I've named pretty much every car I've had.
In high school my jetta was the Battlestar Jettalactica. My Xterra was Mr Meseeks. My Bronco is Bebop. The audio installer even put a little Easter egg in for me:
Both here! Got mine end of January and have hit 7 trails with it so far, and 2 decently long road trips to the western slope of CO, and devil's tower, from Denver.
I WFH so not a lot of driving to work 😅
I did manage to already take some drain damage thanks to a series of unfortunate...
Man I'm so glad you wound up loving it! I'm definitely sneaking a listen in on the next trail ride we're both on 👀
For anyone else wondering, I had my base system upgraded by the same shop back in February and came in at about $2500, which covered swapping the dash and kick panel speakers out...
Someone else has posted about retaining soft top functionality with a rack, just want to add a +1 to that. Even a half rack that didn't span the entire length of the roof and was over the cargo area and some of the backseat that still allowed the top to open to position 1 would be my dream and...
I got the hood deflector put on within a week of taking delivery - so in the winter - and at 4500 miles not a chip or crack to be seen so far. It's been up and back I-70 in CO multiple times and we drove from Denver to Devil's Tower without anything hitting so far. There have been a few clinks...
4500 miles in and the 1st to 2nd shift isn't clunky all the time anymore and I've found that the way I grab and pull the shifter is making a difference on it not happening as much - ie my hand is making more of a 90 degree angle with the side of the shifter and I'm pulling it straight back, vs...
@JcrOffroad will that support beam that runs perpendicular to the roof be able to support an attic storage net over the backseat if the other anchor points for it were on the roll bars? Would love something like that to stash coats, tarps, other light stuff for trips in addition to using the...
So you should have the clutch in when you've got the brake applied and you're at a full stop, right?
Next you gently let up off the clutch until you see your RPMs tick up just a little bit. The computer is actually giving some bonus throttle juice in the background and compensating. This is the...
This looks sweet. My husband and I are always battling for storage space for knick knacks and this would definitely help, plus it looks like you'd be able to use some of the support for some attic storage solutions over the backseat, which is the last piece of the puzzle we're trying to figure...
This, I've found that a combination of using the brakes as I'm downshifting is doing the trick. I never downshifted in my '96 Jetta I drove in high school and college, would just throw it into neutral and let it coast, which my dad was constantly on my case about, so trying to be better with my...
Did you change the tire size in the computer or whatever? I've also got a non-sas BL manual I'm considering doing this to and am curious about thr MPG impact before I pull the trigger on it
If it was I'd be observing the dress code and the top would be down 🥁
I don't think I dash through the snow gracefully enough to qualify given the last (accidental) snow wheeling adventure caused some body damage to my sleigh 😅
It's me, I'm the wild Bronco - and way too chuffed at this. I was waiting for my parents to show up at our favorite bowling alley for my birthday back in March and saw one of the camera cars drive by. Anytime I've had to use Maps on a computer I've gone to check if they used everything they...
