  1. Messed with the 2026 Build & Price… man the colors are boring

    Agreed! I love my Hot Pepper Red Sas, sorry to see it removed from the choices. Ford occasionally stumbles into cool colors, then sobers up and immediate reverts to bland and blander. Gotta Have It Green, Hula Blue, Calypso Coral, Rapid Red, Antimatter Blue... all great colors. Hell, I'd...
  2. What’s the ONE piece of advice you’d give to a new Bronco owner?

    Learn how to change your own oil! It's pretty easy on a Bronco, lots of video's on YouTube and as is true with every Turbocharged vehicle, clean, high quality engine oil and a clean filter every 5-6k miles is absolutely the key to a happy and long lasting engine. You'll spend a $100 or more at...
  3. Round Ditch Lights

    I love the look of the 6" or 7" round lights. Particularly partial to the old PIAA's with the integral rock guard in front of the lens.
  4. Tire question

    Yep. A Goodyear Territory. Ford asked GY to come up with a different name than "Wrangler" for the tire to avoid confusion with the Jeep model of the same name.
  5. Ford Bronco wins 2026 Residual (Resale) Value Award

    Exactly. Lightning and the GM EV trucks seem to hold value as a percentage of original MSRP better than the Tesla simply because they're more usable as trucks than the CT. CT is a fashion statement, Lightning or Silverado EV are pickup trucks first and EVs second.
  6. Ford Bronco wins 2026 Residual (Resale) Value Award

    These list typically take a look 3 years back or even longer. Previous generation Tundra with the V8 is more valuable than ever due to the new versions well documented issues. Improving resale of last generation lifts the declining resale of the new generation.
  7. Can't wait for the 60th Anniversary Bronze Wheels

    Looks like a bear to clean and those smaller gaps will pack with mud more easily.
  8. Potential Purchase - 2023 Wildtrak

    Some states, not all, require the dealer to register their used cars. So a new car that gets traded or sold back to a dealer would have at least two and sometimes more transactions if it was then resold to another dealer. This is also common with leased vehicles which sometimes get...
  9. 3Wliners floor mats - So Good!

    Looking into these. My '23 came with the Ford all-weather mats, they were fine for about 6 months but have started curling at the edges and no longer fit as well as when new. Hoping these are a longer lasting alternative.
  10. Towing 3,000+ lbs - Actual experience input requested

    Pulled a loaded 6x12 dual-axle U-Haul from Florida to Atlanta, about 3600 lbs. loaded with furniture. Mostly interstate up I-75. 4 door Sasquatch 2.7 with factory tow. No issues, just a bit of push when decelerating or braking, otherwise stable as a rock and plenty of power and torque. It...
  11. Is This Real???????

    Not loud on a Bronco... but a GT350 or GT500 with active exhaust is LOUD. I think they sound great, love the raspy note from the flat-plane crank and its firing intervals. But I can see how it could run afoul of noise laws.
  12. Tires, going big or just going Home?

    Look for the 285's that are on the lighter end of the weight spectrum. Avoid "E" load range rated tires as they are the heaviest and have the most rolling resistance which will ding both acceleration and gas mileage. A "C" load range 285 will have plenty of load capacity for a 4 cylinder...
  13. Ford Quality Control Problem

    My'23 Big Bend Sas has been absolutely perfect in 3 years and 23k miles. Buy, I've not allowed (or needed) anyone to touch it besides oil changes which I do myself. My son's '16 Focus ST1 had been perfect in 10 years and 100k miles, just brakes and battery's plus regular full syn oil changes...
  14. Dealership taking forever to close out recall work, is this normal?

    I have 5 open recalls on my '23, none of them important enough for me to trust the local Ford dealer to not make the issue 10x worse. I'll wait until I get to a market with a competent Ford dealer to make the reservation for the repairs. Ford really needs to drop the hammer on these...
  15. Why not? They used to be... kinda...

    We had two, a 3rd gen and a 5th gen. Took the fibergass roof off of both, totally changed the demeanor of the vehicle and super fun. The issue was when putting the top back on, the rattles and squeaks seemed to amplify every time the top was reinstalled. But I'd love another F-150 based...
  16. 2024 big bend dead battery

    My '23 Big Bend V6 just sat for 2 weeks in my garage. North Florida so temps are mild, in the mid-50s. The remote start via phone was disabled due to sitting for 2 weeks but I opened the door, pushed the button and it cranked perfectly and fired right up. If you're still under warranty I'd...
  17. Broncos and MICE.

    Peppermint works great to ward off Mice & Rats. Great idea with the Pill bottle!
  18. Washington Wildtrack OEM Painted/Gloss Black Grille - For Sale

    I'm interested! Was looking at aftermarket but prefer OEM. Not local however. Would you take $300 for it and ship it UPS to Florida?
  19. Lemon Law question

    I'm in Florida, we have a pretty clear and strong Lemon Law here. And I used it. My '14 Chrysler 300 John Varvatos was a beautiful car and I loved it. Driving the kids to school one morning, the instruments went berzerk, lights flashing, needles sweeping back and forth. Dropped the kids off...
  20. Ford Flex / Bronco’s Cousin?

    Flex was a fantastic vehicle, unfortunately it got lumped in with minivans instead of SUVs and suffered the same fate... not cool. A Flex with fender flares, two tone paint and a 2 inch lift with chunky but all-season tires would have been awesome and I'd bet a sales winner. Think Volvo XC...
