‘23 Black Diamond 2.7 non-SAS 2-door here. No real problems whatsoever after a few road trips and daily driving. The 10speed works well (used to it from my F-150). Apple CarPlay used to have issues intermittently, but that seemed to go away on its own whether through a SYNC update, iOS update...
I traded in my F-150 for my Bronco but don't necessarily think of it as a sacrifice. The F-150 was an amazing vehicle and really fit the needs of my wife and me when we had it. It was a fun vehicle with a good amount of utility. However, we've always wanted a Bronco and really do enjoy the...
I tend to agree. My wife's Honda Accord is key fob and push button similar to the Bronco. My key never leaves my pocket while driving. The doors unlock when I grab the handle and the push button works flawlessly. When exiting, I just hit the little lock area on the door handle and nod with...
First photo was in my driveway. I was beyond excited to finally have the Bronco I wanted. Second photo is as I go down the fun journey of growing my Bronco with all the OEM accessories and aftermarket. Just the beginning of the journey since only about a month in between.
Minor upgrades so...
Thanks, and sure thing! Here's a few more shots. Forgive the crappy garage shots. It's storming currently and not a whole lot of room with two vehicles. I also included a front angle shot from the beach that may help.
I did not add a leveling kit. I also did not remove the crash bars and...
My wife and I had an amazing time at Christmas in July 2024 celebrating and contributing to a great cause!
From meeting at Buccee’s in Volusia and convoying up to Winn Dixie and meeting with JAX Broncos and Old City Broncos before hitting the beach at A Street… it was all amazing. Good...
I decided to keep the stock non-SAS Black Diamond wheels and went with 285/75/17 Toyo Open Country AT3s (C load range) after reading many threads on here regarding that size. Fits perfectly and rides so much better than the General Grabbers. Those General Grabbers lasted all of 800 miles before...
My wife and I always get ceramic tint installed shortly after purchasing a vehicle. I did 30% on the front doors and 50% on the dyed privacy glass of the hardtop. Definitely can feel the difference here in FL.
I didn’t do the windshield but also never have with prior vehicles.
I haven't noticed anything unusual with my 2023 Black Diamond with the 2.7. Although, I also came from a 2020 F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost and 10speed. I initially thought the F-150 was a little rough when I first bought it, but that feeling went away over time. Nothing stood out when switching...
Knocking out some necessities since it’s brand new. Ceramic tint (30% on front and 50% on the rear dyed privacy glass), dash cam connected with the Dongar autodimming mirror adapter, and Mountains2Metal front door pockets for every day carry on the driver side and whatever on the passenger.
🤷♂️ I have my recurring setup for software updates and got the notification it had updated to 6.1.0.
I had to reconnect it to WiFi and reenable ambient lighting. Everything else worked fine though including Apple CarPlay. Dunno what the actual update did, but no issues to report. Ambient...
Rearranged my garage, got rid of some ancient cabinets, and was able to get the Bronco in the garage alongside my wife’s Accord.
That has always been something that irked me while owning my F-150 since it was never a possibility. But here we are. 😀
I'm digging the GUI on the new version. It's just prettier to look at. Some things require a couple more taps, but overall it seems snappy and still has the details I need. Used the FordPass app for a long time with my F-150 and always thought it just looked old even if it was a bit simpler to...
