New Owner in New Jersey!

[Dngvt]

Hi all, new to the Bronco world and lovin' my new 2024 Outer Banks! It's going to live close to the beach and spend tons of time without a roof. Now if I can only figure out how to deal with the front license plate. Maybe we keep that off too.....

Looking forward to learning a lot from this community!

Welcome! I installed this company's front license plate bracket for the mod bumper and it's a really nice solution.

The one for the standard bumper:

Slide one of these over the plate before mounting and it gives a nice, finished look:

It's an attractive solution for those of us that have to run them.

Welcome, Pizone, and congrats on the new ride, best of luck with her! What part of the shore ya from? Eatontown here.

As far as front plate, just put it in your car and throw it on your dash when you gotta pay paying meters. I drive around with tinted front windows and no front plate without an issue, and I'm driving everywhere with her

I got this Mabett bracket that fits the plastic bumper.

Welcome fellow NJian. My WT (2-door) also spends a lot of its time at the beach. I purchased the bracket to mount the license plate below the front bumper - similar to the ones posted on this thread.

Ya know what, hijacking with a quick question.

Is there any beach we can drive on here in Dirty Jerzy, or is that just in Florida and stuff?

There are, but many only allow it after the season ends (Labor Day - Memorial Day).

Island Beach State Park. Look up Sportfishing Permit. You'll be buying either a day or weekend pass as the annual passes sell out quick, which for 2024 meant they were sold out back in December.

Here's an old article with a list of the beaches.

I'm leaning towards this approach, but like the bracket that was also forwarded on this thread. If only we could get the state to pass the bill eliminating the needs for the front plate!

BTW, which beach are you near?

Pretty close to you! Rumson/Fair Haven area although I hate to admit that. Took my wife 30+ years to get me to move to where she was raised, even though it's a damn great place to live!

Long live Pete & Eldas!

I've been wondering where to go too, so thanks for asking!
