  1. Brake Lock Differential feature?

    This was a really interesting video in that the gladiator with locking diffs had the hardest time, mostly due to length and ground clearance. (???) The new defender they brought did not have locking diffs, but was shorter and did it much easier. I guess they brake the wheels and that forces them...
  2. Warning on Race Red color

    I had a shop put a clear coat of plastic paint protection on my raptor. The guy that owned the shop was upset that he quoted me so low. I only took it down one really super narrow trail and it left scratches in the plastic. The shop owner thinks he could get them out with a heat gun, but haven't...
  3. How many reservations has your dealer received?

    This is sort of the most honest dealer survey ever. Dealers who treat people right have tons of reservations, and sleazy ones won't.
  4. 2 door rear seats NOT removable

    They probably didn't spend the money to make them easily removable and reinstall-able like the doors as they assumed that if you removed them they would stay in your garage forever. But then again, maybe they had to weld the seat rails to the floor.
  5. Not a gear head so explain to me 2.3 vs 2.7 . . .

    While y'all are talking mileage and power, don't forget that the Sasquatch package with those big tires will impact things a lot. Even more if you get some heavier tires.
  6. What's with the manual trans hype?

    If you want the manual and more power, get this with a ford warranty: https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-REB I remember going up a hill on a quad. Couldn't down shift quick enough, stalled out, rolled backwards. RZR with cvt didn't have that problem. Last week driving on dirt road...
  7. Refusing “Mandatory” dealer add-ons?

    I believe a lot of dealers are going to get "stock" units by charging so many silly fees people walk away from their order. Then they can mark it up as much as they want. Refuse the charges, no vehicle for you. The last two dealers I've been to have said right up front, the doc fee is (high...
  8. No manual with 2.7L in 2021

    https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-REB $825, keeps factory warranty, 45 hp and 60 torque to the 4 cylinder ranger engine.
  9. Pics: Badlands Swaybar Reconnects at 20 MPH (Broncos Spotted Off-Road With Nomad Outfitters)

    I find the range estimate in vehicles is highly dependent on the last five minutes, so if you've been going slow it increases, and if you have been going fast it plunges.
  10. Speedometer correction with tuner / programmer?

    Yes, within limits. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9603-REB
  11. Bronco or Raptor?

    I have a 2011 Raptor and love it. It is super fast, has survived some holes that I didn't see until the last minute (water bottles are supposed to bounce off the ceiling right?), and can be used as a truck. I have not bought a jeep as no matter how much time I spend on a trail, I still have a...
  12. Pros / cons of a soft top versus hard top?

    I'm really hoping the modular hard top doesn't squeak and make wind noise. Trail driving is great but it always seems it's a long road trip to get there.
  13. Sasquatch tire life / mileage?

    I have a 2011 Raptor. I have probably bought 4-5 sets from Discount Tires. The latest seem heavier (worse mileage) but seem to balance better. So far at least.
  14. Delivery Reality

    I ordered a 6.2 raptor. Some guy had a link where you could follow the train car. Really was insanity. Just wait until they call and then go pick it up, and hope they don't tack on any stupid extras.
  15. Sasquatch tire life / mileage?

    I wore out a set of brand new KO2's off the rear of my raptor in about 4 hours. Guess I should have used four wheel drive. Very rocky road.
