BB 24hr Test Drive...Any questions?

[zfischer]

What's it like to do a high speed reverse 180 with TTA on?

I keed, I keed. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'll stay tuned for your summary at the end.

Yes, it’s leather. It doesn’t really ‘feel’ like leather but it’s nice enough. Not sticky but not slick.



It’s leather.

Really? I'm not very familiar w/ the BB options...certainly doesn't feel like leather, at least leather I'm used to I guess.

I think you may be one of the first to give your impressions on a 2.3 four door squatched. I also have reservations about my decision to go with the 2.3 with this combo. Thank you so much for your good impressions! I feel better now! Did u get any mpg readings while cruising on the highway?

I agree with the OP, this combo drives fantastic.

Yeah, it’s cheap lol. But Ford calls it leather Only the base doesn’t have the leather wrapped wheel.

Like I said, I was really surprised...you won't be disappointed. I've only had a chance to do a short trip on the highway and was pretty much putting it through it's paces. Around town the MPG was showing 17.1

I made a similar post about my dealer's BB 2.3L Sasquatch I drove a couple days ago. I ordered a 2.7L, but after driving the 2.3L automatic, I can honestly say that I would be happy and able to live with the 2.3L no problem. I did NOT feel this way before driving the vehicle. Also agree that the ride quality with Sasquatch was very quite nice.

Agreed my test drive of a 2.3L squatch BB convinced me to buy 2 Broncos.

My only question is how did you get a 24 hour test drive?

The more stuff like this I see the more I realize how bad my dealer sucks.

Seems to be dealer specific. I test drove a WT Monday for 15min or so. Then they placed me on a list that they are placing all reservations on, order based on res time stamp, for a 2 day loan. I did not even ask as I assumed this was not even a thing a dealer would entertain.
IMO thats above and beyond my expectations and is awesome bc, while not my build, I will def get an idea of how happy I will/wont be when mine is ready.

I hear ya. This BB isn't close to my build but I'm in a much better place now that I have driven one, ton of questions answered.

Lol, my salesperson told the sales mgr I was taking it for 1 1/2 hours Andy he freaked! When I got back she told me an email went out to the sales staff that only 15 minute rides were allowed. Great ride....can't wait for mine! I agree, the color was better than expected but still want my Cyber!!!!

Welcome! I figured the videos might be useful, it demonstrates how quick the 2.3 can be. It’s a fun engine.

Is the water fording limit really 33.4”, or can it go deeper?
