  1. What is your "ala carte" options wishlist?

    I believe you have to get the more expensive hard top to get the option for sound deadening.
  2. Big Bend Tires 33s?

    You do realize it comes with 32.6ā€ tires and you’d gain something like 0.6ā€ by going to the 33s?
  3. What is your "ala carte" options wishlist?

    This may sound crazy, but I’m hoping that this oddball comment in a video revealing a manual Sasquatch package means that Ford will make either a OBX- or mini Wildtrak trim that will allow for getting a manual with higher trims that allow for a high/lux package. Mostly I want this so I can get...
  4. Ally opp!!! Short people post!

    When I look at the Big Bend trim on Ford’s website & look under ā€œExteriorā€ I see an optional tube step: I don’t see it anywhere else but hopefully they’ll offer it as my family will need it, too.
  5. 4 door Bronco Family vehicle?

    Also family of 4 here. Kids are 9 & 12. They’re excited to ride in it & go car camping with it. They are kind of tired of hearing about it from me already, tho. ? I ran thru a few (cough) color combinations with my daughter, now she rolls her eyes when she hears ā€˜Bronco’ ? Pffft. Kids these...
  6. Today should be the day the interior packages are shown.

    I’m thinking I’ll do the same thing on Monday. But more to pick a different dealer.
  7. Today should be the day the interior packages are shown.

    Let’s see if I can get this correct. From left to right: Absolute Black, Carbonized Grey, Iconic Silver, Rapid Red, Oxford White, Antimatter Blue, Cactus Grey, Velocity Blue, Area 51, Race Red, Cyber Orange. How’d I do?
  8. Hesitant to Order Before Test Drive?

    Most important thing to keep in mind is that we are in hyper information mode while Ford is simply following through on their planned release of infos. So we are constantly front-running their planned drip-drip of info. Remember how there were instantly a ton of YouTube videos released when...
  9. 4x4 Class 101 (Saving Broncos from Permanent Mall Crawler Duty)

    Oh, I get the physics of it: i=mr^2 and all so the farther away from the center the mass is the effect is exponential. I’ve just never seen a display like that where you can see a few #s of tire mass have such an effect on a 2-3 ton vehicle. It’s kind of mind-blowing.
  10. 4x4 Class 101 (Saving Broncos from Permanent Mall Crawler Duty)

    Pretty amazing that 35ā€ tires needed 50% farther to stop than 33ā€ tires with no other changes to the vehicle. That gives me something to think about with the Sasquatch pkg. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Off roading with a manual transmission Bronco

    Honestly it’s easier to drive a truck with low gears than something like an 80’s Honda Civic which you need to rev like crazy to get moving. With the gobs of torque the 2.3L puts out at low revs we probably won’t need to be in exactly the right gear for the situation. Maybe we’ll be able to be...
  12. Rock rails usable as jack hardpoint?

    I’m hoping the frame will be stiff enough that when you raise the rear wheel the front wheel comes with it. Had a bunch of German cars like that & made life simpler.
  13. Possible group buy - Mich

    I h8te talking to dealers & have avoided them most of my life. So if anyone is able to find a good deal with a straight-talking dealer I’ll join in. I have x-plan but I’m nervous about ordering a desireable vehicle the dealer doesn’t have in stock & having them play games at time of delivery...
  14. Off roading with a manual transmission Bronco

    If this manual is anything like the manual in my last Escape then it’ll prefer shifting without any feathering at all. It wasn’t like a manual car where if you wanted a fast start you’d have to rev & drop. As a truck like trans it liked to be dropped into 1st gear at low rpms and then you’d...
  15. Getrag Transmission: German or Chinese?

    This I wholeheartedly agree with. As a new trans, wherever it’s assembled, could have issues. That’s just standard new car risk - which I’ve never had and does give me the heebie jeebies. As far as one country doing better than another at assembling things, I do remember the days of hearing how...
  16. I"m out...nawt

  17. Question regarding rear flip up glass.

    I hear you on not being too eager to be seen struggling to get a dozen long boards on top of a rack. But .. in the accessories reveal video where they showed the pull out table in the back of the 4DR they said that they explicitly designed it to handle standing on it to access the roof rack...
  18. Anyone else hoping that there will be a reveal of a fully electric Bronco? Or pretty much happy with the gas?

    Reminds me of: gas, grass, or *ss; no one rides for free ?
