It makes the Bronco look āfinishedā you donāt realize how much of an eye sore it is until you install the armor & then itās like āWow! Itās so much better!ā
You have to remove the running boards to install. You take out 6 13MM Bolts (each side) to remove them. Itās simple other than that. There is a screw by the rear tire fender trim you have to remove and then screw threw the trail armor back into place. That was the only part that was challenging...
Did my first āRoad Tripā in the Warthog (naming my bronco this since Ford didnāt use it & my fondness of Halo)
~130 Miles / 95% Interstate driving:
ā¢I got around 20 MPG. Average speed was 75 mph. I only use the Adaptive Cruise Control. I will not drive distance without it.
ā¢it handles the...
@ADV Fiberglass Not sure if youāre already aware of these differences, but something to consider since most of your customers will be Soft-Top Broncos
I got mine within $100 of Flood. The finance guy told me the system physically wouldnāt let him take off the $100 otherwise he wouldāve matched. Said he has no idea how theyāre able to offer that price.
Not at all. I think that goes for any Bronco though. I am now a celebrity at work. The VP of our company, who never converses with the peasants like me, asked me to show it to him and spent 30 mins talking to me about it.
Thatās cool! Makes sense. They already have the capability to be amber, so just needs the software to tell it to stay amber. Iām personally not brave enough to mess with the coding, but thatās cool to know
You cannot change the color. It will be raptor exclusive like the F-150s. Iām sure with aftermarket you can make them amber, but in terms of stock there is no setting or switch to change them. Maybe through forscanā¦?
When you use turn signal or lock the vehicle they flash amber. They stay white...
Will a magnet attract to the body of the Bronco? I have magnetic koozies and they would never stick to my ā21 F-150. I can test it on the bronco this evening and report back.
Also, I find the soft top to be super quiet. No sound difference between my 21 F-150 and the Bronco under 65mph. Going 70+ you get some noise if itās windy but ultimately still quiet. Only thing that says āHey you have a soft topā is when a diesel or vehicle with big tires passes. Squatch Tires...
Youāre so close! This part of the wait is excruciating but your day is randomly going to go from 0-100 when you get that text/call. Hang in there š
Thank you! Hopefully yours escapes purgatory soon! Your checklist came in handy and my salesman added some of the things to his Bronco inspection list form so they can help others too!
Itās unfortunately my dadās fault. He knew this is the one that would take $$ over sentimental things, but it was intended to be his vehicle in the end so my dad caved and gave it to him. He didnāt even have to guts to tell my father. My dad was crushed, but it cannot be undone.
He did give me...
This is very emotional for me. My dad always had a Bronco when we were kids and I have lots of memories playing around in one. When my oldest brother turned 16, my dad bought a 1974 and we all fixed it up together. He ended up giving it to my brother and that was the āfamilyā Bronco up until he...
