I’d ever find one like that! Which in my searching for a bronco originally , they were probably right!

They say you can slap the samsquatch gear on any variant so does that mean you can get a base with the lockers & the rest of the squatch set up ? Ps if that's the 2.3 then I'd say do that KN airfilter and a good dyno tune as some have shown a 70+ horse power increase.. enjoy your new rig.

Unless your in the raptor, sport mode does not tighten up the suspension.

I am an avid off roader, and have driven many trails, such as the Fordyce trail and the Rubicon as well as many others. I have been to a number of SVRA's and had a great time. I never had a break down, knock on wood. So, I was all excited when I heard that ford was coming out with a new bronco line. Right up until I started reading the stories about how they were equipped, and the physical size of the vehicles. I quickly changed my mind. Oh, and Sam, if it only took 15 months for you to get yours, you are extremely fortunate. It took my neighbor around 26 months to get his, and it has been plagued with problems since he took ownership. The main reason I stepped away from wanting to order one is simple. Too Many Electronics. Electronics that control just about every aspect of the vehicle. Electronics that if one little thing fails while 20 miles from nowhere on a 4-wheel drive trail with no cell service and you're walking home my friend. I once had a 77 Jeep Golden Eagle. No electronics, was about 5 miles down a 4-wheel drive trail (and we didn't have cell phones then) and the engine quit running. I always carried a tool kit and some spare parts. But with all my efforts I could not get it started so I ended up walking. I ended up having it towed to a shop, the mechanics poked and prodded it for 3 days before they figured out what the problem was. It turned out that the wire from the coil to the distributor had a fusible link in it. And the fusible link failed. Now consider all the electronics on all vehicles today, hell you cannot even adjust your mirrors without the computer controlling them. Think about how many of those controls involve the engine, transmission, front axle, ride height, and ....... Imagine just one item failing. I mean sure you can carry spare parts, but do you have the knowledge or expertise to figure out what part failed, and then what are the chances you have that part? I have Jeep Rubicon, just before the pandemic the transmission went into limp mode. Turned out the Transmission control module failed. Guess what Chrysler don't stock those parts any more. So, you have to look for rebuilders and many of them want a rebuildable core or you're out of luck. It took me almost a year to find a good rebuilt unit. I got it installed, started it up and although the transmission shifted into reverse and drive with no problem. I still couldn't drive it. The engine had no oil pressure so I had to shut it down. I got it to the shop, and they ended up replacing the oil pump. And that solved the problem. The only explanation they had was that it had sat for so long the oil pump lost prime and could not pump oil to the engine. So, I ask again, what are you going to do when those electronics fail and you find out that Ford doesn't stock replacement parts because they cannot get the chips to build enough of them to fill the orders they already have to fill. Good Luck to everyone that trusts Electronics and Computers in your vehicles. I don't. My wife bought a nice new car a couple years ago, and I will not drive it because the damned thing thinks it can driver better than I can. I will keep my older vehicles that I can still (for the most part) work on. One last note, you do understand that all those electronics are the biggest reason for the outrageous prices for is asking, don't you?

I was curious if you knew what is meant by the blue or green dot highlighted in the ‘production’ stage of the vehicle order. I had seen mine toggle between green and blue but there is no date next to the production stage. Mine was scheduled to be built the last week of June 2023. I do have the VIN and was provided the window sticker. Your thoughts?

Domino's Pizza Tracker!!!! Priceless. 🤣

I would have gotten the base manual if I where you! It is cool though!

Absolutely and Simplisticly Beautiful. I notice that the tailgate is hinged on the wrong side for the American Market as it forces one to walk around the tailgate when loading from curbside. This video is entertaining and inspirational. Thank You Kindly.

That’s a nice Bronco. Enjoy off roading in it!

They filled it with Premium Fuel but it calls for Regular 87? What fuel do you plan on fueling it with?

I like the styling, options etc. But have you seen the front and rear crash tests? Oof

I ordered my 23 Big bend 2 door in late March and picked it up June 5th. I love it. If you think the turn radius is crazy. Try the trail turn control off road. It's amazing.

Looks like an awesome ride. Congratulations! How does this stack up against a Wrangler? I'll be mostly mall crawling.

If you love the bronco (nice truck btw) then the wait was worth it. Now the aftermarket part shopping should be faster lol

Nice review. I guess your only option was the automatic. I am considering the same thing. Best of luck.

Sport mode does not change the suspension. It may affect the steering but not the actual suspension. Since you’re in LA how soon before we see your Bronco on top of Bronco Knoll?

I think the Ford Bronco Base Model has all the bells and whistles and gets good gas mileage and goes from 0-60

$34K is a solid deal on a truck like this.

These wait times are ridiculous. I'm about to order a super duty Tremor and wait times have me nervous. I need my truck but not so much that I'm willing to accept less by buying what's available on dealer lots.

I also ordered a Badlands 4 door in area 51. My father worked at area 51 for many years. That's my reason for ordering in that color. I waited 2.5 years. I had the same salesman, he gave me the same course. Same traffic, too. Nice video.

Very nice!

I dig those basic wheels. Looks more like an older one. 2.3 or 2.7?

Ford should build a rainbow pride edition those will sell like hotcakes.

LOL!!!! Funny Asian guy! Solid video.

Without price protection, it was not as good of a deal, as the price increases were savage. Just got my second order from 2021 (the first one came in 2021, second in 2023). Nice Bronco there. It's better with the 2.7 engine, but even with the 2.3 it's not a slouch.

It didn't have a tow hitch hmm are you going to add one latter

I really like the base trim 2 door. Too bad Ford won’t want to make many of them.

noticed you were driving an Element like me. how does this compare to the element?

Your Hilarious , I predict base will be in style soon. The industry has gone max feature and all will swing back

What's the number for Ford's protection plan. I have a maverick been built.

It looks so much smaller than the nice looking expensive one. Is it really smaller?

How long did you wait for that sweater with three colors?
