Nothing wrong with some modern amenities! Lol and as long as FCA isn’t behind the electronics it stands a chance.
Bronco time
- Thread starter Starrs
- Start date
Or as long as Ford doesn't pull another transmission-gate like they did with their DCT transmissions.
If you know about that fiasco, you'd all of a sudden think twice about Ford. Having been through that myself with our old Focus, I can tell you it's very alarming what they did.
Hopefully they learned their lesson, though I've heard a ton of people are having issues with the Mustang transmissions and have started another class action lawsuit.
$500 plus a month is the new norm for a car payment. It's no big deal, you can swing it

That statistic always surprises me, but I only ever buy used.
You don’t need the first one off the assembly line. Won’t be until this time next year anyway save up!
Looks like a great vehicle. If I didn’t have my eye on a Tremor and need to tow I’d be interested.
It's amazing, but somehow the average American consumer seems to have justified $500 plus a month and now 84 month auto loans.
Blows my mind!
I’ve always put vehicles in the same category as my toys, you don’t need them if you can’t pay for them.
You can buy a decent vehicle for under 5k why finance on for $50k? I hate paying a mortgage every month, I sure don’t need more payments.
I agree with you 100%.
Mark Cuban had said, "If you can't afford to buy it with cash, you shouldn't buy it in the first place.".
The exception he said of course was a house.
That's my thing with the TJ. I can have just as much fun in a old, cheap TJ as I can in a brand new JL, so why do I need to spend 50k for a brand new one?
That’s the only debt I don’t mind, but am seriously excited for the day we pay it off.
Come pick my ass up in your new Bronco Mr. Bills !!!

Looks cool, but pricing and availability will be stupid for the first few years at least. If you think the new Wranglers are overpriced...

Way more people out there than just Mr. Cuban preaching that haha. It’s common sense stuff. If you have to make payments you don’t need it. I fell into that trap also and glad I’m out of that mindset now. I’ll never have a car payment again. And to think some are making payments on a tj
I'm pushing to pay our house off early. My wife likes to talk about the interest deduction, but all I hear are fingernails on a chalkboard.
I told someone who was giving me the old interest deduction spiel, I said give me $10,000 today and in a year I’ll give you back $2,000. He wouldn’t take the deal.
