My concern with the ASS is when the motor is hot and the engine shuts down at a light - is anything keeping the oil circulating through the engine and turbos?
Personally, I hate it. I think the vehicle stalled - and am like "oh shit" and then I remember it is just the ASS - and I turn it off.
I've been waiting / talking to the dealer for 6 weeks - still only the 42,000...
There is a great youtube video on what the dealer is supposed to do. I need to send that info to the person, soon.
2-Door was definitely an advantage squeezing through some of those twisty trails.
Honestly, I was very happy to be able to do everything I tried even without Sasquatching. With the gain in confidence, I am looking forward to pushing the envelop a little more in May.
I was at an off-road event in Florida and a couple in their 20's slept in their 2-door. They had a shelf built inside to level the back and their feet were in the direction of the seats (vs the rear door). They said it was fine.
My wife and I ended up sleeping in our 2-door 1 night due to...

While I'd love a V8 Bronco personally, we are literally a dying...
The map they put out (on facebook) has the trails and OC (obstacle course) listed as stock friendly, modified friendly, and Requires a Winch and a Friend. I am looking forward to seeing the "Modified friendly" to see how many of us Bronco owners can do that. I think it will be many as I think...
I went easy for 1500 miles. First oil change will be at 2500 miles - definitely early by at least half.
Yeah, I'm babying her a bit but she does go off-road and play in the mud, so it is a balance...
On the plus side, if he designs something that survives his driving you know that stuff is tough as shit and will surely stand up to the abuse most other drivers will put on their vehicle.

I'm looking forward to seeing that Green in real life. When it was first revealed I felt it was too dark but maybe in standard light it looks good. Still a shade or two too dark from ideal for me, but if I was in the market for a Bronco in...
