Bronco listed at 53k … but I’m not loving the color

Found a Bronco listed at 53k on their website. The only thing holding me back is the color. I’m not a huge fan of cactus gray, but the rest of the specs are great, and the price seems solid. What would you do in this situation?


What are you trying to figure out here?

Probably deciding whether to buy or not.

If you like the price, go for it. Cactus gray is an awesome color.

@Briley
If cactus gray is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

I personally love cactus gray. I have a 2022 black Bronco 2-door with a 7-speed, and I’d trade it for this one in a heartbeat. Ford has announced they’ll reassign some plant workers next year because Bronco sales dropped 10%. They’ve been offering rebates on some trims. Maybe more deals are coming. Don’t let the color stop you. It might grow on you.

I’ve been debating between this and ordering a 2025 in green, which I really like. The 2025 would have fewer features and cost around 55k, while this one has more for 53k. I don’t hate the gray, but I prefer green.

You could always save the money and go for a wrap.

Wraps can cost around 5k. It might be cheaper to wait for the color you want.

Wow, 5k? That’s pricey. I never realized it costs that much. It makes sense though—it must take serious skill to do a good wrap.

@Emory
Yeah, it’s niche work with not much competition, which keeps the prices high. Maybe it’s cheaper in some areas.

Have you checked Ford’s website for inventory? I found my Bronco by having the dealer do a trade with another dealership.

I looked but didn’t find anything.

It’s harder to find specific options like manuals in dealer stock. Ordering might be your best bet.

@Fifer
Yeah, this one checks all the boxes except the color. And the price makes it really tempting.

@Indy
Be cautious. Online prices can sometimes be misleading. Make sure to confirm that 53k is the actual price.

@Indy
This might be unpopular, but you could also look at the 2025 Wranglers. They’re switching to a new engine, which could be interesting.

I’m not into Jeeps. The ones I’ve been in rattle like crazy.

@Indy
Fair enough. Broncos are definitely better on the road. The old Jeep engines are pretty underpowered too.
