  1. Ultimate Black Diamond Non-Sasquatch pics thread

    This is what I’ve come to believe. I really want the bronco. I’m sitting back until B&P gets more accurate. Not even going to stress anymore. But if a 2014 f150 5.0 4x4 comes along in red or blue at a good price I’m jumping on that bad boy! Drove a 2009 5.4 4x4 and fell in love with the truck...
  2. Ultimate Black Diamond Non-Sasquatch pics thread

    To me the entire point of going up a trim from base model is to get mid package. It still stings to not be able to get manual with mid package. I’m not spending 40k to not have it with BD, I just can’t give up the chance for a manual. If I was getting a Ford F-150 v8 I wouldn’t mind not having a...
  3. 2.7l and 10 speed reliabilty, turbos shot at 40k

    I would love to have the twin turbo, but I plan on keeping my bronco long term. For all my mechanic brothers we know what it takes to replace those turbos. But it’ll definitely be a hell of a lot of fun before they go out. Just drove a Ford F-150 2.7 and my god it had me almost forking out the...
  4. Black Diamond Wheels look so good...

    I love the way they look. I think the BD is a great price if you don’t want Sasquatch but want more gear and MGV seats.
  5. If I'm getting auto with 2.3L,might as well get V6 for $250?

    The 2.7 to me is a better engine than the 2.3. I’ve had 2.3 engines that have failed in mustangs, especially kid owned mustangs who don’t take care of them. I would love to have a 2.7 IF I had the money to always have some one else work on it. It’s mustang 4.6 SOHC vs 4.6 DOHC all over again...

  7. If I'm getting auto with 2.3L,might as well get V6 for $250?

    The 2.7 isn’t trash, it’s just a technicians worst nightmare for replacing turbos. That’s my only hang up on it, I will do my own work once warranty is up. Look up rangers with tunes and performance parts, they are getting above 300rwhp. My 2000 Nissan Frontier 4x4 only has 175hp and I think...
  8. Ranger lift on bronco?

    I’ve never looked into the ranger ?. I don’t want another truck. I always thought the bronco was based on the current ranger.
  9. Ranger lift on bronco?

    Well aftermarket should be able to release something very soon if the ranger and bronco will be the same. Fingers crossed for something big.
  10. Ranger lift on bronco?

    Didn’t know that. I hope aftermarket catches up quick, the ranger looks amazing with the 6 inch lift. I’d pay extra to get the axles to make a 6 inch lift work.
  11. Ranger lift on bronco?

    Think it’ll work? Isn’t the bronco frame and suspension based on the rangers? Just wondering because the rangers have a 6 inch lift kit, even if it’s not exactly the same I would imagine it wouldn’t take long before bronco got that 6 inch lift kit.
  12. Bronco 2.7 v6 and 10 speed auto - dependability and reliability?

    So far I haven’t replaced any 2.7L engines or 10 speed transmissions. I have replaced the turbos though, if you neglect the oil changes or use cheap oil it will clog the oil feed lines and the turbos will fail. I absolutely hate replacing those turbos. That’s the only major reliability problem I...
  13. Second thoughts on MGV

    I had just posted about MGV in another thread. I don’t think it’ll be worse but better than my black leather seats in my black car. I live in the high desert CA, it’s normally 90’s and for a couple months it’s 110’s. With my sun shade up i never notice my seats being too hot, my seats don’t get...
  14. Why Base is best

    I keep hearing mgv will be hot in summer time but do we actually know this? I have a black car with black leather seats, as long as I leave my sun shade up it’s not really a problem. I don’t even notice it, I can’t remember if I ever did notice it even when I first got my car. For the record I...
  15. Bimini Top advantage over solid top?

    Mesh let’s in more light but not full on light exposure with out a top on. That’s it really. Just preference on what you want.
