  1. Trading Jeep Gladiator for Bronco

    I rented a new Gladiator Willies for a cross country trip a couple years ago. The Gladiator is cool in its own way but if you value highway ride and handling the Bronco is vastly superior. I prefer my Bronco on the highway over my other two cars, but 10 minutes on the highway with the Gladiator...
  2. Clutch & Cylinder Failed at less than 900 miles. Dealer denied warranty claim

    That isn't just a defect that is major abuse. If it wasn't you it was somebody else, probably the idiot who test drove the Bronco before you bought it.
  3. Clutch & Cylinder Failed at less than 900 miles. Dealer denied warranty claim

    Okay Okay Okay if the warrantee was declined at 900 miles there is more to this story. If you revved the engine and did a clutch dump you deserve to not to have it covered and should have to pay a big fine in addition. Yeah -- I've seen people do this testing driving a brand new car. Talk...
  4. Bye bye privacy!!!

    Obama already knows my blood pressure and when I flush the toilet, so what if he knows where my Bronco is?
  5. Got some new trail beauty marks at Uwharrie this weekend

    This is the reason I think the Ranger Raptor is the best Raptor. Not only is it far less expensive than F150 and Bronco Raptors, its not so huge.
  6. Guess how much to fix

    Body shops and insurance companies will replace more than necessary for liability reasons. If I were you I would avoid insurance and just pay cash unless covered by the other drivers insurance. Probably cheaper to buy a replacement bumper and bolt it on, or a good time to upgrade to the modular...
  7. Car wash etiquette please

    Either way is a lot better than leaving it on the ground.
  8. Bye bye privacy!!!

    You do know that vehicles have been equipped with data recorders for decades, right?
  9. Ford Patents for ultra-surveillance/data collection in vehicles

    This is nothing new, vehicles have been equipped with data recorders ("black box") for decades. With a court order they can download everything. For connected vehicles like the Bronco and most new vehicles you can turn it off if you're worried about it. They used data from Alex Murdaugh's Chevy...
  10. OEM Wipers Not Cutting It — Best Upgrade?

    My OEM wipers still work great after four years. They work as well as any other wiper I've had, and replacement wipers don't last as long in my experience. Bugs? Man you must be using razor blades for wipers if you found something that will take off bugs.
  11. Are you a top tier gasoline user?

    360,000 miles and going strong with 87 regular and Walmart synthetic oil -- that is what I call a happy ending.
  12. We love Broncos but… what’s the most annoying “small issue” with your Bronco?

    It was the windows snagging on the weatherstripping. This was an adjustment issue, did the procedure myself to make sure it was done right as Ford dealers didn't know what to do. It took awhile to get used to the wind noise but don't even notice it anymore. I still wouldn't trade it for...
  13. Safety Recall 26S09 / 25V540 (Blank Screen) completed with OTA Update SYNC-26.2.4.11

    It lowers the HP by 30% and the torque by 50% to meet the new CARB standards.
  14. Bronco newbie must have mods for mpg and wind sound

    If correct that is impressive for a Badlands SAS! I get around 21 with my bare bones base around town, but a Badlands SAS is a different animal for sure. Maybe you had a tailwind on the highway stretches?
  15. Bronco newbie must have mods for mpg and wind sound

    Nice Bronco! You made the right decision with the painted top, seen a few of them around and they look nice. That's the best $1200 upgrade anyone can spend on a Bronco. As for MPG the Badlands model isn't exactly the best choice for that, but the best way to improve MPG is keep your foot out...
  16. Bronco newbie must have mods for mpg and wind sound

    " Broncos are noisy gas guzzlers." Well yeah if comparing to a Prius but its par for the course when it comes to 4WD trucks. My Base manages 21 kicking around town, not bad for any truck.
  17. Bronco Hybrid Confirmed! by Ford CEO Jim Farley (4/2/26)

    Man this referring to hybrids as "electric" or "EV" has everyone confused. Your PowerBoost is not included in the California EV tax because it is not an EV. It runs on 100% fossil fuel and you are paying your tax every time you buy gas. EVs don't run on fossil fuel but still use the roads, so...
  18. Bronco Hybrid Confirmed! by Ford CEO Jim Farley (4/2/26)

    This went right over your head. Show me the charging port on a Prius, Maverick or any other hybrid vehicle? What they do have have is a place to put in gasoline, because they run on 100% fossil fuel. If having a battery and electric motors defines a car as an EV, than my 22 Bronco and every...
  19. Bronco Hybrid Confirmed! by Ford CEO Jim Farley (4/2/26)

    Hybrids are not electric and they are not EVs. You don't charge them and they run on 100% dead dinosaurs and whatever else is in that amazing black stuff. The "hybrid" part is a means to capture some of the otherwise waisted breaking energy. Hybrids like the Ford system is an ingenious design...
  20. What boots or shoes do you wear when wheeling?

    Pro tip -- If you get called to the police station for an interview don't wear the same boots. It didn't work so well for Russel Williams.
