Very true! I set out first to have a Bronco, ordered one in 21, would be a 22. Nada, zip info, or build date after 10 months. Cancelled, bought a 22 XLT Ranger fully loaded off the lot for $10k less than my stripped Badlands Bronco. Best move I've ever made! No comparison in towing, usable room, win, win, win! And I've got heated seats which I love! And 0% finance, 5 years, truly was a no brainer!
Exactly the same, after waiting 18 months for a day 4 Bronco order I said the hell with it, went down to my dealer and bought my 21 XLT off the lot cash. Was tired of waiting for ford to get it's shit together on the Bronco roll out, best move I could have made!

you said late wife? did they pass? if so sorry for your loss. At least bring back in a ranger will be nice.
My wife passed away on November 2nd of 2023 from Lymphoma. I don't wish Lymphoma, Cancer or Leukemia on anyone. It destroys hopes and dreams.

Yes it does, my Son fought NH Lymphoma for three years, passed away in 2022. Your children are supposed to outlive you, he left behind a wife and 2 children.

My condolences to you. My MIL feels the same about her daughter passing. My wife and I had so many plans to travel and just being with each other. We were blessed to have almost 2.5yrs together after she was diagnosed.

Yeah cancer sucks. Sorry to each of you that have dealt with it. Over five years ago my wife dealt with stage 3 breast cancer at the young age of 32. thankfully she made it through and all is well. after she recovered and returned to work she found her way into a job at the local cancer center. the experience creates an immediate trauma bond to all others who've encountered it. i stand in solidarity with each of you.

as for your new truck, congrats! i'm dead serious when i say i REALLY like the pic you shared. shocking, because i'm very averse to white as a vehicle color. for some reason the color, trim, and wheels are all working together to be quite eye catching. so i'm super impressed and into that look! really, congrats on that!

so, if you've driven both the 5th gen and this new 6th gen, can you comment on the difference in the feel driving them? does this 6th really impress you in a way the 5th gen didn't?

I hate cancer!! Have 6 family/friends going through treatments right now.
Good looking truck. I thought Lariat would have bed steps, is that a different package?

I really liked my 2019 but it rode really rough. Quite a few others commented the same. My new one is night and day difference. The seats are much more comfortable as well. I only have 150 miles on it so I am still getting used to everything.

The steps were an option I decided not to get.
I wish you friends and family many blessings on their cancer treatments.
