  1. What do you pay for insurance ?

    For how much coverage? The term "full coverage" doesn't really mean you are fully covered. What's your driving record? Bundled with other policies? How many drivers and ages? Road side assistance? Rental? Uninsured and underinsured? PIP? Deductibles? What state? A company that will actually pay...
  2. Camping chair recommendations

    I'm not into hauling half the house around and get by on less. I'm also not interested in lounging around for long periods of time. The camp chairs that stay in the Bronco are the smaller tripod style like this: Cabela's Comfort Max Tripod Blind Chair | Cabela's (cabelas.com) I've got an...
  3. New Falken AT4W 35/11.5 17 tires

    I have 35x11.50s on Icons and am happy with the ride. Not really happy with their corrosion resistance but maybe that’s better. On and off road have been great.
  4. Ford Performance Rear Differential Cover Installed Impressions

    Don’t think so, but there’s plenty already. Easy drain/fill is a huge advantage. BTW, Lucas 75-140 for all my rear diffs. I care more about the gears than the mpg.
  5. 6th gear worthless?

    Yep, low RPM means more boost and MORE fuel, which kinda goes against traditional thinking. Driving the 2.3 ecoboost like it's a V8 is not the ideal way.
  6. 6th gear worthless?

    Yep I use 2500-2800 as my goal regardless of whether I'm driving 45 or 75.. Might go under or over for short periods, but most of my cruising is in that range. The lowest boost and best mpg.
  7. 6th gear worthless?

    For an exercise in driving the 2.3 eco, turn on your boost gage and try driving in the sweet spot where boost mostly goes away. Then see what that RPM is. That's where the engine wants to cruise.
  8. 6th gear worthless?

    Been discussed many times. Drive a MT to a RPM range and don't worry about what gear that is. That's the beauty of a manual. A copy of the 2.3L dyno should come with it so people will stop lugging the engine. Tire size, gearing, blah, blah, blah. Drive to a desired RPM range. Stop worrying...
  9. New Driver Alert Warning Rest Suggested - drink coffee icon

    I work nights. My internal clock says it's always time for a cup of coffee. 6-8 cups a day, every day. Sometimes more, a lot more. That should be my permanent display.
  10. Newbie-ish from Arkansas

    Hmmm. Most recent trip together. Shouldn't you be going up the interstate. No. I think you should be going up the interstate. I'm not. Four hours of quiet after that.
  11. Oil Change with Most Predictable Results

    I’m just not as busy as some of you. Benefits of being one of the old guys.
  12. Ford performance severe steering rack on a NON SAS 4 Dr

    Definitely reach out to him if the dealer tech has any issue. He programmed mine last year.
  13. Ford performance severe steering rack on a NON SAS 4 Dr

    The racks work on any Bronco. The programming is the key. You might want to hit up mpeugeot with what that will require for your specific setup so you know more than the Ford dealership you'll take it to.
  14. Black Diamond takeoff’s

    I threw mine in the dumpster with 30 miles on them. It was the best offer.
  15. Cell signal booster or GMRS radios

    I have both WeBoost and GMRS and would recommend satellite communication as well depending on where you spend a lot of your time. The WeBoost has it's limits, as you still need a signal. What I find is that it boosts the signal to get a call out when only text go out without it, or to maintain...
