Excursion vs. New Bronco

My dad was at the Ford dealership the other day and he said that the new "big" Bronco was as big as my Excursion. I finally found one of the "big" Broncos out in the real world, so I decided to do a comparison shot. Puny little thing, ain't it!

Yeah, they aren't that big. I haven't been inside one, but a co-worker has one on order so I might get the chance to see it up close and personal. These new cars have some pretty cool gadgets these days, that's for sure.

They're meant to compete with Jeep Wranglers, not full size trucks. The Expedition is the only thing that some close. Unfortunately the current build quality is sketchy from what I have heard & read. Hopefully that changes with the next model years. Nice looking truck but I'll stick with my Ex.

meh If they would have made a proper full-sized bronco with say, the Godzilla under her hood, I'd feel better about it.
I miss my bronco sometimes. It was fun. My Ex is like the centurion I never got to have.

Agreed 100%! I was so excited when I heard they were reviving the Bronco, then all of that excitement went straight down the crapper when I found out it was going to be sized similar to the 1st gen / Bronco II.

My wife wants a new Bronco.. so we will have one once the ***** dies down and they aren't $30K over invoice.. But ANYONE who thinks it's an Excursion, is an idiot.

But then again.. it was a car salesman.

I got my wife a new Bronco in a dream the other night. I loaded it up in the cargo area WITH the third row still in place and had room for my ice chest next to it...

I've thought about something similar to that. One of those little smart car things park next to me once. I said to myself "It could be handy to keep one of those in the back for emergency parts runs".
That was after I had stopped laughing.

So at the mall in chandler, they have one of these puny little things on display with sales people walking around near it trying to drum up interest and sell them, so i decided to have a little fun.

I chit you not, i ran up pretending to be suprised, told the sales person who had two people standing there, THANK YOU. THANK YOU, Dude where was it?

At this point the sales person and the two people are so confused so i dropped the punch line.

Sounding as excited as i could be i kinda shouted, "Dude where did you find my shoe, i have been looking for it everywhere!"

The sales person was pretty miffed but didn't say anything, his potential customers were laughing though as i walked away.

Im a 6 ft 5 big *** redneck, and proud of it, hehe.

But seriously, look at the still picture preview on that video right there, When i buy a car or truck, i expect to take delivery of it all at the same time, not just the front half while the rear is on back order.
