Brutalism and these monstrosities have nothing in common. 

Also if you want to get “vintage” bike as first bike, Triumph Bonneville can be had quite cheaply, is nice to ride, reliable, practical and fun enough to keep even though you might want to get some other bike too. I mean right amount of bikes is N+1.

Have you seen the new GT/Interceptor 650? It’s actually quite good for a $6k bike

The price is absolute insanity. There is a huge selection of bikes for less than that that will crush this thing in every conceivable category. If you want an old school bike get a Boneville, W800, GT650, etc. That motor comes in 4-6k Chinese bikes.    

I believe the staff received Juneteenth holiday off hence the limited new articles today (just like every other major holiday).

This argues the point raised by others: The livewire is too expensive for their target market.

How much rust is too much?

Joe Manchin and Mitch McConnell exist. 

And thankfully moved out of California back to my beloved Nevada. :)

I did do a fair amount of reading before diving in.

Is the seat designed to be collapsed/extended, creating more interior storage space if a second seat is not necessary? If so, it’s a great idea, if not held back by the execution of comfort.

This is the real wild card. Wranglers have always rode like garbage and we had accepted it as a necessity to build the best/purest off-roader. Bronco will either prove the same point, or prove that it was just Chrysler being Chrysler. 

Get a two door bronco and a utility trailer, lol

Same here. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and a Chevy SS, but I would like to have a Bronco as well. I just hope they drive better than the Wrangler I got as a loaner when I had my GC in for service. It was all over the road like a knuckleball thrown by Phil Niekro.

It’s OK to want one.  The Bronco falls well outside the category of “need”, anyway.

I have been a wrangler owner my entire driving life. I want a bronco and I hope it is every bit as good as it looks... otherwise I’ll get another wrangler

Similar boat here. I want/need and will probably buy the Maverick but seeing the 2 door Bronco has my brain trying to erase all memory of the Maverick.

So, Orange Man good? I’m not used to this hot take. 

You’re seeing the Bronco Sport, which is smaller and worse.

No A/C no deal.
