I've never been a brand loyal guy as I've owned nearly ever brand over the years save for a small handful of obscure brands or exotic. It's a total 180 for me but a 2025 Bronco Badlands w/manual transmission. I was always somewhat interested in a Bronco but the MIC top is #### and for 2025 painted MOD tops are now available. The Civic was a bridge car for me while I was getting a divorce but I just find the roads in Calgary now are in such bad shape I've grown tired of the paranoia of having to dodge every pothole and wheel repairs, etc. I've only really owned myself one SUV as my daily driver and that was an X3M Comp and while not my favorite vehicle ever, it was maybe the only one that I could drive and not worry about road conditions, parking blocks scraping front ends, etc so I figured I would try a vehicle type like that but a bit more extreme which is the Jeep/Bronco segment. My only reservation is Ford reliability/build quality is generally poor but I figured I would start my new single life on a different note and do things a little differently from the past and tick a different box on the vehicle ownership list. It may or may not work out but at least it's different.
