  1. Tips? N Arizona, NM, CO road trip

    If you ever watched John Wayne in True Grit then Owl Creek pass takes you by the meadow where they had the shoot out. The True Grit restaurant in Ridgway is cool. The lifts/gondolas in Telluride are free and pet friendly. But the parking in Telluride sucks big time.

    If get time get a frosted mug of root beer at A&W map
  3. Tips? N Arizona, NM, CO road trip

    Agree. Maybe consider Owl Creek pass or Last Dollar road. Chance they could be open. Too early for much else. Black Canyon of the Gunnison park was closed due to fire. Not sure if and when it re-opens. Million Dollar Hwy Red Mountain pass could even be iffy. Soak in the Ouray Hot Springs...
  4. Trail Turn Assist - who finds it useful?

    Use it on trails on tight turns when I think it will help in our Braptor. No issues.
  5. Towing 3,000+ lbs - Actual experience input requested

    On our Braptor when I hook up the trailer lights it suggests tow mode for goat. Usually put it there.
  6. Towing 3,000+ lbs - Actual experience input requested

    MPG 17+??? what the ??? We tow a Kawasaki mule on a 12' aluminum trailer with our Braptor and the MPG goes from 16 down to 10. I can fill up after towing for a while and after filling it will say 188 miles to empty.
  7. Need some thoughts on a paint striping I'd like to do.

    What does it look like with the top pin stripe in the top pic included on the 2nd pic?
  8. Windows stopped partially rolling down (when opening doors)

    Did the reset on mine. It now works again. Lower window while not releasing the button. Keep holding the button after it gets to the bottom for at least 5 seconds. Repeat this procedure going up. Do this twice and it fixed mine.
  9. Have you had Rear Camera Image recall fixed yet? Safety Recall Notice 23S48 / NHTSA Recall 25V273 / 25V273000

    Local dealer did mine yesterday. It was blacking out about 20% of the time before. The main delay is the parts. For me they used parts ordered for another Bronco that was there but it was waiting for other parts beside the camera recall. Otherwise it would have been a couple of days for my...
  10. Octane in 2.7 EcoBoost V6

    I use 87 or higher in our Braptor. Doesn't it give the octane specs when you open the fuel door? In Texas regular is usually 87. In Colorado it's lower. Like 85 so have to go to at least mid. I'd go with the best you can afford.
  11. Anyone have experience with Exoshield Ultra Windshield Protection Film?

    The dealer put some kind of film on mine. You can tell the wipers scratch it and there is a glare. I've had 2 bad cracks. It came with windshield insurance that turned out to be worthless as they don't cover a large crack. Just small ones that I suppose can be filled.
  12. Bronco Raptor Stop Sale 25S49/25V315 (backup camera recall)

    Ordered and paid for a Kawi ATV a little over a year ago then a safety recall hit them and it took about 2-3 months ti finally be able to pick it up. It just sat at the dealer. Ended up getting $500 credit to use for Kawi parts/service. We have seen the backup cmaera fail on at least 3...

    Per Google The Million Dollar Highway, a 25-mile stretch of US Route 550 between Silverton and Ouray, Colorado, has an average of 7 deaths and 40 accidents per year. This stretch is known for its scenic views, hairpin turns, and lack of guardrails, contributing to its reputation as a dangerous road.
