  1. What would be a realistic towing capacity?

    Maybe so, it wasn't me personally so he might've left something out. I just remember him being extremely upset about almost getting his first ever ticket because his insurance company randomly canceled his policy, he's never had an issue since. And I've always been under the impression most have...
  2. What would be a realistic towing capacity?

    Few years ago had a close friend who’s insurance company cancelled his policy after an accident he wasn’t even at fault for with nothing else on his driving record. So while I wouldn’t say it’s the norm I def wouldn’t put it past some insurance companys to cancel if it’s found you were towing...
  3. First Edition Bronco reservation on eBay for $15K

    I could see a few paying over MSRP on the misguided notion that first edition actually means its worth more sure. But like I said I could also see some of these ending up on dealer lots and sitting for a long time because there’s really nothing on it you can’t get on a different model so why pay...
  4. What would be a realistic towing capacity?

    There is a liability factor to it. You can be ticketed/fined for negligence for improper load carrying in most places(which insurance won’t pay for), and could found at fault for the accident even if it wouldn’t have been your fault otherwise. So while that might not get your insurance company...
  5. First Edition Bronco reservation on eBay for $15K

    Whatever ford calls it doesn’t change my point that it’s only a normal bronco with some special cosmetics. I wasn’t saying it wasn’t limited edition, just saying it’s nothing fancy and doubt it’ll hold any high value because of it. Rare or limited doesn’t simply mean increased value. If it was...
  6. First Edition Bronco reservation on eBay for $15K

    It’s a limited edition trim package, not limited edition vehicle. It’s still just a bronco, not even a bronco with a bigger more powerful engine or anything upgraded except maybe some cosmetics(and some would argue while limited certain specific add ons aren’t upgrades). The only thing that...
  7. Muscle Car Owners Poll

    Germans also make v10s, but that doesn’t mean an M5 or M6 with the v10 is the same class as a lambo v10 or a viper v10. VW also had a V10 in the touareg, should I say the M5 is equal to that? Muscle cars aren’t just about the engine or even just being fast, it’s the style. A muscle car is more...
  8. Muscle Car Owners Poll

    It’s not a kit. There are a couple kits I know to do the same thing, but I put this together myself for cheaper than buying those kits. Small halo is an 80mm RGB led ring with a diffuser. Larger halo just replaced the stock white led with more powerful RGBW cree led. Also wired them to flash...
  9. First Edition Bronco reservation on eBay for $15K

    I bought a new motorcycle out of state last year. I got a manufacturers certificate or origin not a title, took that to tag office to get it registered and only then was title was made up and mailed to me later. So I guess I technically could have sold it to someone else before I registered it...
  10. Who’s getting this 684 HP setup on their 2.3 Bronco????

    Yea price is a different point, but that doesn’t make the work any easier or harder to get there. Similar amounts of work on each motor still net better results on the V8. If price is a factor then you probably wouldn’t be comparing to the V8 to start with anyways, more costs all around with...
  11. Who’s getting this 684 HP setup on their 2.3 Bronco????

    Well yea, an eco boost engine already has the power adder, I never said naturally aspirated would get those high numbers, but the 2.3 isn’t naturally aspirated to start with. It’s a detuned power adder so of course simply tuning it will have a nice jump, but you’re not getting 600hp without a...
  12. Who’s getting this 684 HP setup on their 2.3 Bronco????

    I’m not sure I’d consider this easier to tune and build than a V8. New rods, crank, pistons, custom cam, bigger turbo, high pressure fuel pump, larger injectors, good tune. Can just as easily take a V8 and do similar work, change the cam, throw on supercharger or turbos, and tune for 700-800+...
  13. First Edition Bronco reservation on eBay for $15K

    With that free local pickup thrown in its really a steal of a deal. Id have expected them to be from Colorado not montana. Expecting someone to pay $15-25k just for the opportunity to pay another $65k you gotta be smoking something.
  14. Cruise Control with a manual

    I’ve currently got both a manual car and a motorcycle that have cruise control. And have driven multiple other newer manuals with cruise control. I haven’t had any issues with it. And depending on the vehicle might not even have to downshift for most hills(unless ya really mean mountains). Never...
  15. Towing package content?

    If there’s a backup sensor that beeps at ya then you might actually want wiring with the bike rack, typically a plug plugged into the trailer plugin cancels the backup beeps. Unless a constant beeping anytime ya reverse with a back on the rack is no big deal to you. Guess you’d get used to it...
  16. Towing package content?

    Electronic brakes come on the trailer, so why would there be any mention of it on the vehicle other than if there is an actual brake controller(which plenty don’t have until you add one aftermarket). The 7 pin connector is what’s used with those trailers over the 4 pin, one of those 7 pins is...
  17. Second Thoughts on Manual Transmission

    If that’s what you prefer it to be better at. A kale salad is better at keeping me healthy, but I’ll still always take a steak if given the option. Nobody’s going to say the steak is better for healthy eating, but that’s not the reason I want it. The auto is better at things I don’t really care...
  18. Second Thoughts on Manual Transmission

    Which is a preference. Not everybody cares about being faster thru gears. Otherwise original autos would never have sold to anyone. They sold because people preferred to not have to deal with a clutch over preferring to be faster. And now manuals still sell because some people prefer to have a...
  19. Second Thoughts on Manual Transmission

    But by your own admission manual owners are already paying for it by driving in traffic. Plus isn it convenience you pay more for on anything so that’d be what you autos are really paying for. Though I would pay more for a manual in most vehicles if I had to. For me, weekend or traffic same...
  20. Towing package content?

    At first glance it does look like a tow mode button(looks like the small trailer emblem I’ve seen on different tow/haul buttons), but looking closer you are right, it’s a bronco silhouette not a trailer silhouette. Granted not sure what fords tow/haul buttons look like, but this is what I was...
