  1. No Broncos scheduled this week.

    They were clearly shopping in the wrong segment for their needs anyways if they can so easily switch from an SUV to a crossover like it’s no big deal.
  2. First Fuel Economy Numbers Seen on Window Sticker = 16.9 MPG (converted) for Sasquatch Badlands 4-Door Bronco 2.7L

    For a $25k+ difference to have more engine and similar sized tires and equipment I would make the jump without a 2nd thought. Im glad our prices aren’t that insane.
  3. First Fuel Economy Numbers Seen on Window Sticker = 16.9 MPG (converted) for Sasquatch Badlands 4-Door Bronco 2.7L

    Maybe not now, before prices on all vehicles sky rocketed you could scratch below $50k on a. XLT.
  4. First Fuel Economy Numbers Seen on Window Sticker = 16.9 MPG (converted) for Sasquatch Badlands 4-Door Bronco 2.7L

    I realize that’s in CAD, but that would make me sick to my stomach knowing an V8 F250 Tremor can be had for under $50k
  5. No Broncos scheduled this week.

    That sounds impressive, I want to see one in person now. Just can’t imagine how they would be thin.
  6. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    It IS possible, but as I mentioned highly inefficient and wasteful. I understand why aftermarket does it, since those vehicles weren’t designed for that. It’s just highly inefficient for a new vehicle manufacturer to convert to mechanical power and then send that through a drivetrain vs...
  7. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    I may be in the minority but I greatly preferred the pre-facelift model S, I don’t like the sparse front bumper of the Tesla lineup.
  8. No Broncos scheduled this week.

    I’m curious how much difference that will make, we’re at the point now where most modern vehicles are pretty damn safe, the biggest risks are long term injuries from getting catapulted around when a larger vehicle is involved. Which may be where that would be helpful.
  9. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    Im sure with time they get better, personally for me if a V8 is unavailable I would rather go EV than 4/6 cylinder. I hope EVs can one day close the gap, leave us the better ICE vehicles while taking up the slack and replacing the less desirable powertrains. Then again I would also prefer if...
  10. No Broncos scheduled this week.

    What the hell is an inflatable seatbelt, sounds clunky and expensive to replace.
  11. 2023 Ranger Raptor 3.0L EB V6 Confirmed - Hello Warthog!

    The warthog is built on the same platform with the same engine bay(and occupancy area), only difference is the body sheet metal changes.
  12. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    Of the S and X yes, I hadn’t seen the data for the 3 obviously.
  13. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    I’ve seen that exact same post made since the 1990s on the internet. EV owners have a 25% chance of switching back to gas powered vehicles which is better than I would have thought but seems to hint they’re not for everyone. Non-Tesla EVs also have very low take rates, and even Tesla sales have...
  14. Electric Bronco EV hinted by CEO Farley

    The drivetrain of the Bronco and a potential EV version does not seem compatible, you don’t just hook a motor up in place of an engine/trans, no sense in sending power through two axles as that causes losses in efficiency that are vital when building such a vehicle. To that end you end up with...
  15. Locking fuel door

    Hardly any different than someone just walking up and setting your house on fire, there’s nothing stopping them. I didn’t think people still siphoned fuel, seems like a 20th century issue. No ones going to siphon out $50 of fuel($40 if it’s a 2 door with a full tank), and I have to imagine the...
  16. Size / height of Bronco Wildtrak 4-door compared to Jeep Grand Cherokee

    It’s not an SUV as it does not have a ladder frame. It’s an old Mercedes unibody platform - I suppose minivan would be more apt, and no it’s a pretty limited platform as are all traditional IRS unibodies. Good for what it is? Perhaps, but that’s a very weak praise. The old Cherokee/GC with...
  17. SPOTTED: Antimatter Blue Base Sasquatch 4 Door at MAP today

    At this point I imagine most being built are being built to crash for testing results. This might be one ā˜¹ļø
  18. Size / height of Bronco Wildtrak 4-door compared to Jeep Grand Cherokee

    Auto 4wd is reactive, All wheel drive is proactive. Essentially an auto 4wd is 2wd until it detects slip at which time is locks in traditional 4x4 for a time before unlocking. All wheel drive is always sending power to all 4 wheels, the best way to tell the difference is in snow. If you floor a...
  19. In-person thoughts from a fence-sitter & outdoorsman

    Don’t threaten me with a good time. No honestly a semi HD full-size would be perfect, kinda like an H2 that has the 2,200lb payload capacity, you never feel like the payload is going to run out.
