  1. Antimatter Blue Thread

    The top Xpel is what we have. I would have also considered the top 3M film. Our (*very* good) installer leans toward the Xpel, so we went that way, without regret. I also power wash, use the two-bucket method with grit grates, and multiple towel changes. That said, for the first time ever...
  2. Getrag 7 speed manual built in China

    I like and respect your point of view. However, JFK was not a rock-crawler, and like me would probably have liked to have clutch management taken out of the equation when first starting noob off-roading 101. ;)
  3. Antimatter Blue Thread

    We are going AMB, but I generally *really* dislike dark colors due to the swirls. The last three cars we've had top-end PPF installed in various amounts (front clip on the F-150, front clip and some of the sides on the Mustang, total coverage on the Z06). We will do the front clip and the full...
  4. ? Bronco WildTrak Area 51 w/ Soft Top

    +1 -- if Wurth is available, I'll take it every time.
  5. Badlands Options

    There's now at least a dozen threads that will come up in a search on "GVWR." TLDR version: The vehicle's load rating "just happens" to correspond to how close its weight comes to the 6000 lb. GVWR limit before crossing into the next light truck weight class, with different vehicle...
  6. Getrag 7 speed manual built in China

    I have a 2019 Mustang GT with an MT82. I'm not going to be one of those "but mine is great" kind of people. Instead, I want to post what I believe are the two primary issues, and why I'm good with having a later MT-82: (i) early units had parts that were not good enough; (ii) Ford's moving...
  7. Getrag 7 speed manual built in China

    Corrected. Good luck finding *any* vehicle without significant foreign part content -- and it's been that way for at least the last three decades. Welcome to the global economy. Despite all the flag-waving, the mere use of "foreign" parts hasn't had any significant impact on quality or...
  8. 2021 Bronco Nuts n Bolts: Metric or SAE?

    Ford long ago went to metric for essentially everything.
  9. Is this 2-door OBX Squatch AMB or Shadow Black?

    Thanks! I'm surprised, but happy to be corrected when facts appear.
  10. Is this 2-door OBX Squatch AMB or Shadow Black?

    Respectfully disagree -- I believe you are seeing the sun's effect in the clear coat in the black paint (and if there's metal flakes in the paint, that too). AMB is certainly dark (to the point of being black without strong light), but *if* there's strong light, the blue metal flakes *really*...
  11. Is this 2-door OBX Squatch AMB or Shadow Black?

    My guess is Black - with that lighting, there would be tinges of blue at the highlight areas.
  12. Configuration: Aux Switches and Accessory Rail

    Thank you for posting this -- it is precisely what I was about to say. I'll edit my post to refer to this one.
  13. What's this button on the steering wheel do?

    I believe it has -- we appreciate its presence in our 2018 F-150 and 2019 Mustang.
  14. Granger Ford - to our current reservation holders

    While I was reading this thread, the e-mail hit my mailbox.
  15. Bronco Soft Top how-to video -- folding, removing and window removal

    My wife the cat veterinarian will be over soon with some, um, "tools of persuasion." :eek::ROFLMAO:
  16. Granger Ford - to our current reservation holders

    I never let my boxes get that full -- so many people I never want to interact with!
  17. Will the 4.7 final drive ratio kill MPG and TOP end speed for use as practical daily driver?

    In my Badlands, I expect to lose 10 mpg with my wife's right foot.
  18. Bronco Soft Top how-to video -- folding, removing and window removal

    IMO, given the way "trucks" like F-150s have been luxed out, they're all "cars." Alternatively stated, to me if the vehicle doesn't have a truck Class rating (e.g., Class 8), it's a four-wheel car, regardless of how "tough" the body looks.
  19. Bronco Soft Top how-to video -- folding, removing and window removal

    I'm in "the soft top design is ok" camp. Only thing I am looking forward to is the aftermarket coming up with some sort of replacement for the rear window section that will provide a flip-up window like on the hard-tops -- ideally a replacement that uses the OE soft top's upper and side...
  20. Configuration: Aux Switches and Accessory Rail

    (i) open the remote's case (ii) solder wires to the terminals on both sides of the momentary microswitch that is depressed when you push the opener's button (iii) run the wires to the aux switch of choice (iv) stash the reassembled remote somewhere on the vehicle where it's out of the way...
