Never should have.

I beach drive a lot for fishing and to access some good areas I have to go down some narrow dirt/sand roads and get pinstripes. What I do at the end of the season is get them buffed out by detailer with full detail for $300. That's $3,000 spread out over 10 years, but add some more for inflation...

I have an accessory I never put on I as decided I did not need it, so don't like it as I wasted money. Personalized badges to replace your OEM fender trim badges. Before they arrived I took of my BD fender badges. Decided I liked the clean look so well I left it clean. I must be the only one as...

OP just described a situation that involved a cop and wanted to state they did not want to make it a whole cops are good or bad thing. Will you get pulled over for auto high beams going on and off like OP did? A cop posted above it was not reasonable suspicion and OP should not have been pulled...

Great rainbow of colors! I'm a 2 door guy, but the HE looking good 4 door.

Yeah, I would not look at a '21. I took a chance on a used '22 with 10k on it (MIC 2.0) and it has been great. Shop around. Consider a new '24, but I am sure you can find some used '22 or '23 with low mileage and a discount.

In my experience the Bronco auto lights are pretty sensitive with fog/rain and seem fine too me. The auto high beams are too sensitive IMO and turn the high beams on and off from things light street lights when I would prefer my high beams on given deer.

Haha. That's called muffler delete.

Cool. Now you just need some control arm skid plates. About $25 each.

I agree, which is why I am 265/70 (32"). Mostly beach driving just fine aired down, though wider would be fine too. Otherwise I am on pavement, so narrower for handling and mileage. For snow you want a narrower tire when not aired down on pavement and wider aired down off road. Mud wider. Rock...

So if I read this thread correctly (did not get to all of it), 4A in my Bronco is not the same as my AWD only Explorer. Still not sure I understand why. And while they may be different, my Explorer has the same dash setting that shows how much power is going to rear and front axles/wheels...

Ok, so here is my advice to Ford for the Bronco. In upcoming model years have a "custom" setting so you can start the Bronco in whatever mode you want - whatever combination of 2H, 4H, 4A, slippery, sport - whatever you prefer and use most upon starting. I think that would be a huge seller.

Can you set it to 4A default or do you have to hit a button on the steering wheel to stay in 4A each time you start the Bronco? That's one annoyance for me, but perhaps I am missing something. I have an Explorer that is AWD only. I just get in and drive.

Also ain't nothing stopping me from putting a front locker on my BD that comes with a rear one. I'm just pointing out that I think it would have been nice for Ford to have an "option" for LS on the Bronco (I had an option for a front locker on my BD with SAS). Jeep offers LS as an option and...

Agreed. But I will say I have 4A. I don't use it all the time on pavement. Only in very slick conditions. Very heavy rain. Conditions where pavement may turn into snow. So, I generally use 2H on pavement. You never know if you will drive into something slick and and LS is always on on the rear...

I have been driving sand for decades 150-200 times a year fishing. Never had a locker until now. No real prob, but LS helped. The few times I got stuck and recovered a locker may (again may) have done the trick, so happy I have one now. In my OP my point was on pavement in 2H something slick may...

Nope. But I'd like to have it if needed. Since my off road is beach driving fishing much of the year, I don't really need a locking rear diff, but nice to know I have it if I need it. Also, a LS would probably be more handy on sand than a diff, though I gave a 2H pavement example for a LS.

I get Broncos are made for off road. Bought mine as a new beach buggy as I work up and down beaches fishing many a night every year. However, we all drive the Bronco on road (many most of the time) and I explained how LS would be a nice option on pavement when in 2H.

Looks great! Having a BD, I love the interior colors/look as my bias says its the best. Wheels look great. The WT black wheel rings with stainless bolts may be my favorite wheel look yet!
