Who stole my Bronco before I got it? haha
My manbase arrived. Threw some 265/75-16s on for now just to get the stock tires off. Going for 35x10.50-17s in a few months when I can round up wheels.

Eureka! Finally get my Bronco tonight! I thought I was going to be disappointed because I did not get the 35”. However, I could not be happier about the badlands upgraded rim/tire set-up. It looks great in person and I love the gray / black rings. SO HAPPY!! In addition, I love Auto Nation in Panama CIty! If you are looking for great dealer, Panama City Rocks! Ask for Andrew.

More pictures/ videos of my four-door Badlands with optional rims and tires. This will hopefully give you a good idea of the proportions and nice color scheme. I’m extremely happy with the 33 optional rims and tires!

So I've had my Velocity Blue Black Diamond for 5 days now and couldn't be happier with my order! Here's how my timeline went:
Reservation/deposit made: 7/13/20 @2000 CST
Reservation converted to an order: 1/23/21
Scheduled production week: 6/21/21
Re-scheduled production week: 7/5/21
Re-Re-scheduled producton week: 6/28/21
Blend Date: 7/2/21
Stay at Dirt Mountain: 7/2/21-ish until 10/10/21
Built Date: 10/10/21 with delivery ETA of 10/26/21-11/1/21
Shipped: 10/18/21 with new ETA of 10/30/21 - 11/5/21
Arrived at Shreveport railyard: 11/1/21
Arrived at Wray Ford: 11/5/21
My build info is in my signature, so I'll spare you guys that data. Here's the good stuff.
Wheels: American Racing AR172 in 17x8, 0 offset
Tires: BFG KO2s in 295/70R17
Stock ride height
The tires rubbed a little going forward at 90% lock, but rubbed a good bit in reverse at 60% lock. I removed the crash bars, so no more rub. I love how the wheels and tires completely change the look of it. I've always been a fan of this style wheel, especially after seeing it on some EBs. I'll have more modifications coming in the future, but my house's budget committee is about to meet and I'll have to restrain myself until I can save for future upgrades.
This thing is a blast to drive and I'm loving seeing it in the driveway each morning as I go to work. I've been driving a 2003 F-150 for a while now that's a basic as it gets (V6, manual locks, windows, 2WD). It's been a great reliable truck, but I'm happy to finally upgrade. First impressions are great so far. Road noise with the MIC is more than I imagined, but I've never owned a vehicle with a removable top of any kind before, so I had no baseline to compare it to. It's not bad, as I can have a normal volume conversation with my daughter in the backseat at 65mph. The 2.3L is perfectly adequate for this vehicle. It doesn't throw me in the back of my seat, although to be fair I'm still doing the break-in, but it doesn't feel sluggish. I think I'll put premium gas in my next tank and see if it feels any different. Ford says it produces more power with premium, but we'll see. A nice tune would really open this thing up, especially if it makes that boost available down low. The 7-speed is a lot of fun. I've had 3 vehicles since my last manual (2008 Mazdaspeed 3) and I'm so glad to get back to it. The clutch is well-balanced, not too light or heavy. I'd say it takes an appropriate amount of force to engage it.
The MGV is awesome. Love the feel and look of it. It seems to be very durable, but time will tell. The speakers do in fact suck in this vehicle. They sound thin and have next to no bass. My 2003 F-150's stock speakers sound way better and more full. I'll look to upgrade those first probably.
One thing I noticed when I took delivery is that there is already some honeycomb action going on with the MIC top. If that was the focus when Ford "fixed" the MIC, it's still an issue with MIC 2.0. I have a good bit on the driver side roof panel and some near the B-pillar on the passenger side. The dealership knows already so I'll monitor that situation. The only reason I think I have the MIC 2.0 is the delay after my blend date. I was "in production" for almost 3 months, so SURELY they were replacing my MIC with MIC 2.0, which didn't seem to fix the visual defect.
That's the only issue I've had so far *knocks on wood* and I look forward to driving this thing every day. I've gotten so many looks and compliments from random people. I had some Wrangler drivers give me the wave, but I of course ignored it. Looking forward to many many years in the Bronco family!

Alright. I spent hours making sure no one had this combo yet. I literally was on here, FB, IG and Reddit making sure lolol.
My VB is a black diamond 2 door 2.3L Manual.
Wheels are Raceline 17 inch Aero HD Matte Bronze
Tires are a 285/70R17 BFG K02.
I was kinda hesitant on the color because I didn't want to have to get a Vape like a WRX kid lol. It turned out better than I anticipated.
I'm on the short list for Fox's new 2.5 Performance Elites so that's in the works.
