  1. I guess I am old. What else have you noticed.

    When was that? I had a 65 Mustang with one side mirror. Had a 2nd one that had two side mirrors, but I think the second was was probably scavenged from a 66 or 67 because it didn't quite match. Didn't have backup lamps until 66 either.
  2. I guess I am old. What else have you noticed.

    My 69 F-250 had a manual choke. My little sister couldn't start it. Mom had to show her how. She still doesn't know what a choke is or does mind you, just "the little lever you have to pull out to start old cars"
  3. 2028 Jeep Wrangler Scrambler

    Under 50k, with a stick shift, and this is VERY interesting.
  4. I guess I am old. What else have you noticed.

    I'm 53, and call the accelerator the "skinny pedal"
  5. As a Bronco Owner, What’s Your Breaking Point?

    1 - this would totally grind my gears. 2 - Not realistic - other vehicle owners are jealous. 3 - Bronco gets the best gas mileage of any vehicle I have ever owned. (Mustang GT is slightly better on the interstate) 4 - Sounds like cope 5 - ahh, that would because I took the wife somewhere...
  6. Two door LWB??

    Main reason I bought the 2-door is how small and cramped the 4-door is from the driver's perspective. Especially with the short doors and the B-pillar jabbing you in the shoulder. Would love to have another 6-8 inches of wheelbase, commensurate cargo space behind the rear seats, and larger gas...
  7. When off-roading, do you use goat modes or do you manually configure your Bronco?

    Pretty sure I haven't touched the stupid dial more than twice since I've owned it.
  8. 5 tire rotation: local Valvoline were confused

    Discount has no problem. But, Discount's default 5-tire is different than the manual, so I always print the rotation pattern for them so the order stays the same. Stupid Bridgestones are finally about shot, next time I'm just going to tell them, rotate the best two to the rear and the worst...
  9. Ford Ranchero EV Pickup – News & Info

    Other Daughter has a Subie. It definitely drives more like a normal car. It's also a manual. I think the manuals are biased 50/50 and the Auto/CVT are 40/60. But dear lord is it expensive when things go wrong.
  10. Ford Ranchero EV Pickup – News & Info

    Had a 96 Contour Sport. 2.5L, 16Valve, manual. Drove great in a straight line. Always cornered funny. Any time I drive the daughter's Escape, same thing, corners funny. I absolutely detest Front Wheel Drive.
  11. Ford Announces Employee Pricing for all as part of 250th anniversary of America's founding

    I assume this is fake employee pricing like last time that does not protect you from outrageous DOC fees unlike actual A-plan, X-plan etc.
  12. How far did you travel to pick up your Bronco ?

    23 miles. Pretty sure this is the 3rd closest Ford dealer to me. Closest one are complete sleazeballs.
  13. Clutch & Cylinder Failed at less than 900 miles. Dealer denied warranty claim

    That seems about right. Just dropped a clutch in the daughter's stubaru and it cost $2600. Extra labor on an AWD or 4WD vehicle. Mustang was less than half of that.
  14. Will it be totaled?

    She's a gonner.
  15. Orange Fury discontinued as of 2026 Job 2 production, but Oxford White Heritage Edition w/o Decals Being Added

    Orange fury to dead grey. This is as bad as when they changed Ruby Red to Black. If I order a color, and white/grey/black shows up, I'm refusing delivery.
  16. Ford Announces Employee Pricing for all as part of 250th anniversary of America's founding

    So... last time they did this it was weak sauce not as good as X-plan. Basically X-plan but without the fee protections on BS Doc fees etc. But it did drive sales.
  17. Ford Announces Employee Pricing for all as part of 250th anniversary of America's founding

    Possibly. With shipping from Iowa, it was about a wash for me to buy from them or order from a Local AZ dealer.
  18. Ford Ranchero EV Pickup – News & Info

    Can't, sideways engine, FWD. Bleah... Which is why we need a normally mounted engine, RWD Ranchero on the Mustang platform.
  19. Ford Ranchero EV Pickup – News & Info

    Once again, my offer to the Ford Bord of Directors stands, I will happily serve as CEO of FoMoCo for one half of what you are paying that idiot Farley. Coyote with Manual option in the Bronco. New Ranchero on the Mustang platform, with Coyote and manual option. CAFE is dead - everyone gets an...
