  1. Anyone Off-Roaded With Pets? How Hard Is It Really?

    I have taken my tracking dog into some gnarly places in side by sides. He has a small crate that he fits in. I can strap the crate to the seat or in the bed of the vehicle. I don’t want a big crate with lots of room around him. The roomier the crate, the more he’d be slamming into the sides as...
  2. 2027 Bronco RTR revealed as part of 2027 model lineup

    Because the people buying this to race around on sand dunes in the desert definitely need adaptive cruise control and heated seats. Haha
  3. 2027 Bronco RTR revealed as part of 2027 model lineup

    I’ll reserve my final judgment until I see the price and all other details. But if Ford is trying to bring Wildtrak light performance to Base or Big Bend level trims and prices it in that $55k ish range with the Sasquatch and HOSS 3.0 I think it’s a cool idea. A 2026 Big Bend, Avalanche Gray...
  4. 2026 on Order, what can I expect?

    They replaced the 2.3 last year and that seemed to backup the MT broncos last year and cause the delays. But that backup seems to have ended. I saw a flood of MT dealer orders arrive by fall of 2025. And people ordering 2026 MT Broncos were given schedules in line with everyone else for early...
  5. Potential Purchase - 2023 Wildtrak

    Are you looking at 2 door or 4 door Broncos? I’ve seen a number of 2 door Broncos that are owned for a couple of weeks according to the Carfax report. That’s a big tax hit for a what’s essentially a rental.
  6. Farewell, Miss my Bronco

    You averaged 23 MPG in a V6 Basesquatch? Every used V6 Squatch 2 door I’ve looked at over the years showed 13.5 to 17.5 mpg on the dash. Ouch! If I traded in a V6 Squatch unicorn that got 23MPG, I’d be hurting too. I guess you can look at the bright side. You made the second buyer of your ā€˜22...
  7. Missed downshift = Scary situation in traffic 7MT

    Holy crap. Thanks for the enlightening videos. The videos do not match what I had previously envisioned had happened.
  8. Missed downshift = Scary situation in traffic 7MT

    Coasting to a stop in neutral, clutch in I’m assuming, the RPMs will be low to nonexistent. The light turned green, the vehicleā€˜s slow speed and snowy conditions call for a shift to 2nd, but the stick put it into 4th, so the engine naturally bogged down. After it bogged down, it wouldn’t do...
  9. Any dealerships offering deep discounts on Bronco Badlands?

    I do this all the time to see what’s out there which matches my desired specs. However, there isn’t jack for MT 2 door Broncos with a painted top and the front camera found in the Lux package. Granger had one in white at a great price but I couldn’t commit to the white on white. This morning...
  10. 2021 Big Bend 2.3L 7MT build —“BroncoNon”

    I think it looks good. I like unique Broncos that stand out and yours definitely does that. Any chance you tracked the weight from beginning to ā€endā€?
  11. Armadillo Designs Aluminum Hardtop

    I priced a 2 door Armadillo painted top with rear windows and it was $8000! $8000?!? For a top that leaks? No thanks. 30 years ago I paid a few hundred dollars for a truck topper that had windows and it never leaked. As Vince Lombardi said, ā€œWTH is going on out there?ā€ This aftermarket area...
  12. Best Roof Color for Velocity Blue Body?

    Any painted top would be better than the MIC. I would probably choose the Shadow Black because the matching body color painted tops don’t always perfectly match the color of the bodies themselves. For whatever reason, I frequently notice slight differences between the tops and the body.
  13. Third MIC hardtop in 3 years FAILS

    ^ This right here. ^ We need to stop buying MIC topped Broncos or flat out tell the dealer we’re offering $5000+ less than we otherwise would because we know we’ll have to spend that money on an aftermarket hard top down the line. I’ve mentioned my concern to salesman at multiple dealers. Not...
  14. Used car dealer lying about manual transmission?

    Iā€˜ll admit, I appreciated the ad. And you can’t order a Cactus Gray Big Bend anymore, so I guess they’re covered on their claim that you can’t order it. Maybe they changed the add, but when I looked it didn’t claim the Bronco had a 2.7l manual transmission. It only said manual transmission...
  15. Ford Quality Control Problem

    Carfax updates their records when a vehicle gets washed, but maybe they’re slow to record performed recalls. I don’t know. I’m a Ford fan. I just think they could do better.
  16. Ford Quality Control Problem

    Recalls are a big enough inconvenience to deal with that many people simply ignore the recalls or go to the extreme and trade in the vehicle and get a new one. I presently have one vehicle capable of hauling me and my kid around. A vehicle is a necessity for me. I can’t leave it at the dealer...
  17. Base w/ changing rims or big bend

    If you have 2 to 3 new MT Broncos sitting on lots in your area, consider yourself lucky. Haha. I think there’s only one or two in my entire state. If I buy one from a dealer’s stock, I’ll likely be flying there and driving it back. Also, prices are coming down for 2025 Broncos, and the higher...
  18. 2021 Badlands 2.3 MT TOP SPEED

    103. That’s good to know in case one makes the unfortunate decision to eat McDonald’s French fries before getting on the interstate.
  19. Where does everyone sell their Broncos when trading up?

    I used to trade my vehicles in, but in the last year things seem to have shifted where I’m at. Dealers are low balling badly, and places like Carvana easily make up for any trade-in tax savings. I keep my vehicles over 10 years, though.
