What is it about the Bronco that makes you miss your jeeps? Just curious.

Articulation should be better on the jeep but.....
My jeeps were built. My

I missed em because they were built and my bronco isn’t. I had to turn around at a couple of my favorite spots.

How do you like it? Been on the fence about getting one
so far I'm really liking it, the height feels great and the short throw feels crisp. I thought I was going to need a couple days to get used to it, nope, felt right immediately

Then "build" the Bronco. Do you think they would be comparable then? What would you have to do to the Bronco to make it comparable?

2 more fun ones -- I think one or both are available on Etsy, or you can make your own if you or someone you know has a Cricut.

I've seen the top one as a spare cover...mom sent me a Pic of one in the wild in the Houston area.

I suspect one will be wrapped for my birthday in a few months. We both have a habit of giving each other cheesy gifts since we already get what we need and it's better than just giving Presidential portraits in paper form...

Nope, those rock crawling trail runs are in my past. That can be a perpetual cycle of chasing down the next weakest link. Even when you do find your build/use sweet spot - that sport requires a certain amount of wrenching that I lost interest in.

Both platforms can be built mild to wild. Bronco excels as daily driver refinement which makes sense for most. At some point if the build starts to prioritize crawling capabilities, it seems the Jeep platform would make more sense.

I understand. I disagree with the Jeep making more sense as a crawler.... but I understand not wanting to chase that anymore.... A real crawler is the rock buggy.... Not where I want to go either.

Ford Performance manual cover. Not a big deal, but goes with the theme I’m chasing…

I got a FB marketplace steal on new in the unopened box tube doors that I more than likely will never unbox. I’d love to put them on, but I have to be honest.

I’ve only had it for a couple weeks but the Green Machine used 4WD for the first time getting me to work today. Handle the snow and ice better than anything I’ve ever owned. I love this thing.
Slippery mode or straight 4wd? I have been impressed at slippery mode, something I use when the family is in the truck and I don't want risk. Now other times when I want to have some fun I sometimes mess around with TC off, 2wd and rear locked ha.

Normal, growing up on a farm I got used to sliding and floating around on gravel and iced roads at excessive speeds so Im comfortable testing limits of stability systems, out of curiosity, and learning charachtersitics.

I never even used rain / snow mode in Mustang much was too intrusive and not muche benefit.... I prefer some tire digging usually aim the tireds beyween the tracks to pick up pebbles in treads. TC off is great for deep snapw etc when need exta digging. Dont hot dog much like you haha.
