  1. Waited 654 days to get her...only to have her taken away by someone else's inability to drive 3 weeks later

    Driving 75MPH down a 2 lane highway after dark, a deer appeared on the side of the road and started to cross. I thought I could clear him by swerving, since he wasn't moving very fast. I thought I was by her when I felt and heard a big thump. When I was able to pull over after a couple miles...
  2. Lifting 2 door hardtop with power winch - how to balance top?

    I have installed a small power winch in the ceiling of my garage in order to easily remove my 2 door hard top. I put a strap on each side of the top from front to back. When I lift the top, if it is not perfectly balanced the straps slide a bit, making the top tilt upwards or downwards on the...

    6/27 blend date, 7/2 ship date. ETA has been pushed all over. Yesterday it was 8/6-8/11. I called Bob Utter. They told me they had one spreadsheet showing 8/11 and another showing 8/19.

    Happy Birthday to my Bronco. It is one month old today. Unfortunately, it is no closer to being home than it was a month ago. Ford has no shipping information as of yesterday. Shipping estimate 7/26 - 8/1. Ford tells me that is still the estimated date. We had ice mountain, then dirt...
  11. [SHUT DOWN] 🔎 Bronco Ordertrack App -- Thank you!

    Does anyone know if the ordertracker.app developed andlrso automatically updates with the rail and convey information. I'm guessing it doesn't, seeing that everyone is calling ford. Even if it doesn't, I still like the app

    7/26 - 8/1 estimated delivery. As of yesterday, Ford told me they had no rail car information.
  14. Off-Rodeo Failure: No Manual Broncos Available

    They had both 2 doors and MT when I did the event in Austin’ about a year ago. I was able to drive both the 2D and the 4D. I can imagine they had issues with people tearing up the clutch on the MT. They only have so many broncos and having some out of service would be both expensive and a...
  15. Vehicle Semiconductor Chips 101

    The biggest semiconductor manufacturer in the world is actually TSMC in Taiwan. But, they are only a manufacturing company. Fabs cost billions of dollars, so very few companies can build their own factories. Smaller companies design the chips and contract TSMC to build them. The chips that...
