  1. A fun Father's Day drive with Gold Country Broncos, with a little bit of damage along the way

    Gold Country Broncos went out for a Father's Day run this past Sunday - a great group of folks, including a Bronco Sport, 2 Braptors, and an F150. The Sport took a detour off the trail we were doing, prior to us getting to the more complicated obstacle, then they met back up with us after that...
  2. Broncos and Jeeps CAN get along!! 6X of each hit the trail together

    One of my good friends has a lifted JLU on 40's, and he runs a local Jeep group, while I co-lead a local Bronco group - so we combined forces for a fun drive last weekend. We started with 12 vehicles (6 of each).. midway through the trail, a couple of them turned around and went home because...
  3. opinions on off-brand Rotopax containers and mounts?

    I'm looking to add a Rotopax-style fuel container mount for some extra insurance on long trips- looking at Amazon, I see there are a number of other brands selling Rotopax-style containers and mounts at about 50% of the price of the Rotopax stuff... which is pretty significant. Has anyone used...

    Our club has officially 'adopted' one of the trails up in the mountains, which heads to Eagle Lake.

  5. Solo trip up to the hills this weekend

    Went out for a drive this weekend - ended up at about 6400' elevation, where I ran into a bit of snow (despite the fact that it's almost June) - it was a beautiful day for a drive - temps around 72 degrees (I think it was as low as mid 60's up at elevation). Played around with the Bronco app a...

  9. ZROADZ - 2 dead lights in 6 months and poor customer service, beware

    Initially I loved how my pocket lights looked, but now that 2 of the lights have stopped working, and ZROADZ is not much help, I'm regretting my purchase with them. buyer beware.
  10. One of the great things about being a Bronco owner isn't really even the Bronco itself.... but other owners and the community!

    It was an AMAZING day for a drive yesterday - I led a small drive back up to where my wife and I went last weekend, leading a couple newer Bronco owners (one Sport, and one Big Bend) on a VERY mellow trail to help them get their first off road experience and feel a little more comfortable with...
  11. tips to secure the soft top when it's in the folded back position?

    I have FINALLY been able to put the soft top back (it was 75 degrees today), but I notice that going over bumps and stuff on the trail, that the top bounced around when in the 'back' position.. I know it comes with the velcro straps, but I haven't figured out EXACTLY where to put them to help...
  12. Mabett rear speaker pods - totally worth it

    A while back I replaced all the speakers in the worthless B&O system with JL audio up front and Focal 4" in the back, along with the Stinger 12" tailgate mounted sub woofer, but there was a huge gap in sound because most of the speakers are 4", and then the huge 12" sub .. I needed more 'mid'...
  13. More fun with Broncos - 4 of us headed to the gravel pits/abandoned gold mines

    Went out with 3 guys from my local Bronco group (Gold Country Broncos) to play around at a HUGE 'playground' of abandoned gold mines and gravel pits - the rain was coming down pretty good throughout the day, but that didn't stop us from having a blast. As you can see, radios definitely help...
  14. EDIT - FINISHED! ... Another 4-door sleep platform DIY thread!

    Took some cues from several posts on here about how others including @UncleBuck have built a platform for the back, and leveled out the platform for good sleep area in the 4 door.. and today I dove in. I went to Home Depot and picked up a ½" thick sheet of plywood and had them make 2 cuts for...
  15. More play in the snow ... Gold Country Broncos

    Living in Sacramento, CA - I am fortunate to have relatively easy access to the mountains and all kinds of trails, about an hour to an hour and a half away from where I live.

  16. 7000 miles in 4 months.. .

    Today marks 4 months since I took delivery, and I will hit 7000 miles today - it's definitely NOT a garage queen! As some may know, it's a velocity blue 4 door Badlands Sasquatch with Lux package - I reserved it 7/20/20 and took delivery on 10/12/22 - 814 days. Before I even had a build date, I...

    This past Sunday - I met up with the local Bronco group for a drive up to the snow - well, we expected to be done by 2 or 3 pm.. we didn't finish the trail until almost 7:30pm..

  18. Fun New Years Day drive to Indian Valley Reservoir (CA)

    A few days before New Years Day weekend, I posted in a local Bronco Facebook group, that I was looking to get out of the house for a drive on NY day... but CA has been getting hammered with some rain/snow, so we couldn't go up to the Sierra's where we might normally go, and we had to be cautious...
  19. "Patches" - must be an off-road thing - what are you doing with them?

    I've been in a number of car genres over the decades, drag racing, muscle cars, autocross, road course cars, performance muscle cars, etc - and now that I'm into the off-roading thing, I'm finding that these velcro backed 'patches' are a thing - I know some people aren't a fan of the...
