New beater

I finally broke down and bought myself a new vehicle for the first time in 26 years. I really like the look of the new 2 door Broncos and when I accidentally sold my Silverado, I had to scramble to find something quickly. I found that 90% or more of the dealers are still marking these trucks up $5-15K and it took a little while to find a dealer that had what I was looking for and at msrp. I ended up getting it from Premier Ford Lincoln in Brooklyn and they even delivered it to my house. It's got the 2.7 V6 so there's no lack of power. I'm used to the regular cab short be pickups so this short wheelbase feels fine to me and the suspension is designed for the 35" tires with the Sasquatch package so it rides pretty nice. Now I just need to get used to this technology crap.
