I just passed on a 4 door full size... keeping FE...only 1999 of them left or less by now
The right thing to do . I have driven the other bronco and I must say not to bad but not overly impressed by the overall fit and finish . In my opinion not as finished as my first edition

I decided to keep the 22 Outer Banks. Main reasons:
1) I got it like I want (I’ll send pics when home)
2) I drive my car and not my wife’s when we go places as they get similar mpg. If I had one that got worse mileage, I’d probably drive hers more and no one wants that.
3) I don’t really off-road. But if I get the bug, I can trade later as I see first editions (or badlands) going for sale online.
4) both have unique features and neither was a must have over the other. I do think Ford missed the boat by not putting everything on the FE. (I still laugh it does not have basic things like garage door opener)
Agree with your decision. Comes down to what are your going to use it for. I'm 4 weeks & nearly 800 miles into my 22 OB. Has/does everything I need it to do. Only off road around me is beach and sandy trails, & I haven't been to either as yet.
I'm very happy with my OB and the 1.5L "Little engine that could" works fine for me.

Her are some pics of Eeyore … because he’s always a little blue (or at least Area 51?)

I have a FE and I wish it had the full 360+ cruise control. I switched my sun visor to have the garage door opener. I really like the power of the 2.0 but I only drove the 1.5 for one test drive.

I think all FEs have the towing package too. I also like the rubber floors for easy cleaning.

Mine has 5000 miles and still feels like new so it wasn't ridden hard it could be an okay deal.
Umm please teach me your ways. How does one swap out their visor for the garage door remote? I need it.

Personally I’d keep the OB. I love mine. It’s got tons of bells and whistles that I actually use and it gets great gas mileage.

As far as the FE becoming a “collectible“, I sincerely doubt it. Are there any other mass produced small SVU’s that have a special edition that is worth way more than any other edition? My guess is the FE will sell for a slight premium for a few years.
