  1. I just drove a new Ford Ranger w/ 2.3L from Alabama to Pennsylvania

    Thanks. Corrected. Added boost PSI.
  2. I just drove a new Ford Ranger w/ 2.3L from Alabama to Pennsylvania

    It's more accurate that it wasn't designed for that level of compression and turbo, and they made material substitutions that harmed the durability and functionality. So. It's based on the Mazda L engine, which was a cast-iron block, and became the Duratec engine. So this engine started life as...
  3. Is the new Bronco a "classless" vehicle?

    It's 3.5/Pathfinder Fighter. Vanilla unless you pay extra for sourcebooks.
  4. I just drove a new Ford Ranger w/ 2.3L from Alabama to Pennsylvania

    The 2.3 wasn't designed from the ground up to be turbo'd, it was an addition and a redesign. It's a strap-on solution. The 2.7 with CGI block was made to be what it is, and take the compression, heat, and abuse of a turbo. I prefer having an engine designed to do what it do from the start. I'll...
  5. Raptor to get motor from the current GT500.....

    For that matter, people complaining about towing and troubled by the soft offroad suspension could steal this. https://www.thedrive.com/news/30092/next-gen-ford-f-150-raptor-will-ditch-leaf-springs-get-coil-spring-suspension-report Edit: You could also theoretically drop-swap for 5500lbs...
  6. So are the electronics (screen, GOAT selector, etc..) waterproof??

    Marketing material says they're all water-resistant. All the electronics, all the switches, they're supposed to be sealed with silicone. How much that gets you IRL is a little harder to say. Edit: Since people don't search, source from Ford. Under "High Tech Interior."...
  7. Bronco White Tops, Multiple Vinyl Interior Colors & More Confirmed at Ford Employee Event

    Where we'll be if Ford doesn't give the B&P in September.
  8. My first official decal for my Bronco which doesn’t even exist yet

    Good news! BBotE comes ready to drink, and it's tasty hot or cold. The method of extraction gives it more caffeine and better taste, since the dude who invented it made it for his diabetic friend. Bad news, it's $25 for a single 375mL bottle, with I think slight discounts for returning the...
  9. My first official decal for my Bronco which doesn’t even exist yet

    Not a fan of Death Wish; they sacrificed the flavor on a dark altar and I'm not a fan. Now, Black Blood of the Earth coffee, I like. ... They offer supercritical liquid nitrogen vaccuum extracted Death Wish with MOAR caffeine, but - again, not into the flavor.
  10. FORD HEAR ME OUT PLEASE

    Eh, maybe it's more complicated than think and it'd be hard to do a la carte. I'm getting the washout interior, but I'm fine with it being only on select trims. Seems like NBD to me as long as everyone can get it on a budget trim and an expensive trim. I do hope there's at least two choices of...
  11. Gimme the White interior!!

    I would appreciate it as an option. Ford should be listening... Well, please.
  12. Let's get real on maintenance

    I heard you had to tilt the truck and shake it while hitting it at the Ford '57 mark to get the last bit out.
  13. What does your wife think of the new Bronco?

    I am the wife They are the wives I am the Bronco Goo goo g'joob
  14. Custom vanity license plate for Bronco?

    DOAFLIP PUSH X BRNCBRO SQCH IT PNPLPZA
  15. First Edition Bronco Will Have Navy Pier Interior Option Only

    Indigo is a construct; I refuse to acknowledge it. Also, brown is just dark orange.
  16. 2021 Ford Bronco Makes NYC Debut at NYSE (Aug 17) - Pics, Video, Q&A

    From what I can see, it depends on your definition of "removable." And your definition of "hand tools." It'll probably take a little work with something that spins and cutss if you don't want a new dash.
  17. Aux Switch Uses - Ideas??

    1. Arming for hitch-mounted jet engine. 2. Ground-penetrating radar and metal detector for prospecting, displayed on information console. 3. Dramatic chariot spikes. 4. Retractable steps (for tripping people). 5. Dramatic fog machine and rave lights. 6. Cake dispenser, no lie.
  18. Theory: The Two Reveal Broncos Were Meant To Be Concept Vehicles

    I kinda hope they are marketing to people who buy once. This might be the only new car I ever buy, and the last car I buy. ... So maybe I might have bought motorcycles I don't even have a place to put them, when I maybe couldn't exactly "afford" them... But cars? BIFL. Hell, I'm about to buy a...
